Guest guest Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 Have any of you received multiple opinions on how your bite should be corrected? If so, how did you decide which doctor to go with? Dr. Arnett (Santa Barbara) said I should have my teeth moved forward, my upper jaw widened, and my lower jaw moved back. Dr. Eckstein (San Diego) said I should just have my upper jaw widened and moved forward. I also need a genioplasty (my chin is very long) and there is disagreement about how much to remove. It's so confusing! Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 Hi , I read your message. I actually had surgery with Dr. Arnett December 2nd. He is really the best. I have also had 2 close friends have jaw surgery with him too (yes i know it's weird that 2 friends of mine had the same problem. Anyway, he has had such experience and not only knows how to fix the problem but he knows what is needed for a good aesthetic result. I highly suggest choosing him. He is the best.
