Braces to now

Before braces

I Started the treatment when i was 17 and had my wisdom teeth and other teeth surgically removed. Once i had healed up my braces were put on. I have now had them on for just over 2 years and can't really remember what it was like without them i am due to get the hooks put on in july ready for the big break. I'll post some pics of before my braces and now. Bye for now

My Big Break

Hi my name is Emily, i am a 19 year old student nurse at the moment. I am going to be having a bimaxillary osteotomy with genioplasty on the 3rd August this year to allign my teeth. My bottom jaw is too small and by top jaw is to big and so the will break them both and move top one back and bottom one forward. Due to the bottom jaw being moved forward my chin is likely to jut out and so basically it will be chopped down a bit, sounds simple lol. It should take about 6 hours with a five day stay in hospital. Then food will be the biggest battle. I am doing this because i have been looking at others and the help and advice of people who have had it make a big difference, so hopefuly i can help other people.
