Jaw Surgery Success


Posted by Diverbelo on May 23, 2001 at 07:24:29:

I just wanted to report that I had Oral Maxillofacial surgery (Jaw) done in March. Not only have I had tremendious success, no snoring, more energy, and I have had almost zero pain with the surgery. I only took two doses of pain med after I came home. The worst part was having my jaws wired shut for 3 weeks. I hated the eating liquids part. But lost 15 lbs. Was back to regular foods within 2 weeks after geting unwired. Sure beats the CPAP, and i highly recommend this proceedure.
