Chin implant versus mandibular advancement

An implant would help with your jaw projection, though it would do nothing to help with any tooth alignment problems. As long as you understand the limitations of implant surgery you could procede with this if you don't want to go through more extensive surgery.

Chin implant vs mandibular advancement

An implant placement would assist you with an improved profile. However, to determine what the best procedure is for you requires an exam that includes the evaluation of your dentition and an evaluation of your mandibular anatomy in correlation with your maxillary anatomy. Once the pathology is defined your surgeon can better determine if an implant or a mindibnular advancment procedure is best suited for you.
