Guest guest Posted July 8, 2004 Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 It has been 9 weeks since my surgery and I still have to wear my splint full time (it is wired to my top teeth) because I can't open my mouth to it's original size. My surgeon gave me tongue depressers and told me to stack them up sticking them in my mouth until it was full and then add one more. I hate doing this - it gives me cold chills like fingernails on a blackboard. I have been using baby teething rings stacked up, but it's still not there yet. Any hints, suggestions, recomendations as to speeding this process along. I thought I would be out of this splint at 6 weeks. And frankly I am tired of soup and talking funny!
