Way to go Sara for the good check up!! I had a 3 hour Physical

yesterday. I thought I would never get out of there...(haha) Few

minor things they found, but nothing major. My appointment with the

surgeon has been changed from 6/6 to 6/14. So that means only one

appointment remaining with the 0S before surgery. Our big day is

drawing closer, especially yours!!

I have no idea and I'll be interested to see others' answers to this

question. Six months is the usual recommended interval between

cleanings, but all I know is that as soon as my braces come off, I'm

going straight to the dentists for a good cleaning and bleach! Luna

hey i think it's wonderful we are talking about things we're going to do

AFTER the surgery. it keeps things optimistic and it just shows that we do

see the " light at the end of the tunnel. " i can't wait to hit the dentist

for a good scraping and cleaning! mmmmm. .. right now, a visit to the

dentist is at the same level as a yummy truffle. just over 4 more weeks!!!

(till i'm unwired)

Tue, 24 May 2005 13:06:14 -0000<br> & gt;<br> & gt;Well I went to get my teeth

cleaned yesterday at my dentists for one<br> & gt;last time before surgery. At

the end of the appointment the<br> & gt;receptionist asked me when I would

next like to come in for a cleaning<br> & gt;and I realized that I had no idea

how long it would be before I would<br> & gt;be able to keep my jaw open again

and without suffering any<br> & gt;consequences. For the veterans on the site,

how long did you wait<br> & gt;before you got a dental cleaning post-surgery?

I'll be asking my<br> & gt;surgeon this question as well but I thought I'd

survey the group's<br> & gt;responses. Oh, and thankfully no cavities were

found! I hate drills<br> & gt;too:-(<br> & gt;<br> & gt;Sara<br> & gt;<br> & gt;<br>
