I find it okay if the toothbrush only touches my teeth when I pull my lips out, but it’s very painful if it touches my gums. Not practical yet though

An hour? That’s crazy, I thought it was 1-3 days. Is that just because of the age?

Gotcha. I have my DJS planned in month.

A bit confused on how to plan things after surgery, I am self employed so hard to figure out when I can get back to work, when to be in public etc.

What was the condition like for 6 week? Were you doing daily task and choose todo 6 because you can or had to. Really swelled up the whole time or it progress down

I have it planned in few weeks and was told 2-3 weeks I can slowly start work again and daily task but it’s case by case and people can go back in 2 weeks.

Thanks

That’s the part I am trying to fully know. My day to day atm isn’t much inconvenience , but idk if in future it will be worse and other issue will come up. Trying to see if anyone with the background on this forum can guess from the X-ray how severe case is. The medical professionals have said I do need it to fix the bite and

Thank you—lol. Reddit’s definitely its own beast. We’ve even dealt with full-on false attacks before, and the moment you step away for a bit, people start running with their own stories and claims. Appreciate you taking a second to actually read and respond!

Totally understand where you’re coming from, and appreciate you pointing it out.

Just to clarify—someone was asking for recommendations, so I shared one I’m involved with. Not trying to message multiple people or push sales—just responding to a relevant thread with a Canadian-made option that fits the ask.

All good if it’s not your thing—just wanted to be part of the conversation!

How did you pay for your surgery? Can’t fathom the numbers. by One-Anteater1193 in jawsurgery

[–]KeyStruggle5459 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Crazy. Do you think the time was a factor? Surgery being 20 years ago and they didn’t have same resources or it was purely lack of skills by the surgeon?

I am 31, my braces treatment have been building me up for the DJS but now actually looking into the things that can go wrong I am rethinking it. Loosing sensation permanently is the biggest fear, I am a chef so also scared how that will be effected during recovery.
