25/26 yr old girl - England - Double Jaw Surgery (Overbite) and Genioplasty. Bradford, Yorkshire

One year on...

WORTH IT
Having double jaw surgery was honestly the best decision I could have ever made. One year on I can't stop smiling, can eat properly and I am no longer self conscious.

I had my top two teeth removed. Upper jaw moved 4mm up, lower jaw moved and genioplasty on 7/716 with Mr Chambers. Mr Littlewood is my orthodontic consultant who prepared my teeth for surgery and will continue treatment after surgery. The orthodontics and maxillofacial team at Bradford St Luke's have really been so incredible! I can not write in words how amazing and caring they have been. You can tell how close knit their team are, I really do completely trust them and feel I could not be in better hands. During my emotional worries of not knowing whether to go through surgery, Mr Littlewood even returned a call to me and spoke to me on the phone!

OMG, I had replied to you because I went through the same thing when I was 17, I'm now 53, and it was the best decision I made as well. Both my daughters suffered from the same problem, but were fortunate to be able to use a pallet expander. Both have beautiful teeth too. To see how your teeth looked then to now is just a Cinderella moment. I've looked back at photos of myself when my teeth were just a mess and I have to admit I have a fabulous smile too. You look beautiful!!! All the best to you across the pond :-)
Thank you so much that’s a very sweet message! I am so glad your daughters were able to correct their bite without surgery :) all the best sent back to you over the pond too! X
Great pictures
You must be very happy you went through with all the treatment
Thank you yes best decision I’ve ever made (though a tough one at the time!)
I've never gone through this but read your story & went through your photos. I'm sure the process was difficult but WOW!! You look amazing!! Your jaw line & teeth are beautiful & so are you!! Be blessed & enjoy your refreshed new look!! You will be an encouragement to others.
Thank you so much. It was a tough process and few years but I am so glad I went through wth it. It really was worth every second of it!
Omg, your result is amazing, you look so beautiful. I am glad you did it. Thank you for posting your process. I feel assured when reading your story as I am having the same problem and thinking about going though the same process. Thank you for sharing and enjoy your amazing beautiful new look
Thank you so much. I really do recommend going through with it, i went through stages of being unsure whether to do it or not but I am so glad I did. Best of luck for your future and please message me if you have any worries or concerns xx
Do you have any negative side effects AT ALL? Anything?
Hi there, the only ever so slight negative side effect is the numbness in the left hand corner of my lips which I can’t feel and sometimes dribble! (Very v rarely and no one has ever noticed just me).

OMG, you look fabulous!! I saw your story a long time ago and kept up with your updates having been through the same surgery when I was 18, I'm 53 now. I have a 16 year old nephew who will have the same surgery summer of 2018. This summer he is getting his wisdom teeth pulled and will get braces on in a year. I told him about you and will have to show him your outcome. Go out and celebrate.
you look beautiful, i hope things continue to go well, always remember to wear your retainer!
THank you so much - I wear my retainer religiously every night!
You look amazing! Are you happy with the result?
Thank you lovely! So happy - best decision I've ever made :)
Looks great. I'd love to know if you felt like ay of your facial features changed with your surgery. I've heard that sometimes things like your nose or cheekbones could slightly change. Same with smile. Did you experience this?
Hi there thank you. My nose slightly changed but everything else the same!
Thank you so much. That means a lot. I wish your nephew the best of luck, it has honestly been the best decision I have ever made having it done. I am so much more smiley and confident now. I can also bite a sandwich like a normal person!

Wow what a journey you have been on, almost over now!. Im one month post lower jaw advancement and genioplasty, I had upper expansion (SAME/SARPE) 12 months ago. Still swollen and numb but it's always great to see other people's progress.
What an amazing journey! You look beautiful! Did you take your braces off?

So antsy to see your after photos! Did you end up getting your braces off as planned?

You look great
Thanks for the pictures and description on the whole thing! I'm getting bottom jaw surgery in the spring and braces off in the fall 2017, makes me feel a little more confident, I keep getting people telling me it's not worth it and such, you look beautiful! Cant wait to see a picture with no braces! :)
