Guest guest Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 Hi Pam, That is fantastic news! I don't mean about the tooth sensitivity - sorry about that, but I mean about the clear retainer. I am definately going to ask for that post op! Thanks for the headsup about it. And that is great about being debraced ahead of schedule. I have had my braces in now for over three weeks, and while I think I have mainly gotten used to them, I am already looking forward to feeling the smooth of my teeth against my tongue again! That must be amazing! I am really happy for you that you are there!

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 Sorry ! I get so confused when I use the upword feature of the board, a feature I love, but it can mix me up (easy to do btw) about who I am speaking to. UGH! Anyway, please take those words as meant for you! lol Hugs, Fran > > > > > > > My teeth feel sensitive to the point where they hurt - > did > > > > > anyone > > > > > > else > > > > > > > have this during their recovery?

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 -Kev - Wow!! Congratulations on the debracing! You must be so-o happy to finally be at the end of your Journey. As far as the teeth sensitivity is concerned, try gently brushing your teeth with Sensodyne toothpaste - it has helped my sensitive teeth problems in the past. Please consider posting a picture or two so that those of us still on OUR journeys can see your final results. I'm only in the beginning of my journey - my braces have been on for 7.5 weeks. My surgery (BSSO set-back + LeFort 1-piece) will be next June. Again, congratulations and best wishes! ~~~ Diane (Idaho)-- In orthognathicsurgerysupport , kEV S <kevininhalifax2@y...> wrote: > Hey, talk about sensativity... I miss my numbness from surgery.
