Re: photos - to Katja

[Guest guest]

Hey Irene,

I saw your photos... you need more post-surgery pics up! BUT the

few you had up there look great! Are you pleased? I think I read

somewhere that you mentioned to someone about some assymetry still?

How is everything turning out with having your crooked smile

corrected? I went in with a crooked smile too.... since I still have

swelling around my mouth and the splint in, it's hard to tell what

the end result will be yet.... Did you have lower only, or upper and

lower? Thanks for pointing the pics out to me! I need to get some

posted soon myself. Katja

Hi Katja,

I'm still figuring out if I'm pleased with the results or not . I

think in general, I am. But since I'm still in discomfort because of

the surgery, it's hard to be pleased . But chin assymetry is gone,

the underbite is gone, my chin looks smaller, and I'm much more

comfortable chewing on both sides of my mouth (before I chewed pretty

much exclusively on the left side). But I have a crossbite now, which

should be fixed by ortho, and the way they rotated my jaw caused a

small overbite on one side of my mouth, causing the lower lip to

appear assymetric. I hope this will go away as well. Also, my TMJ

doesn't click anymore - that's kinda nice. I will probably like the

results more and more as the residual swelling goes away. What about

your results - are you happy? The first couple of weeks it's hard to

tell how you will look like because of the splint and swelling, but

you usually start feeling better about the results as the time goes by.

Irene.
