10 weeks post op

I visited the orthodontist yesterday...we changed out my wires and got rid of the wires with the lugs on them with was nice.

I am still working on my exercise to get my mouth open wider..I was up to 19 Popsicle stick but feel like I have lapsed...now back to about 15.  My jaw is very tight and sore.  Also I have not been as diligent as I should be about doing my exercises.  I am working on that.

Dr Tunjay mentioned that my mid line was slightly off when I bite so I need to adjust my bite..I need to starters wearing a rubber band whenever possible to help with the adjustment.  It is just getting used to my new bite where it should be and how my teeth should line up.

I go back in three weeks for a sure smile scan.  They will scan each tooth to come up with a 3D image the. Will computerize what movement needs to be done.  Sure smile will make the necessary wires for the needed movements.  I don't have a timeline right now but hope it is not much longer!

All for now!
