Genioplasty...?

Question

I am having mandibular advancement surgery for my deep bite.

I was wondering whether I should get a genioplasty as well. It is part of the surgery but is not absolutely necessary and would cost about $1200NZ extra.

Any recommendations from someone who might have had one?

Answer 1

If it's something you would like to have done, that's the time to do it.  No extra pain, anesthesia, or recovery time.

It can make a big difference in your appearance, but so will the mandibular advancement.  Your surgeon is the best one to tell you what the expected results are with and without the implant.

Good luck with your surgery!
