Guest guest Posted March 8, 2004 Report Share Posted March 8, 2004 O ok, thanks for the info:D Yeah maybe thats true b/c i am a little bit younger. I am having the one where they cut ur top jaw basically off lol and move it. I think its what they call Lefort I. I am having it because my top jaw is under developed. I don't take what u said offensively or anything at all, actually it is nice to have opinions. Im not trying to be big headed or nething but he also said u cant tell at all that i have this problem from the outside. I could never tell, i just did when they finally straighten my teeth out and it had been a while since i had last been to the orthodontist b/c i had to rescheldule appointments and all and it moved. He does around 3 jaw surgeries a week all year round and many of them are adolesents or w/e they call us. I am also having my wisdom teeth removed and maybe the lower done if it needs to be moved to match up the jaws. I prolly think its ok b/c the surgeon i have has his own patented tools he uses that cut the surgery time far far down. His name is dr mauro hes in lansing, mich and i live in mich so its all good. If i had decided to have it at University of Michigan my surgery would take around 6 hrs, but with the surgeon i have it will take around 2 hrs. Quite a difference i do believe lol and no dont wry i dont think what u said was nosey:) Good luck to all of u recovering and recooperating right now, my time is almost here, o boy lol and THANKS:D > > > Ok, i have read some of the stuff that is involved with upper jaw > > > surgery, but what are some of the bad effects like lets say up > > till1 > > > month post op...b/c im 14 and i have to go back to school after > > > around 10 days so if u could just give me info about ur experience > > i > > > would really appreciate it > > > > > > THANKS > > > Tori Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
