I had my surgery cancelled and then rescheduled and I thought it would be months before they would get me in but it was about 3 weeks.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10929294898350206763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328682455236712965.post-75285381839745159062012-09-23T14:06:00.683-07:002012-09-23T14:06:00.683-07:00Thanks man, appreciate the feedback!

The surgeon and my ortho both mentioned possible surgical expansion though but I'm not sure if its definite yet. I should find out more on Halloween when he gives me the d/l on what type of surgery he's gonna do.

I tried to find other instances where they just moved the lower jaw to fix and open bite and I cant find any so I'm curious as to how he would even do it. My teeth are interlocking now so my guess would be that the jaw would get moved to the right and then he would take a piece of bone out somewhere in the back to tilt the lower jaw up. I dunno I can't wait to see the presentation of what he decides on. My teeth are literally still sore almost a week later from these suresmile wires. Mostly in the back now, but they are clearly moving them around so its bittersweet. From what I've read the time to move the teeth is greatly reduced with this technology so I think I might be fortunate. Anyway I've obviously still been following your blog to the most Terra and you're super close! Good luck, I can't wait to see and hear about your results!CrazyMofo107https://www.blogger.com/profile/14847273610605935375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6328682455236712965.post-6509242177264892192012-09-17T17:31:51.753-07:002012-09-17T17:31:51.753-07:00Oh awesome!! looks like everything is coming toget...Oh awesome!! looks like everything is coming together. <br />My surgeon was talking about just the lower jaw because my orthodontist had messed up a while back but I decided to stick with double jaw because the results are a lot better and I don't know if you have this problem but I don't have enough room on my palate for my tongue so I'll keep pushing my jaw into an open bite. I'd double check that with the surgeon. <br />Congrats on being pretty much surgery ready, thats such a good feeling. <br />I wonder how much of a difference the suresmile makes because I feel like my teeth have taken forever to move to this position. <br />Incognita https://www.blogger.com/profile/10094613755561267960noreply@blogger.com
