If i had to do it again, i wouldn't...... My lower jaw was moved forward 7mm cos i had an over bite..... I couldn't take the codeine they gave me because you can't get pills in a wired shut mouth. Also, i tried crushing the pills and making a paste. I couldn't get anything thicker than milk into my mouth. I couldn't even eat soup. I literally lived off milk for 2 weeks. NO SHIT!.... The pain didn't go away for 6 months, still now it's stiff in cold weather. Another thing.. The right side of my lower lip tingles when i touch it, the nerve is damaged for good. It's something that needs to be thought about long and hard... [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by spapad from Tuesday, March 31, 2009 9:37:04 PM)

My daughter has to have that done sometime in the next couple years. It's gonna suck! I'm sure. Known friends who had to have it done, the only advantage is if you feel you need to loose a few pounds. LOL............ No really, I sympathize with such pain.
