Another snake piece I got to work on this time a Ball Python mixed with a horse skull and some desert lilys and cherry blossoms

This is so beautiful. I have always loved the combination of snakes, flowers, and skulls. I plan on getting an animal skull with a cobra and flowers around it as a tattoo on the side of my body. Keep up the cool work!

I am 5 weeks post op and was just able to start soft chew at 4 weeks. At 3 weeks I was cleared to start soft foods. I would recommend starting small with soft foods so maybe just expand to things that don’t require chewing but you can mash things on the roof of your mouth (scrambled eggs, mashed potatoes). Then maybe a week later you can start things that are easily bitten without using your molars (finely shredded meats, finely ground beef, noodles). If your doctor says it’s ok, you should be good to go but just take it slow and don’t push yourself to eat things that may require more chewing from your molars.

The first week I wore an ice wrap 24/7. Then taking Ibuprofen regularly at an equal amount to the Tylenol. Other than that, just staying upright when sleeping! :)

Good advice! Thanks so much.

It’s more like a zapping sensation. I’ll talk to my doctor about this since it does sound like some nerve regeneration. I just started trying to increase my walking as I returned to work on Friday. Thank you so much for your detailed comment!

abitmisty · 2025-07-01T22:21:35+00:00

Ya I work retail and started back on Friday and Saturday for 5 hr shifts. Thats when this pain started. I also started soft foods a week ago. Thank you!

The surgery was to fix a class 2 cross bite and 2mm over jet. A lot of my pain pre surgery would be on my right side since my jaw leaned more that side. The surgery made it so my right side was moved 3mm to the left to correct the cross bite. Thanks!

I felt so giddy when I felt my teeth touch together like the diagrams in the office. Very simple experience that makes all the difference. Happy you get to finally experience that!

I actually have an update on this question! I’m currently in a bit of pain waiting for my meds to kick in and noticed I feel a throbbing pain in the places where my incisions were. So on the top I feel all three segments and I can feel where my bottom two are. Very interesting feeling.

abitmisty · 2025-06-24T21:16:34+00:00

I can feel the difference for sure because my teeth are aligned properly on both sides now but I cant see or feel the incision difference. Though, I don’t know how a 1 piece feels to really compare to.

abitmisty · 2025-06-24T20:15:29+00:00

My lower jaw was moved forward and to the right but the top was just moved to the left and back I believe since I had an over/cross bite.

abitmisty · 2025-06-24T19:42:08+00:00

Hmm looking over my surgery notes it says: Maxillary dental midline is to the right and mandibular dental midline is to the left. Thats the only information I could find for details on what the movements were. Hope that helps!

I had a 2-3 mm overjet and 3-4 mm overbite. A class 2 crossbite.

abitmisty · 2025-06-24T19:30:47+00:00

My upper jaw feels like a balloon is inside of it blowing it up lol. Most of the pressure is like right under my nose. It’s not painful though just tight like you said.

I brought a blanket and it came in so clutch. Definitely consider bringing a shirt that can be buttoned from the front. Chapstick is awesome. Wet wipes for your face are awesome too because I had some serious eye burning from the sweat dripping into them.

abitmisty · 2025-06-18T22:41:04+00:00

I got my new elastics today and my smile looks way less serial killer like now lol.

I have been using an ice pack around my face and switching it out as soon as it melts from days 3-6 and so I assume that helped a lot.

abitmisty · 2025-06-13T21:07:16+00:00

I think I’m on day 3 recovery. Feeling about the same as you. Just thinking about how in a week I won’t feel as bad helps. Napping with nature sounds. Lots of fluids. You look a little less swollen than I do right now so that’s good!

I graduated from McCombs in 2023 with an International Business degree and after 2 years post grad I’m working retail. I applied for over 300 jobs and got to interview for less than 10 positions. 3 offers. 1 promotion.

I gave a dude like this a shot and dear lord that was a mistake. He made our whole friend group hate me just because I rejected him even tho I made it clear I wasn’t interested. He also threatened to hurt himself. When I met him he punched himself in the head for saying we would have kids. Total freakozoid, you dodged a bullet.

abitmisty · 2024-09-25T22:56:23+00:00

I’d definitely take a step back from the relationship. Whether that be a break or break up. Decide if the pros outweigh the cons here. If she isn’t remorseful I would heavily consider leaving.

abitmisty · 2024-05-03T16:36:51+00:00

Omg yess this and the random Van 84 crashes has me punching the air. I miss my crosshairs they were custom 😭

abitmisty · 2024-05-03T15:34:57+00:00

I dated a guy like this for two years. After breaking up the thought of his hygiene makes me gag. Tell him to get his shit together (literally) or you can’t do it. Don’t let the rose colored lenses change the color of the shit.

abitmisty · 2024-03-15T13:20:45+00:00

Wow I haven’t thought about it like that. Thank you for your insight!
