After surgery my jaw will be all fixed up and I'm sure it will look 100% better.

It went really fast for me. I am amazed at how much of a difference I have encountered, and it wasn't all that painful. I had my days mind you but not as much as I thought I would.

Thank you to both of you for the complaiments. It always makes someone feel good when their hard work is shown.

Thank you.

I'm just amazed at how rounded they became. After my Upper and Lower jaw surgery everything should be normal, I hope. I go in an the 29th of this month to talk to my ortho about my surgery. He thinks I'm all ready so he wants to make some imprints of my new staight teeth and send them off to his brother, who will be doing the surgery.

Your arches look fantastic!

They are rounding out nicely.

I'm always curious about these jaw surgery's.

When I look at your jaw I don't see what's wrong. May I ask what they're fixing?

I don't think I have a straight jaw myself but my ortho never said anything about fixing any jaw problems. I'm just curious what the surgery entails.

thanks.

Okay I need the surgery because my teeth have an overjet of like an inch and they overhang to the left side like an inch. So my bite is totally outta wack and braces ain't going to fix that.

Thanks for asking I don't mind filling people in on what is going on so if anyone has to go through the same thing.
