I cannot believe it's been over 100 days since jaw surgery - thats quater of a year! Things are definitely back to normal, although I still can't open my mouth as wide yet, I still have a tiny bit of swelling in my cheeks and even though the braces are still on - jaw surgery is a distant memory.
I felt the need to show you guys this picture, of the bite I took out of a cake...
Before surgery, because my teeth didn't meet together i'd have to rip my food. As pathetic as this sounds I used to envy people who had that perfect bite in their sandwich, or their toast, as mine was a jagged mess..
Well, looks like I got it!!
I've also found a new love for the nasal spray otrivine. I've been taking it for my hayfever, but I wish my surgeon let me have this stuff when I was stuffy and congested! It is a god send!!
I'm so excited for you, I know exactly what you mean about biting things in a 'normal' way! I get my braces out tomorrow. It'll be you in no time at all.
