For the past couple months I have been having problems with my jaw. It has been out of place, severely. A couple people on these forums have already known about this, but I went to the doctor today, and came back a sad man. Very sad indeed...

The history of my jaw is I have always had a horrible bite. I have a crossbite, underbite, and overbite. Not to the point where it is noticable, but to the point where it is causing problems.

The past couple months I have not been able to move my jaw to the left at all, and have had limited mobility moving it up and down.

So, for all this I went to the doctor today, my 3rd doctor visit for this problem. The doctor diagnosed me with a crossbite, overbite, and underbite. And has pointed out that this is the problem that has caused my jaw to slide out of place over time.

The fix? Braces and surgery. At first thought I was thinking, meh, it won't be so bad... wrong was I...

The braces don't bother me, it is the surgery. The doctor has to fracture my jaw at both joints, and possibly other locations, move the jaw into the correct position for a correct bite, and then I have to wait for it to heal up into place.

Along with that, they have to pull a few of my permenant teeth, and do some other things. I have to miss alot of school for this, which I am not happy about, and this will be very painful.

If this is not done, I will develop Lockjaw, in which, I will not be able to move my jaw at all; Lockjaw can be life threatening.

Out of all this, I just hope nothing goes wrong, and I don't end up with a defective jaw...
