When I can talk a little better,” I will make a video to tell you how it was. Thanks again!” Capello commented.

Sleep apnea is a condition in which a person stops breathing several times during sleep, then wakes up suddenly. Capello mentioned that during the surgery, he had to break his jaw, pull it forward slightly and remove all four wisdom molars to make it easier to breathe.
The solution is orthognathic surgery, which I will undergo in a few hours. The surgeon will break the jawbone to pull it millimeters forward, open up a space in the nose and remove four wisdom teeth, as I would need, with braces, for a tooth regeneration. Of course my appearance will change.
