Guest guest Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 Hi, I'm having a hard time with my OS. Supposedly my insurance doesn't cover orthognathic surgery, but they do cover TMJ surgery. What's the difference? I gave them the procedure codes (Lefort 1 and Reconstruction of mandibular w/fixation) and was told it was covered, if it falls under TMJ. I have TMJ symptoms, but my surgeon insists that it's not TMJ. I can't get any straight answers. . . Does anyone know what the difference is? Also, I'm wanting a second opinion. Does anyone know of any great doctors in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area? Please?!? I already paid $5000 out of pocket for my braces because I thought my surgery would be covered. Thanks!
