Thanks for your responses. I'm ready for surgery, now it is just a matter of my family and I deciding we want to go through with the surgery.
The oral surgeon will take into consideration the aesthetics? Really? I had no idea. At the consult, he simply asked me to move my lower jaw forward until his little ruler measured what my orthodontist had recommended. And every time I move my jaw forward I look horrible.
I look like I have an under bite which I won't and as if my lower lip is twice as large as my upper lip. Is there any way to move both jaws so that they don't make me look deformed? Kaiser will pay for everything so luckily price is no problem (except for the $15 for the consult
).
