Guest guest Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 I am now 3 1\2 weeks post-op and just started my soft food diet this past Monday. Up until 3 weeks post-op I wore my bands 24\7 and now can take them off 3 times a day for 2 hours at a time to eat and brush. I can barely open my mouth wide enough to fit a fork or spoon in my mouth. My question is for those of you who are further along post-op than me is how long did it take for you to be able to fully open your mouth? Also, how long did you have swelling and numbness? I had upper\lower\chin and my upper palate expanded on Feb. 14th. Thanks in advance for any feedback!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
