Settling In
I have had the retainers for a couple of weeks now and I must admit that they aren't too bad. Once I got over the initial soreness and "customized" them so that they didn't wear a hole in the underside of my tongue. I think that the best thing so far is being able to take them out for eating and cleaning my teeth. I can actually eat without worrying about food dropping out of my mouth or getting stuck in the braces. My mouth still feels clean when I am done eating. Beautiful!

Hi Apnea Mom,
I know it's been awhile since your surgery & since you have posted on your blog, but I wanted you to know how much I appreciate you sharing your story in so much detail. I am looking at having MMA surgery this summer and it helps me so much to know at least somewhat what I can expect. I feel like if I can get through the first few weeks, I can handle anything!
Anyhow, thanks for sharing--it really is helpful!
