7 Week Check-In (Day 46-49) : Burger Biting! Nerve sensation coming back

My chin is getting more and more liquid sensations, and now random pings of pain pop up randomly. It's actually a little obnoxious at times. I'm glad the mental nerve is regenerating now, at roughly 1-2 months in, ahead of schedule. From what I can glean online, full nerve sensation (if ever) can take 6-12 months to come back. The fact I'm feeling as much as I do now is a pretty clear sign I'll probably have full recovery.

Just to be clear, if my nerve regrowth on my face were to stop today, I'd still be completely happy. There's no points with 0 sensation, and only the lower half of my chin has lets say 80% nerve sensation at this point, which makes shaving weird but otherwise is fine. As long as the inside-out sensation gets remapped correctly given time I've got no issues.

My face swelling feels exactly the same. My bite is definitely connecting better nowadays. I was able to bite into a 100% normal restaurant burger the other day. It was absolutely glorious. I could use my front teeth to bite down, I still have to jut my lower jaw a little bit for teeth connection and the braces get in the way. But this was a bite I haven't had in 2 years. My jaw strength and opening size have increased as well. I can chew pasta/lasagna and soft meats easily now. In terms of my bite contact the left half seems 100%, the right half is say 80%, with only the back molars and pre-molars not touching with a 1-2mm gap.

On to Day 60 (2 month check-in)
