3 Months Post Opp


OK so today is the 30th September which is 3 months and 3 days since my surgery!!

I still have some numbness on the inside of my chin and my gums but other than that its all healed nicely!

I now have elastics on my braces which are very annoying! But its the final stage of my braces!! My orthodontist said that if everything is looking good at my next appointment they will take my braces off at the appointment after that! So hopefully i will be brace free either just before Christmas or just after!!!! Cant wait!!

So happy with the results so far and to be honest i have completely forgotten about the process and how painful, scary and emotional it was! It is such a blip in my life! Cant believe its been 3 months!

Nothing else to report! I will post again once the braces are off!!!

10 Weeks (ish) post opp

Update! 

I'm really not very good a keeping a blog! If anyone is following my journey i apologize for not updating sooner.

OK so everything is going great! No problems to report so far! I still have some numbness in my chin but to be honest i dont really notice it! My nerves are also still coming round so i have some sensitivity in my gums at times and a few aches in my jaw where the bone is still healing (takes 3 months apparently!). Other than that i'm really happy with everything! 

My bite is still in line and my braces are still moving my teeth into the correct position! Not sure if i mentioned in a previous post but i am getting elastics on my next appointment (yay :/) to help align everything! 

Other than that there is nothing to report! Hope you all had a good summer!
