Double Jaw Surgery. New York, NY

I had a severe open bite all my life and dislocated my jaw 5 years ago. For the past two years I was getting headaches almost every day, couldn't sleep on my left side anymore, eating and talking was getting harder and harder, everytime my jaw came out I had to put it back in place. Since my insurance didn't cover the braces or surgery I couldn't do anything about it. Life was getting very uncomfortable and I felt insecure everytime I talked. On August 2014, 5 years after dislocating my jaw I finally went to an orthodentist and began my journey of correcting my jaw. I had braces for a little over a year. On October 27th 2015 I had my double jaw surgery done. Like my husband says "my surgeon broke my upper jaw and re-did it" and he shifted my lower jaw to the right.

I feel much better one week after my surgery, sleeping through the night and I have more energy to play with my kid. Went for a check up and my surgeon says everything looks great and healing properly. The plate inside my mouth needs to saty on for 6 weeks and I must wear bands at all time in a U shape to keep my jaw together so talking is kind of hard. My lower lip and chin are completely numb. I can't wait to see my new bite and my new smile!

Love my new face and new life!
Thanks to my orthodontist Dr Tanya Vaysman and my surgeon Dr David Berhman for this amazing transformation
