It has already been 11 months since my surgery! I had been feeling discomfort in daily life because of malocclusion and TMJ problems, so I eventually chose double jaw surgery, and after a recommendation from the director at my regular dental clinic, I had surgery with Dr. Shin Hee-jin at Iyu Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. Before the surgery, I was worried about the recovery period and pain, but Dr. Shin explained everything systematically and set up a step-by-step plan, which helped me relax. Now my recovery is progressing stably after surgery, and my orthodontic treatment is also almost at the final stage. However, after my primary doctor changed, I ended up doing about 1 to 2 more months of orthodontic treatment to align the teeth even more perfectly. If anything, I am more excited because the result should become even more satisfying. There is the hassle of wearing elastics, but it is not a major inconvenience, and opening my mouth and chewing have already recovered to nearly normal. Above all, the anxiety I had about my jaw dislocating has disappeared, and the jaw joint pain is almost gone, so I really feel that my quality of life has changed. Before surgery, I thought it would only change the shape of my face, but now that the functional changes came along too, I am truly satisfied. If you are considering double jaw surgery, I strongly recommend Dr. Shin Hee-jin to anyone who values both function and results!
