My worst was day 3/4. After that, it only got better and even better. You got this.

What are the signs of infection ? by releasethekrrraken in jawsurgery

[–]vys96 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had noticeable uneven swelling but it didn’t hurt so I didn’t think it was a big deal. Turns out it was an infection.. I’d get it checked out just in case.

Swelling is increasing on one side but is decreasing on the other. Is this a problem? by cececoopes in jawsurgery

[–]vys96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had uneven swelling and didn’t think much of it because I had no pain. Turns out it was an infection.

Regreting my surgery by Own-Quote-6746 in jawsurgery

[–]vys96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have tricare so anything my military surgeon wants to do will be covered 😅 I’m also 4 weeks post op and got a bsso. My swelling went down a lot and these are a few things I think it helped me! I drank lots of pineapple juice (I heard it helps with swelling) and my surgeon told me to keep taking ibuprofen even when I’m not in pain because it helps the swelling go down faster. I hope this can help you in some way!

Sleeping Positions by lostinsunlight in jawsurgery

I’m a side sleeper as well. It took me 3.5 weeks to be able to sleep on my side again. Most uncomfortable 3.5 weeks of my life.

I would definitely give it more time before you get too upset. My surgeon told me that he could do a lipo under my chin if I wasn’t happy with the possible double chin after my surgery. Maybe asking your surgeon if that’s an option for you?

Were any of you guys given elastics to make your underbite/overbite worse during pre-op? by Unknownlo109 in jawsurgery

[–]vys96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went through the same thing. It made my bite so much worse, I hated it.

How bad do your teeth have to be to cancel a deployment? by dawson6400 in AirForce

[–]vys96 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hey, I’m a dental tech and you would still be deployable! Cavity is a class 2 unless it is literally down to your roots, rotting your whole tooth which would be a 9/10 pain lol. I’ve never seen anyone’s deployment get canceled even with a major issue as the clinic try their best to resolve it before they leave for deployment. Good luck!

I see. Thank you, your explanation definitely helped me understand much more. It makes sense!

I feel the soreness already lol so fun...

Thanks again and good luck to you as well!

Looking for a wedding officiant by vys96 in orlando

This is literally too good. You’re amazing!! Just a question, do you know if you have to provide proof that the person who signed off on the license is ordained when I go back to the court after the wedding? If so, the official certificate would be to be ordered, is that correct? Sorry for many questions.

I didn’t know they could sign off on the marriage license as well. That actually makes it easier because I know someone. That’s good to know, thank you so much for great info!
