I have short and receding chin, dentist said I need to remove 4 teeth and wear braces for about 2 years. But I am thinking about chin implant. I am seeking professional advice here: am I a good candidate for chin implant or should I listen to my dentist? Would chin implant improve my profile better than wearing braces? If I go for chin implant, what size would be ideal for me? (I consulted a doctor and he said I need big size, like 1 cm). Many thanks for sharing your opinion.
