I Have Tmj Will Tthat Prevent Me from a Nose Job?

April 13, 2013
Asked By:Lilly123456 in Cleveland, Ohio

I've seen a oral surgeon before and he felt that the benefit I would get from jaw surgery would be minimum compared to the recovery period and the price for this surgery. I have no desire to get jaw surgery and as long as I'm careful with my jaw I normally don't have any issues. Do you think having tmj might cause an issue for me to get rhinoplasty?
