Guest guest Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 Sounds like you're trying to promote this " book " here. As I've said before, the only Amazon that it's been on is probably the famed river, where someone who wasted their money on it tossed it. I've offered to review and promote the book (I run several sites) but the " author " hasn't taken me up on the offer. I still think some or much of the info was copied from one of my sites. The few that I know that purchased it (it's not a book, it's a file you download) were completely dissatisfied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 I'm not at all trying to promote this " book " . I haven't even read it and was taking it to the group to see if anyone had. I seen that you could download it for a cost or buy it for a bigger cost. If you know people who weren't happy with it, that's good to know. > > Sounds like you're trying to promote this " book " here.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 I haven't either. But I do remember seeing a couple of posts from folks who found it a real waste of a chunk of money. I'd suggest that you read around here in the links and the back posts, and on oss2, and I'll wager you'll know more than you'll ever learn from that publication. And always remember that your doctors are your very best source of info. They know your mouth and your problems, and what they're planning to do about them!

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 I might add that, for my money anyhow, you can't beat the cookbook with advice that Beaudette (no kin to Fiddlesticks) puts out for a fraction of the price of the other " book. " It's one of those spiral bound booklets, but has a ton of advice as well as recipes, that she's gleaned from years of working as an RN in the care of jaw surgery patients. Just one caution. Do remember that every one of us is different. Very seldom will everything mentioned as a difficult outcome happen to one person. There are a lot of possibilities. Some things may happen to you, and some things probably won't. I had lower advancement, wasn't wired, wasn't numb, had little pain. Did have a splint, bruised badly, and felt pooped for a long, long time.

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2005 Report Share Posted March 31, 2005 Thanks for your advice. I go for my orthodontist and oral surg consults are on 4/6 so I'll know more then. -Lori > > > > Everytime I have did a search on orthognathic surgery the website for > > the book, How to Survive Orthognathic Surgury pops up by Sach Silva. > > Apparently this guy went through the surgery, wasn't pleased when he > > tried to do research so wrote his own book.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 I really liked this book that is on the zip and squeeze website and it is very inexpensive.
