I have a moderate to large overbite. What can I do for a more balanced profile? Chin implant, sliding gen? (Photo)

 The photographs from the side profile demonstrate an overly projecting nose and under projecting chin. Consider placement of chin implant to augment the chin forward, and a rhinoplasty to shave down the dorsal hump and decrease the projection of the nose. A chin implant itself can be placed under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure. A sliding genio-plasty is performed by an oral surgeon under general anesthesia in a hospital setting with an overnight stay at the hospital. The sliding genio- plasty is best performed when the teeth are significantly out of alignment.  A chin implant has no bearing on alignment of the teeth and is only done for cosmetic purposes. For many examples of rhinoplasty performed in combination with a chin implant, please see the link and the video below

Hey there,Deformities arising as a result of returned chin or a hypoplastic lower jaw is correctable in many ways. First and foremost is to have a thorough cephalometric analysis to assess the deformity as well as to check occlusion. If occlusion is fine then a sliding genioplasty or a chin implant or sometimes even fat fill are options. Please consult a certified plastic surgeon for further information
Hope this helps.

There are multiple options available to improve the appearance of your chin and profile. From chin implant, genioplasty (cutting chin bone), injectables, fat grafting, and liposuction.  All of these options alone or in combination can help improve the appearance of one's profile. Utilizing a 3D Vetra analysis in your consultation, will be helpful for you and your surgeon to determine your aesthetic desires and then discuss which surgical options are optimal for your to achieve those results.  Chin implants come in various sizes and shapes. Custom implants are also available. Your upper and lower jaw position (occlusion) is also very important when evaluating the best procedure for you. This will help determine if upper jaw surgery is needed as well.Seek consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon experienced maxillofacial surgery and facial plastic surgery. Good luck!
