Guest guest Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 HI Charlotte! Nice to hear from you! No worries on the delay i dont get on here much either! Congratulations on making it to the " other side " ! Glad to hear that you are doing well! How lucky are you to have your braces off before you 18th! Congrats on that too! lol. Bet you are really pleased about that and will be out celebrating in style with your new found confidence! Great isnt it? As for myself, i had my operation 3 years ago (you maybe got me confused with another person on here). I had upper and lower, RPE and sinus work to correct a class III under bite. Which surgery did you have again? My mind has drawn a blank. Hehe. How long will it be after your surgery to when you get your braces taken off? I had my surgery on the 1st of august (2002) and had my train tracks off in feb 2003. I wasnt totally brace free though as i had to and still do wear a retainer. Do you have to have a retainer? wow you can eat almost everything at this early stage! Im impressed! I was on a strict liquid (blur) diet for 6 weeks and then i had to eat a diet consisting of " MUSH " for the following 3 months. I think it was christmas dinner that i attempted to eat solid food. I guess it goes on the type of surgery you have! HMMM... Im glad that you found the NHS good. Ive been with my ortho and surgeon since i was 13 and have had no probs with the service. I think that their great. I know that i wouldnt have been able to afford the surgery if i went private! So i am really greatful for them helping me! Cool well i am going to go and check out the photo section as i havent been able to in what seems like years! Congratulations again! Nice to hear from you! Hope you continue to recover as well as your doing! Take care Kind regards Kat_UK > > > > > > > > Hi.
