Guest guest Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 I am 4 weeks post up from upper jaw surgery and have a question about opening my jaw. At my last visit with the OS (last week) he was not impressed with how wide I could open and instructed me to work at it. He told me that if I was not able to open more at the time of my next visit (not until December 30th thank goodness) he would consider sedating me and opening it for me. Has anyone experienced this and if so can you give me some idea as to what it was like. I am really working hard to exercise my jaw and it is getting easier but if for some reason he decides to do this I would like to have some idea of what to look forward to. Thanks.
