Link to it is - http://jacintasjawsurgery.com

Thanks, me too!

I definitely will keep the blog up, it's nice to document it for my own records but if anyone out there finds it useful too then that's great.
This forum is so helpful, so much information here in the one spot.

Thanks again

I am also Aussie and looking getting braces next week and in years time double jaw surgery so sounds like we are on a similar journey

How are your braces going now ? How impossible is our healthcare system and working out costs for private health it drives me insane

Good luck with your journey :mrgreen:

Hi ridingboots,

Love your name! What kind of riding might I ask?

Sorry for the late reply I've been super slack in updating my blog as well. Braces are going well, I haven't noticed any real changes but the adjustments sure do cause discomfort for a few days after.

I'm with you there re costs! I found it very hard to find info online to be honest that's why I though I'd start my own blog, so other Aussies have some info out there!

Your braces would be on by now right? How's that going for you?

I have my braces and can see changes with my front teeth and coping really well with them. Came up with ridingboots many years ago as msn chat name And kept it as I have horses and ride regularly

Have you had more adjustments

Hey Ridingboots! How's your journey going! I've had a tonne of adjustments since the last time I replied and also have had 2 appointments with a surgeon in relation to my jaw surgery. Time flies huh?!
