Jaw SX

Have you ever had jaw surgery? Or have you known someone that has?

I recently made a trip into the dentist. Worst. Trip. Ever.

He, like all of my other dentists, have suggested jaw surgery for my small overbite. He made it seem like it was simple and only a few weeks to recover. After immediately coming home and googling it I've made my own decisions. :)

Most people take up to SIX MONTHS to recover. How can you hold a job when you can't even open your mouth two fingers width? They also said that it is common for nerve damage. This means that you could possibly have numbness in your lips or chin F O R E V E R. What kind of person would suggest this type of torture to someone!!!???!!!

Maybe I'm a bit dramatic, but I also can't afford to lose lots of weight. If you know any information about this feel free to leave a comment!
