Guest guest Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 I am almost 3 motnhs post-surgery and have noticed (or been told by my wife) that my snoring has practically stopped. I can't find any facts about this, and my OS cannot confirm any science to this...might just be a result of jaw position, or sleep position, and my congestion is not nearly as bad. Has anyone else seen this? Jerry > Hi everybody, > I am 9 days post-op from a 3mm lower jaw advancement.. All considered > I am doing great.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 Jerry, I'm 5 days post-op and I too have noticed that my breathing (including snoring) has improved tremendously. I had my lower jaw advanced and genio performed on me. I'm going to ask my surgeon on Monday if this is a result from the surgery or if it's just my imagination. I must also say that I'm thrilled with the results of my surgery. I'm recovering very nicely with only a small amount of numbness on my chin.
