Hi Michelle,
I'm Sharon. Had my surgery in January of this year. On my first opturator with teeth.lol I speak for nasal most the time. But when I go in for an adjustment it's much better and then by the time I go back i'm nasal again. That just means it needs an adjustment. Just be sure and tell your dentist about if there is pain or any problems. This is your permanent one you have? I wish you luck and it will be fine. Just one day at a time.
