Journey=Complete!

#1 Post by revolutionary »

Wohoo!

I saw my OS yesterday for Zoom teeth bleaching (PAIN! but worth it), and he says I am OFFICIALLY HEALED! They told me to "call around September" to schedule my next appointment!

I had my surgery on 3/18, and almost 3 months later, my journey is just about complete - I'm almost able to chew hard, crunchy things *comfortably*, and I'm pretty much used to my new bite and tongue position.

I am so happy with my results and the progress and my surgeon and his team. Things could not have gone better. Looking back, it feels like my surgery was just yesterday!

I posted my latest picture on the March 2010 buddies thread.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

It is an AMAZING feeling.

The bleaching is normally $600, but they charged me $475 since I was a surgery patient.
