My before pictures

#1 Post by freakyteeth »

I'll have to transfer over my previous jaw posts from my personal blog.

Here are the pictures from two years ago. Need to update what I have now.
Be afraid. Be very afraid.

You've sure been through a lot of really un-fun stuff! Good luck on your surgery!

Thanks. I really don't look that bad as in those pictures. There is something about those mugshots that are not flattering.

Hi, I just wanted to say that I checked out your blog.
You have been through so much. Good Luck with how things turn out. I agree about the mugshots, whenever I have mine taken I refuse to look at them. Keep us up-to-date on your outcome.
Best wishes :rose:

I have also had three surgeries and have written a blog too about my experience including a sarcastic paper that was sent to my blog by old orthodontist (we have proof so can say this) - it was sent via an import - unfortunatly I can't post pics of my radiographs as I wasn't given any.
The Link to my blog is http://miniscrewfan.blogspot.com/2011/0 ... .html#more
Luckily things have started to improve now.

Since I'm new to the whole orthognathic surgery thing I've been reading as many blogs as I can. Freaky Teeth, I would love to see how everything turns out. Hopefully you can transfer the new pics.

Hi freakyTeeth,
Did you leave a comment on my blog? I deleted it as I didn't know if you were being sarcastic or not? I couldn't see anything about your Masters' on it. I'm sorry if my blog offended you in some way there is no reason why it should have done.
My blog also contains photos of me now too- they are near the bottom - it seems we have both got something in common - we have both had ridiculous things said to us by dental professionals.
My very best wishes to you. :rose:
