Guest guest Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 I'm trying to decide whether or not to undergo orthognathic surgery to correct a class 2 malocclusion - I have an overjet of about 6 mm and a little asymmetry (lower midline is off by maybe 1.5 mm) We can get a dfairly good result with ortho alone, but to get the perfect class 1 occlusion it will require mandibular advancement - I assume (consultation on Wednesday) BSSO. What I'd like to ask those who have gone through it is how their experiences with respect to pain and swelling compare with (if they have had it) removal of wisdom teeth - in my case that was no big deal at all, though I had only partial impaction. I apologise if this is an oft-asked question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
