Guest guest Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Hi all I am 11 weeks out from surgery (Upper and Lower Advancement) and am having trouble opening my jaws as wide as my surgeon would like. I can only get my mouth open 20 mm and I can't move my lower jaw from side to side at all. My surgeon has me doing excercises by using my fingers to force my jaw open and holding it there for 10 seconds. I am finding this painful and it doesn't seem to help, I am stuck at 20mm. Two questions, is anyone else having trouble with this and does anyone have any suggestions as to how to improve on these excercises so I can open wider. Thanks Hilary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
