A Guide to Surviving Orthognathic Surgery

I am a woman on a mission to share my experiences and to help others who may be going through issues relating to facial pain, facial deformity, TMJ disorder and jaw/orthognathic surgery. This blog takes you through my journey of facial pain, wrong diagnoses by doctors and orthognathic surgery. Along with this, I provide helpful check sheets, useful tips and leaflets. Feel free to message me or add me on twitter. Always happy to help if I can :) @jawandface
