Getting banded & cephed tomorrow

November 9, 2005

Hello, Tomorrow I am getting the spacers removed from between my 1st

and 2nd molars and my 2nd molars banded. And if that isn't enough fun,

I am also getting another Cephalometric xray taken, and a set of molds

done. So, it's " Gag Time " for me! My OD has decided to move all this

fun up a bit, as I am progressing right along. Actually, I think that

email I sent to my OMS a few weeks ago might have had something to do

with it. I told him that I was progressing along; my OD is taking very

good care of me which will be obvious when he sees how well my teeth

have moved into position. I think my OMS is just a bit curious; I just

hope he will be as pleased with my progress as my OD and I are. I have

an appointment with my OMS in December to finalize the procedures (BSSO

set-back and LeFort advancement 1-piece) he will be performing on me

next year. My OMS told me that he would know in Dec.(which is six

months from my surgery) if he will definitely be doing the LeFort on

me. I sure hope he decides that I need it, otherwise I will have a

speech impediment from the tongue that will be too long for my mouth,

and I don't want to go thru all this Fun(?) to have a new problem. I'll

keep you guys posted on any news that I might be able to get out of my

OD tomorrow. ~~~~~ Diane (Idaho)
