Hey all,

I just woke up from a long winters nap. I had the oral surgery yesterday afternoon. The only thing I remember is watching the IV drip for a minute or two, and then waking up in my bed.

I do not have much pain if any at all. Actually I feel a lot beter since I've had the teeth removed. I had four of my front teeth and one molar removed. I have a temporary bridge in now and will have my new partial plate put in in a few weeks. I have very litle swelling. It even seems as though I'm able to speak better now. I can pronounce sounds more clearly than I could before.

Now it's back to the HOB therapy on Monday to finish up my last 10 dives.

I'll let you guys know if anything else comes up.

Regards,

John

Great news, John. Good for you to post about how easy it was for you so that anyone else facing a similar procedure will not worry excessively. So glad you are speaking so well.
