Guest guest Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 Hi , Your surgery is not far behind mine which is on June 28th. Well at least you get to enjoy the 4th of July versus me having to listen to all those fireworks trying to rest...(haha) At this point your OS may not be sure how long you will be wired until he sees how your surgery goes. But, I agree with Sara in that your OS would be the one to ask. There are a few on this board that have had the surgery at your age. I am sure your OS feels confident that you have stopped growing or he wouldn't have scheduled your surgery. But once again like Sara recommended ask your OS if you have concerns. Best of luck to you and keep us posted on how your pre-op preparations go! > > Hi my name is and I am set to have surgery on July the 5th. I > > am gonna have both of my jaws repositioned.
