Probably a dumb question, but do you have to refrain from laughing? I can imagine it being not all too comfortable during the first weeks. :/

[slightlypensive]

@ThePieIsLie Sort of. I mean laughing hurt for about the first 2 weeks but it's a good way to loosen up your jaws.

hi, im 17 and i have jaw surgery next month and i am so scared =( the inside of my mouth is way too narrow and its uncomfortable for my tonge, i have an over bite/buck teeth, and the top of my back teeth go inward...its just all bad.

but anyways, my mom says they will wire me shut wen im finished. is that true?? were you wired shut?? and how bad did it hurt?? were you sore??

[slightlypensive]

@MrsDardenxoxo I was not wired shut, just rubberbanded together tight for 2 days, but it's not as bad as it sounds considering you're pretty much unconscious (: haha

ohh did ur lower lip, chin, nd roof of ur mouth become numb after the surgery?

[slightlypensive]

@skywarrior3 for a couple months, but it's fine now :D

I had a nasty overbite and no chin at all and my mouth was too crowded for all my teeth. Both jaws broken+Chin implants and I could swear they gave me a nose job.

Do you have any numbness at all from your surgery? Cause I do and I had it done in January of 2010.

OH Boy. You should of seen my face. IT was blown up like a basketball after the surgery. I recall having the doctor get on top of me and place wires in my jaw while awake, without any local anesthesia. IT turned out quite great in the end. Now i'm in school for Maxiofacial surgery.

ur eyes look swollen

@slightlypensive did you have an over or under bite?

[ThePieIsLie]

@slightlypensive

Good to know it won't make anything worse at least. Oooh, and one other thing if you got time. How does it feel eating and washing the inside of your mouth during the phase when your jaw is banded together? I just had 4 wisdom teeth extracted a few days ago and I haven't been able to brush or rinse properly due to risk of opening the wounds, and eating has been tricky. I can imagine it being much more gruesome and tedious with a wound from jaw surgery. >.<

Thanks in advance!
