Guest guest Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 Hey all, I am having upper jaw surgery, and I'm not even sure if there is a technical name for it, or if anyone else here has had this procedure: i am having the roof of my mouth split in three, and the palate expanded. And I am also having the back of my upper gum/jaw area taken out, and the roof of my mouth and jaw moved up. Anyway, I'm not sure what a 'lefort' is, but maybe that is what I am having done... Anyway, I had a question about all of the lower jaw and neck bruising i see on some people's picture online. Like, a lot of people have green necks... Is that related to the lower jaw surgeries? And I am also having all 4 of my wisdom teeth taken out during the same procedure. Anyone have a good idea of how long it would be before i return to school? My surgery got moved back from Aug 8th, to Aug 15, and now I have 1 week before school starts. Any input would be appreciated! thanks!!
