Beginning My Mandibular Advancement Journey!: April 2008
http://leahsjawsurgery.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Beginning My Mandibular Advancement Journey! Monday, April 21, 2008. So I've been trying to come up with a list of yummy, crunchy, chewy (and any other adjective that is the opposite of "liquid"), foods to enjoy in the next few weeks before my surgery. The list so far:. Tacos ( chips and salsa of course). Salads (may not seem like an indulgence but I'm pretty sure I'm going to miss those). A nice big turkey sub. Anyone else have some thoughts on foods they will be craving? Tuesday, April 15, 2008. I have...

Beginning My Mandibular Advancement Journey! Saturday, May 31, 2008. 15 Days Post Op. Its been a few days since I have updated, so I'll recap:. First Post Op Appointment- They were pleased with how I looked (bite and incisions). For some reason it felt like I had 4 bands in my mouth, but there were actually only 2! Heather (or any other post-surgery friends), do you have what feels like a hard "pocket" of swelling near your jawline? Can anyone tell me why this is affected by surgery? My mom thinks maybe ...

http://leahsjawsurgery.blogspot.com/2008/09/we-have-date.html
Beginning My Mandibular Advancement Journey! Saturday, September 13, 2008. We have a date! Yes, thats right. I finally have a date to go on. My debracing appointment is October 14th! Later than I was originally told, but its fine with me! I am counting the days. My Ortho said that everything looks good, he just wants to let things settle a bit more before he takes my braces off. Congratulations and here's to your 'going naked' day being an excellent one! September 14, 2008 at 8:32 AM. So happy for you!

Beginning My Mandibular Advancement Journey!: Am I Crazy?
http://leahsjawsurgery.blogspot.com/2008/08/am-i-crazy.html
Beginning My Mandibular Advancement Journey! Tuesday, August 12, 2008. Anyway, has anyone read anything to suggest that nerve damage could become worse after initial recovery? I'm really hoping that its just me. going crazy. I can't answer your question. but I can say that I experience the same thing. Sometimes, most of my bottom lip feels incredibly numb. Unbearably numb. Sometimes, I think to myself, wow. I am not too numb today. Weird! I am confused as to whether it is all in my head, or the truth.

Beginning My Mandibular Advancement Journey! Monday, March 10, 2008. Can someone tell me how to add new blogger friends to my blog page? A few things on my mind. I'm excited to have met a few of you after only a day of starting this blog! Something that has been on my mind lately. have any of you who are recovering experienced permanent nerve damage to the lower lip, jaw, or cheek areas? I've been told that this is a possibility, however a small one. Has anyone heard of this happening frequently? I have ...

Beginning My Mandibular Advancement Journey!: July 2008
http://leahsjawsurgery.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Beginning My Mandibular Advancement Journey! Sunday, July 27, 2008. Yep so last Thursday I had my first dental cleaning since surgery. It was difficult with the braces. but I felt good knowing that my teeth were getting some TLC! I can't wait to have another after my braces come off. I'm worried that the braces may not be coming off as soon as he said they would. how long does it take to close two slight spaces? Monday, July 14, 2008. 2 Months Post Op. Nothing much to report:.
