I'm getting my canine exposed on the seventh of February. I'm not too nervous yet (I'm sure I will be the night before). I'm just wondering for the people here who have gone through it how much time passed between the actual exposure and the tooth coming all the way down?

I'm supposed to have jaw surgery, but I assume they're going to wait until my canine is down. And if that's the case, then I won't be here for them to do the jaw surgery (I'm military, and I'm leaving here May '08).
