This is my first time posting pics. I hope I did it right.

The top pic was taken a day before my BSSO and midline osteotomy. The middle pic is about a week later. The bottom pic was taken in March. It shows how crooked the left side of my jaw is.

Thanks John & Meryaten.

Yeah, my operation was on the 22nd and that pic was taken on the 30th. I didn't have a lot of swelling and I had absolutely no bruising. I go Monday to get my wires taken out so I'll post another pic of my mouth then.

Can that crooked jaw be fixed with braces?

I can only hope I have the results you have had. You look great. The lack of significant swelling and bruising is amazing.

Thanks, Iborg,

I'm real pleased with the results. It's so nice for my teeth now to have a place to rest.
