Can you talk with your jaw wired shut?!
Question:
Can you talk with your jaw wired shut?
I am about to get my jaw wired shut because of a mandible fracture. I wanted to know if you can talk or if its hard. I also want to know if i can play baseball. And my friends, what will they think?
Answers:
You will be able to talk, but it will be like talking now with your jaw clenched. It will be hard for your to talk, and for your friends to understand you. It will be hard for you to eat...puree of McNuggets sound good? As far as whether you can play baseball, I doubt it for the season...but that would be something that would be the doctors call. I am sure that your friends will be very sympathetic...You'll probably also lose weight.
