Guest guest Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 Hey there, I had a maxillary advance on feb 2, 2005, and a genioplasty for a class 3 underbite that made it hard to eat and talk, but i am worried that the OS kinda got it wrong. I feel like my maxilla is now too long in the front and that my OS should have impacted it to shorten it a bit. I went from a bad underbite to an overbite. He says that braces will bring the upper jaw back a bit, but i don't know if that's going to be enough. Also the jaws really don't line up like the models showed before surgery and i am having to wear these evil strong rubber bands on my braces that are pulling so hard on my teeth, and because they don't line up well there is this awful teeth grating going on all the time. Has anyone else had problems like these? I am really discouraged right now. I am having trouble eating and cry at least once a day. I would really appreciate any advice or experience or encouragement that anyone has to offer. I am going through this pretty much alone and i just don't know what to do Thanks, Regretting surgery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
