Collapsed jaw due to teeth extraction. What can I do to help?

December 30, 2019
Asked By:Rational9669 in New York, NY

I’m 34(F) and have had several teeth pulled and have not gotten implants yet. It’s been over a year and a half and I can see that my jawline has changed significantly. I feel like it’s beginning to collapse, my jawline looks shorter and less defined. Eventually I will get teeth implants and bone grafts, but are there any treatments or surgery that can correct what has happened? Would an appliance like the Vivos or ALF help reverse this?
