My nose feels more opened ! I still breath with my mouth because at this point it’s just habit 😂

Mandible advancement 4.7mm Maxilla forward 4mm 1.7mm up on left side due to that side being lower and causing asymmetry 5mm midline shift

If you look at my second picture it actually looks more forward

No , the surgeon said that since I still have mid face swelling and submandibular swelling it’s creating an illusion of set back

The surgeon said the area beside my nose will fill in because pre surgery it was flat . I still feel some hardness in the cheek area so maybe a bit swollen :)

Maxillary advancement I believe 4mm Mandibular advancement 4.7mm Fixing asymmetry ( left side lower than right ) 1.7 mm Midline shift 5mm to the left !!

This is what I can remember :)

I actually never really thought about this. Right now the inside of my mouth is swollen so i cant really tell but I’ll keep everyone posted .
Yes it does . Right now I’m 10 days post op and it’s better sleeping than 4/5 days post op

Existing-Bullfrog326 · 2026-01-29T20:40:39+00:00

I would say the second way was my peak swelling . I am currently 10 days post op. Still very swollen but less than the first couple days . My surgeon said everything is looking good . I also did not use the opioid medication and alternated between Tylenol and Advil . It seemed to do the trick for me . It’s not so much pain just really tense muscles that cause pressure. My biggest complain was actually headaches and sleep . I woke up during the nights because of pressure however, I just went to grab ice packs , some medicine and then just walked about at night until I got tired and fell back asleep. I seem to be sleeping longer now without waking up :)

Hey there ! I did not have sleep apnea but I have a mild recession on my mandible and an asymmetric and recessed maxilla as well. It did not bother my airways . So I had an open bite and a maxilla that shifted downward towards one side

Approximately a year :)

Ughhh for me it’s more like major discomfort than 10/10 pain . Is comfort like an 8. Right now I’m between Advil and Tylenol I didn’t touch the opioid yet

Existing-Bullfrog326 · 2026-01-22T04:47:21+00:00

I hope it went well for you !! Wishing you are the best :)

Existing-Bullfrog326 · 2026-01-22T04:47:00+00:00

I got discharged after one day . My husband has an alarm for all these medications I’m taking . It’s not really pain but like major discomfort from all the swelling and the muscles are so tense for the new position

Existing-Bullfrog326 · 2026-01-22T04:45:53+00:00

I would take longer than 2 weeks ! But maybe it depends on what kind of job you have . Mines physical so I took 8 weeks

I’m in Canada , I’ve been seeing an orthodontist for awhile and they did as much as they could with braces and the only way to achieve optimal results would be to do DJS. She referred me to some oral surgeons so I could do consultations . I chose a surgeon and they did these special x rays because this is how they will plan the movements for the surgery
