Michelle! your teeth look great! =)
Hey Michelle,
Just got your comment. I will be posting within the next couple of hours. Just taking pre op pictures... Keep checking! I need you now!!!! hahahaha. In less than 12 hours I will be in surgery. I'm in denial.
Those pink ligatures are HOT! Every once in a while I wish I could have ligatures. It'd be more fun.
Also, your teeth look amazing!! All straight and gorgeous :)
Looking great Michelle!
Those ligs look great on your teeth! :-#
Hey lady. Your teeth are looking pretty darn good. Love the pink ligs. I swear, in the first pic you look like a 13 yr old. =D
I have to say it again your teeth look great! I also love the pink ligs. I have teal...lol anyway talk to you again soon.
Hey Michelle,
Thank for the comment on my blog. I"m so glad it has been helpful to you. As for your question about your teeth. I would have to say yes! My front teeth were super tender and sensitive for a long long time. I remember that it took exactly 15 months before I could bite into things and have it feel normal again. I remember this because it was only about 2 weeks before my second round of surgeries, so I was just getting my eating groove on, and then BAM there I was at square one again.
At one year post op my front teeth feel tender, but I can tell it is getting better and better, and feel confident it will just take more time. I figure at least a few more months before things totally settle down and return to their pre-surgical state.
So with all that being said, your teeth look great! and don't worry it will eventually heal up and you will be able to bite into things again. Since it looks like you will be having upper jaw surgery though, be prepared for probably at least another year or more afterwards of having to recover again in that area. It's a long journey....but trust me, it is so worth it in the end!
Good luck to you and keep on smiling!

Hey, chickie, besides looking your usual beautiful self (albeit with ever-straighter teeth!), I don't recal an update on whatever happened (or IS happening) with your lip situation. Did this stop being a problem? Did you find out if latex was creating a problem?
Just popped into my head :)
HEY Girlfriend, long time! Your teeth look awesome! Im so thrilled for you. I wish I could do some colors, well wait I guess I could if I wanted to. Just because I have porcelain, I guess it doesnt mean I cant do a colorful powerchain. Hmmm, Maybe next time I get one. Im so glad you are getting closer to your date, I bet it seems like forever. I wish you the best of luck and I will do my best to make sure I check on you more often. Wishing you the best! Talk to you soon.
I too love the pink :) Counting down to July 11th, not long now.
