How Long After Braces Can I Get Rhinoplasty?

June 11, 2009
Asked By:latigo in San Diego, CA

Is there any conflict with getting braces on my teeth shortly before Rhinoplasty? I know with braces sometimes you take Tylenol the day you get them on, but I can go without that. Then you need to follow up with your dentist every 3-4 weeks with visits. Can I get Rhinoplasty one week after getting the braces put on?
