Jaw implant vs double jaw surgery - what would be the best choice for me? (photos)

Question

I’ve only done 1 consultation with a surgeon who said that a jaw implant is applicable for my situation. The internet seems to indicate otherwise, and have told me that DJS is the only solution to my jaw disharmony. I have a perfect bite and no functional issues besides mouth breathing at night. DJS seems extremely aggressive and expensive. I’ve been considering a rhinoplasty in addition to the jaw implant. Would this be advisable? I might avoid anything if DJS is the only solution. Thanks.

For sure jaw surgery. The benefits that you get from it is outstanding. Your face would not look good with implants. Jaw surgery is covered by medical insurances in most instances. Your bite should not be perfect. It was either nature or orthodontist that masked your class II malocclusion. You still have class II skeleton.
