Hi nbernat

Jaw and plastic surgery are very precise sciences and I recommend you speak to your surgeons about your concerns.

The few clients I know who've had plastic surgery connected to their jaw surgeries, do so after the jaw surgery. The reason they've chosen this, is that it's not till after the jaw surgery, in fact many months later, after the swelling has gone, that the extent of what you require can be seen. Also check if the work required for your chin can be done at the time of your jaw surgery. Many surgeon's 'fix' the jaw line using prosthesis at the same time as 'fixing' the jaw(s)

With regards to your teeth not matching, that's to be expected, as your jaw is not currently working in that position. Mostly your teeth will be aligned suitable for surgery, then you'll have surgery. Following that a few months of tweaking is usually necessary, before your teeth go naked. This is definitely a question for your orthodontist and surgeon, as it's good to show your interest.

All the best with your surgery plans!
