Chin Implant Vs Mandibular Advancement

Without an exam your question cannot be answered.  You will need to see an Oral/Maxillofacial surgeon to see if othognathic surgery, genioplasty or using an implant is best for your specific case. It should be noted that patients with severely weak jaws or abnormally functioning jaws may be better treated with other facial surgery (orthognathic surgery), although a chin augmentation may be an option at a later time. These patients should seek the advice of a plastic surgeon to determine which course is right for them. Here is some information to help you make this decision: Candidates for Chin Augmentation - Patients whose chin profiles are weak but have normally functioning jaws are candidates for Chin Augmentation. Many of these candidates have used injectable fillers in the past to strengthen the protrusion of their chins, but are looking for a permanent solution. If you are one of these patients, then you are a likely candidate for chin augmentation

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.

Hi there. A “strong” and well-defined jaw and chin have traditionally been attractive physical traits. As such, some patients present with concerns about a weak or recessed chin.A more aesthetic chin may be achieved by placement of a chin implant. Interestingly, a balanced chin improves overall facial appearance and may actually influence nasal projection.For example, a weak chin may increase the severity of an overprojected nose.Good overall medical health, as well as realistic expectations, are necessary. It is also key to understand all aspects of the surgery and aftercare. A pleasing, balanced profile can be achieved by inserting an implant to augment a weak chin, resulting in improved facial harmony.Hope this is helpful. Best wishes.

Based on your photo, it seems that you have a small lower jaw with an overbite, a chin implant will increase the projection of the chin, but will deepen the fold between your lip and chin (mentolabial fold). You will benefit from mandibular advancement surgery(corrective jaw surgery) and genioplasty (chin bone surgery).

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.
