I need the same surgeries. Thank you so much for posting! How are you doing now? Please post an update it’s been too long! 💗

Have you gotten your double jaw surgery yet? I’m considering sarpe surgery right now.

Hi maddie! Would be great to know how are you and your surgery journey? 😊

Would love an update!

How is it going now?

Hello i hope you are well can you please post an update if you’ve had jaw surgery yet. I am undecided if i want to get it done but i have an underbite instead.

Update!

Need an update please!! :) hope it’s going well for you.

How are you? Haven’t gotten a video since sarpe I hope you are doing well.

When were you able to eat soft foods again? I have something up on Day 5 and wondering if I'll be able to eat something and have energy for going out. Thanks for your video! I've watched it 3 times already.

I just found your video and found it quite comforting. I'm having SARPE surgery next week and feeling some nervousness!!

can you give an update?

i'm doing the surgery tomorrow ! and i have the same type of teeth as yourself, here's to a great smile !

Thank you so much for posting these videos of your process. I’m going through a similar situation with SARPE surgery and an expander as well as braces and double jaw surgery to bring my upper jaw forward and my lower jaw backward. It’s weird because I know so many people have these procedures but going through, you can’t help but feel alone. I hope you’re process is going well! Hope to see more videos! Thank you again!

stopped updates after surgery. Hope everything is going well.

Update please Maddie

Did you have to have braces fitted before the operation? How much was your orthodontist involved in the surgery? I'm asking because I want to have sarpe abroad and my ortho is a bit funny about it... Like if he needs to overlook the whole procedure....

Any new updates?

Why did you decide to do the procedure? I’m on the fence on doing it.

Please continue to post about your journey!! You’re a natural on camera and it’s so you’re very informative!

I am so glad other people think exactly like me! I have been having this debate with ALLL the same reasonings and I just cannot decide what to do 😣

How are you today??? :)

Did you now feel that you don’t need to swallow constantly because you now have enough space in your upper palate and keep your tongue in the right position ?And did your speech improve drastically now that your mouth is spacious and your tongue is hitting the backs of your teeth properly ?

Hey Maddie Hope you are well? Can we please have an update x

I need this surgery soon. Will watch your videos to know what to expect. Thank you!

I am in the same situation .. I need just surgery but scared to shit ... I was told by my consultant that surgery will not fix the sleep issues etc or pain in the jaw..I don't know if they just want to discharge me ...hence the weird answer. I have sever overbite and had it all my life ..I won't have anyone to be looked after by after the surgery. Had the braces for few years just need the surgery..but not sure if I will b happy with the results

Hello maddie, I am having my sarpe tomorrow, my lower jaw and upper jaw looks exactly like yours and i’m on the same journey 🌸 i hope things turn out good for us♥️ good luck

How much did Sarpe cost?

can't wait to see the next update!

<3 great video

Very brave of you to have these surgeries and for charting your journey for us. It will all be worth it though for your health. Your breathing and sleep will really improve. Wishing you further healing and looking forward to the next update x

How long did it take before you could exercise? I am getting the surgery in 2 weeks.

Thank you for posting about your surgery. My son is having SARPE in two weeks time. Where did you hire the face cooling machine from? Is that better than using ice packs?

I know that I would like this surgery, but I am scared of the permanent nerve damage or loss of sensation. Right now the surgery would be for cosmetic reasons only.

Great video! Relatable. Great set up.

Hi Maddie - how have things been in the last month or so?

I love how calm you are talking about this topic. I think it is a very emotional topic but you help a lot with the way you talk about it and with your video in general.

Thank you for creating this video and sharing it with the world. It’s very well done! I just had SARPE 4 days ago. I agree, it’s been uncomfortable but manageable. I think it’s just the mental side of dealing with the many strange sensations and the insane amount of pressure I feel around my jaw that’s been challenging for me! Also quite constant drooling! Lol! Like you said though, keeping a little busy and distracted is helpful. I’m definitely more swollen and bruised than you on day four, but not too bad. One day at a time. I’m excited to see this gap open up! Good luck with the rest of your journey!

Gosh, you're brave! This will be so worth it when all of your procedures are finally over. 💕

My oral surgeon said I could get my pallet expanded during double jaw surgery why is it that I see so many people getting sarpe surgery?

You are a lovely narrator of your pending adventure in jaw surgery and orthodontics. I wore braces twice and I will be forever grateful to my parents that they cared enough to get my awful overbite fixed. Best wishes for a satisfying outcome!

ّI had my double jaw surgery two months ago, as you said it is such a struggle, the recovery process is not easy, the braces are so annoying. I am so glad I did the surgery but I am really dissatisfied about my chin, the surgeon convinced me to bring it forward, I was not ok with the idea and I wish I did not accept that, it is soooooooo painful, even now after two months of the surgery it hurts me a lot, I cannot talk or close my mouth because of the pain, everything else is fine, my TMJ symptoms are gone, my breathing is great, I am no longer snoring at night and my neck pain is gone, it's only the severe burning pain in my chin, I wish I did not do it, I would be fine by now :( I wish you the best with your journey, please try to discuss every single point about your surgery with the surgeon, if it is not necessary to do your chin I advise you not to do it because the healing of the chin bone takes longer. Good luck

Hi Maddie, thinking about doing this myself. Mind me asking how much this procedure was? Thanks!

Your story is pretty simular to mine. Braces then retainers I grew out of ending in a over bite again they way I ate was awful I can totally understand that. I'm 36 and decided last year that I had to do this journey to get my confidence back. I've currently had braces for 3 months. The spacers and braces are far more painful as an adult and the soft food diet has been in place since I had spacers. I miss food so much. 2 days ago I had my wisdom teeth removed in prep for jaw surgery. This is not a good place for me right now. I'm in a lot of pain with a mouth full of stitches and on a liquid diet again. I now have to recovered from impacted wisdom tooth surgery for at least 6 months before they will book my double jaw surgery. It's a very painful process I'm not going to lie but watching my teeth already move Is very satisfying. I wish you all the best on your decision and just remember that it is going to be worth it in the end. In regards to NHS that's the route I'm going. The whole process from me agreeing to having braces has been 2 years but I spent 14 months waiting due to covid otherwise I would have been straight in. My surgeon does both private and NHS and the care is no different and the waiting list isn't that long. Like me you are fully entitled to get NHS funding as it's medical not cosmetic. When worrying about getting married in braces once they are on and settled you will embrace them and have a beaming smile as you know your on your journey. I doubt they will remove them for a short time to get married as teeth will revert back very quickly when not being held in place. I wish you all the very best

Wonderful to get an update from you Maddie; good to see things have gone so well! I also appreciate how honest you are about the ups and downs of such surgery - this will help others who go through similar surgery in the future to see that any of the nasty bits they experience are nothing to panic about, and that there is light at the end of the tunnel! I wish you all the best in your continued recovery and look forward to your next update!

When are you getting the surgery my case is similar to yours but I’ve a pretty wide palate already but recessed chin

Thank you for taking us with you on your journey. Good luck with your surgery today!
