Heyy ! I had the similiar surgery but with the rotation of my jaw. It’s been 14 days since the surgery. First day I was bleeding from my nose and also vomitted blood 3 times. I started talking like after couple of hours. Then started to drink soup and fruit juice. On the second day of my surgery I tried to consume mashed food and actually it went well. For now, I’m still not allowed to chew anything. But if you’re reading this comment and want this operation done, just know that It worth the pain. The result will be perfect :)

I’m very nervous I’m 15, and get it after my braces straighten my teeth, I have to also get my wisdom teeth removed during this process aswell. I just wish it could be fixed tommorow, unfortunately I have to wait 8-9 months or 10 depending how fast they straighten. This made me feel better.

I was told 2+ years ago before I can even get braces I need SARPE Jaw Surgery ! Not in a position to do it now , ZERO support and a ton on me. But researching , tons of prayer 🙏🏻 and watching things like this to prepare. Mine is a birth defect because my mother didn’t get enough Vitamin D & K2 in pregnancy…..plus my mother ISNT entirely to blame , she wasn’t healthy herself to have kids, my brothers and I, but her biological mother didn’t care for herself in pregnancy with my mother drinking Coke and eating bad and my mother has suffered 73 years due to this, and in a sense so have I.

Yes. I had mine done three weeks ago. First you will be on a liquid diet for two weeks. I have a blender so my food was anything that can be blended. Also the Ensures aren’t too bad. Also invest in a few ice packs. Use these to help the swelling. Also take very good care of the inside of your mouth to help promote healing. I was prescribed a mouth wash to use three times a day. Also I have a fat syringe that I use to rinse my mouth out in areas of the mouth that’s difficult to reach. Don’t be afraid to brush your teeth, but stay away from the gums until everything is completely healed.

I’m doing well. Thanks for asking. Most all the numbness has gone…just a little on my chin and bottom lip. When I eat I have a little popping on the left side but not a big deal. I was told I’m still healing. It’s only been 3 1/2 months. My braces might be coming off my next appointment which is December 11. I never really had any pain. Took some ibuprofen to help with swelling. I didn’t even take the hydrocodone.

It really varies on insurance as well as what surgeries you need plus where you live. For my underbite surgery and and genioplasty my surgeon quoted me $17k (this is without any insurance). Keep in mind this doesn’t include hospital bills for the stay or anesthesiologist or the braces even (which are also expensive). It’s not cheap at straight cash value that’s for sure. Again this is just my personal experience and will differ for everyone.

All went very well. His recovery was WAY easier than we thought, especially after watching these videos! His pain was well managed, so he said the worst part was the liquid diet! He lost 8 pounds. Also, his lips were so chapped and sore from the surgery, so when the doc had to reattach some rubber bands/examine after surgery, stretching his lips was pretty painful. His surgeon was outstanding. I ordered syringes and tubing from Amazon for "eating" and had lots of good recipes for smoothies, soups, etc., so that helped. I hope it goes as well for you!
