descantus, that is exactly what I do, take tons of pre-biotics and pro-biotics before and after. There are also some probiotics you can take during antibiotic courses that are not killed by the antibiotics. I can get you a link to them if you want. I also think that the over-use of antibiotics cause...

When are you having surgery? If I am having mine before you I can let you know as I am also an in remission Chron's person. I have had a c-section 2 years ago and I was really afraid that I would flair up for the first time in years after that but I never did so I don't anticipate flaring up because...

Oh my goodness please keep us posted. I am so sorry and you are in my prayers

Yes, agreed, you do get what you pay for! LOL! That is what I assumed you meant

Wow, that stinks queenofoverbite. I am glad you are getting it fixed now. I had braces when I was younger too and my orhtho who was also very cheap for a reason didn't think I needed anything but braces on my front teeth only either.

So true ozzysmom, so true...

Thank you, I will try that

Oh yes, one more thing @chicago29, I actually don't know what exactly my new surgeon plans on doing.

My Oral Surgeon just called me to let me know what he thought I needed done to fix my open bite, underbite, small upper arch and recessed chin. My first surgeon that I have been seeing since Feb. thought I needed two surgeries. One to widen my small upper arch by 10mm which I am assuming would mean ...

Congrats! That is soon, looking forward to hearing how it goes Good luck, not that you will need it. Sounds like Dr. Reiche is a good doctor from what others have said.

I don't have any words of wisdom for you as I have not had surgery yet but I am having the same surgery, probably in March. I just wanted to say good luck!

Congrats and thanks for the great advice! I am also getting an open bite closed and widening my palate! Do you know how far they widened you? I hope your recovery continues to go well!

Wow! I am so jealous but very happy for you

Congrats! I hate my lowers too, they have always bothered me the most. When do you get your uppers off?
