    Hey everyone :)
    Hope you're all keeping well!

    I've just come across this really good stuff to help healing and recovery. It's called Glutamine and you can get it in powder form. It's an amino acid which promotes healing, (also a brilliant hangover cure ;) )

    Just mix it up with a smoothie or maybe a bit of ice-cream, you can get it in any health food shop.

    Hope this helps some of you. I just got my 4 wisdom teeth out and its working wonders for me, surgery in the summertime hopefully!

    Hi Sarah thanks for the tip. I'm also expecting surgery in the summer. I'm quite
    Anxious would be good to know how your getting on closer to the time. x

    Surgery hopefully (kinda) in the summer. Scared, excited - wish I could fast forward 24 months but then life is for living so I plan on making the most of it!!

    yes im perfectly happy getting the surgery. an open bite is when you're teeth at the front dont meet and theres a gap between your top and bottom teeth.

    Hi Sarah - I dont exactly know yet.

    I definately need my upper jaw moving out but it depends on my braces if the bottom need moving in. If it is just the upper jaw he said he would do a genoplasty (spelling?) as its a bit pointy.

    I am happy with the sugeon I think he seems nice I've only seen him once and been with the ortho ever since. She said I would start having joint clinics in June.
