Voice Changes

[TheDude]

Hi,

I am currently waiting to get double jaw surgery for my underbite.

I sing and play the guitar and can sing okay but I feel like I can't project my voice very well and I'm hoping that when I get the surgery I will be able to sing louder and clearer than before.

I was wondering if any one who has had the surgery, noticed any changes in their voice?

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks

If anything it will sound better as far as announciation. I mean I have just braces and noticed that singing is clearer when I pronounce words, that it was when I had a hUGE overbite.

I have the same problem. I play guitar and i would sing but i can't because of my open bite. I'm waiting for my surgery! I think that when you have fixed your bite, our muscles will work well, relaxed, so is logial that the voice skills improves a lot.

Thanks for the replies

Yes I hope to be able to pronounce words more clearly because my voice sounds quite nasally at the minute and I get asked if I have a cold even if I don't lol

Can't wait to get the surgery over with, I know there is a good voice in me it just cant get out at the minute

Yeah! I fell the same thing, I know i could sing OK, but at the moment i can't do it because of the bio-mechanical misalignment.
