Guest guest Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 All, I just had my upper jaw advancement on Thursday and all is as well as it can be. Luckily my bite falls right into the splint, so I don't even need rubberbands. The swelling has been really moderate, and the numbness in the lips and front of my face has stayed the same since the surgery. I am keeping a positive mental attitude. I don't have much else to tell, but to say that the surgery went really well, and recovery looks good. I guess you can chalk it up as one of the good ones, since I know there are a few horror stories here. I wish others all the best of luck!
