Double-Jaw Surgery Reviews

A non-extraction orthodontic treatment from 8 years ago gummy smile....

8 years ago, at a neighborhood dental clinic, I had non-extraction orthodontic treatment with an orthodontic specialist. When I was in college, I begged my mom to let me do it, and back then I didn't think much about it, so when I was told not to extract teeth because it could make me look sunken-cheeked, I followed the doctor's advice. The result was satisfying, but my mouth didn't come in completely. Of course, because it was non-extraction.. But I have a gummy smile when I smile... And my front teeth are very large, so my philtrum also looks long.. When I was young, I didn't know anything and just followed what they said there, but now there are a few things I regret. First of all, the problem started with not looking into things properly and doing it at a neighborhood dental clinic. First, because of that, I couldn't get jaw correction... I also had a bit of asymmetry, so my left jaw was more developed and I had a square jaw. But it seems they didn't correct the temporomandibular joint and I still have asymmetry Second, the fact that proper measures weren't taken for the gums showing when I smile broadly (of course, I couldn't even tell the doctor) Actually, it may have been a case that needed double jaw surgery... Back then I couldn't even imagine that and only thought about myself and braces I recently looked into it a bit, and if the front teeth are small, they also do it with laser treatment.. but that didn't seem to be my case Third, I was only afraid of extraction and couldn't properly tell the doctor my opinion that I wanted my mouth to come in more... -> Actually I also said that above, but I have a lot to say about this. I did trust the doctor, but honestly he was a bit sensitive;;; kind of person... Even to the nurses he had a very cold way of speaking... maybe it was just his tone, but he would also get irritated easily at times... I'm a bit uncomfortable with people like that I was really young back then, so I couldn't say what I wanted properly at all Sigh Everyone here, please!! research well, and if you have TMJ problems or asymmetry, correct them together too.. so you can finish it all at once!!!
