No more braces!
I got my braces off today! I am three months two weeks out. I am so amazed by the results. I got a wire glued to the back of my bottom teeth that will be there forever. I am just in awe of the results.

Since I was 7, the orthodontist had always told me...
Since I was 7, the orthodontist had always told me I would need a jaw surgery to correct my bite. My parents asked him to do whatever he could so I could avoid this- that is what he did. I was in a retainer, a palet expander, head gear, and braces. Yes, my teeth were straight, though my teeth did not touch in the front or on the left side. I only chewed on my back right molar, and swallowed lots of food whole. I never saw a problem with this as it was all I ever knew. Physically my face looked fine and "normal," to the average person.
It was not until I was 23 that I started to really notice the problem. I was having stomach problems (probably from swallowing my food whole), and the right side of my face was starting to look larger, and more muscular then the left. I went to a different orthodontist thinking he would be able to throw me back into braces and fix my problem. The second I sat in the chair, he told me I needed surgery.
I decided I would do some research and head to an oral surgeon just to hear what he would have to say. This is when I found myself in Dr. Jamali's office. I spent over 2 hours there going over xrays and drawings Dr. Jamali was able to sketch out of my face. He was able to sketch what would be done if I had the jaw surgery performed. We discussed benefits of surgery and how my quality of life would improve.
I decided to go ahead with the procedure. Dr. Jamali helped prove that my case was functional, and not cosmetic. As a result, insurance covered my procedure. The extra that was not covered Dr. Jamali waived (thank goodness!!!!).
Surgery was definitely tough, and recovery has been a long road. I am almost two months out, and still have facial swelling. I am still blending my food to eat, and have not yet been given the okay to chew (but it's not bad, food processors will be your best friend!) Every day gets better and better. I am back to living my life the way I had prior to the surgery- I am just careful that I do not get hit in the face with anything!
Overall, Dr. Jamali is the best surgeon you can go to for this procedure. He is there every step of the way, and is just a quick phone call away! I HIGHLY recommend him, as he does the best work I have seen.

Dr. Jamali has been nothing but wonderful thus far. He is a kind perfectionist who does not beat around the bush- he tells it like it is. He is willing to spend AMPLE time discussing procedures to ensure you feel comfortable.
