Congratulations to the three of us! Yes, I'm getting my braces really

soon; my OD appointment to discuss his ortho plan of action is

Tuesday morning. One of my OMS's assistants told me Thursday that I

can go ahead and get braces put on, prior to my OMS appointment on

July 18th for my 1st of two Orthognathic Surgery consults.(The first

one is the work-up; the second a few weeks later is the discussion of

his surgical treatment plan and a question & answer session). My OD

and my OMS have already had their discussion of my case. Looks like

this is really going to begin for us! We might as well eat all the

forbidden foods now, because we won't be able to later.[popcorn,etc.]

Let's keep in touch! ~~~~ Diane

Hi Diane,

Well, we could each be in braces really soon then! I am excited

about it, but apprehensive too. I know we will get used to them,

but that intial " breaking in " period is something I am dreading. I

call Monday to see how to proceed with the OD. His office said

everything is set up, he just has to talk to my regular dentist, who

will be doing the full mouth rehab when the surgey and braces are

completed. Here we go!
