Re: Time Off Of Work - MMA Surgery

Thanks so much for the quick reply! That's what my oral surgeon said as well (3 weeks). I'll plan on that and hope for the best. I'll be able to have my laptop setup so if I feel up to it I can catch up on some email in the second week. I'm obsessively planning and it's still quite a ways out lol.

Pros and Cons of MMA Surgery

I'm going to have MMA surgery later this year. I've done a lot of personal research on the surgery via message boards (like this site), research reports, YouTube, blogs, etc. The surgery is recommended by my oral surgeon due to my restricted airway, lack of energy, fairly severe overbite, etc. I wou...

Second Time Wearing Braces - How long before MMA Surgery?

Good afternoon everyone, It’s my first time posting here and I tried looking for a similar question but with no luck. I went to my consult with the oral surgeon in December 2017 and said I’m a perfect candidate for MMA and insurance will cover it. Yay! He noted that my bite was holding really well f...
