I'm not going to lie, my main goal is to achieve a nice looking jaw make @molestrip babies.
FTFY. For your convenience, I happen to be on the way too.
I've read that ortho sometimes can make it impossible (or very difficult) for someone to have jaw surgery in the future, especially if they extracted teeth... That scared me because I remember I had 2 extractions
I guess I'll just have to wait for my consults and see what's up. I had my treatment done so long ago that I barely remember what was done.
Not necessarily, it just has to be undone. At your age, probably not an issue. But you can't get those teeth back. You could get implants. Ultimately, your goal would be to re-center teeth in the alveolar bone. If you do have an underlying facial deformity, then there may also be thinning of cortical bone, adding insult to injury. Still, that stuff is very common in society these days, 25% of Americans lose all their teeth by 60.
The fact I had an anterior open bite before changes things? For the worse or for the better? ![Undecided :-\](https://jawsurgeryforums.com/Smileys/default/undecided.gif)
Depends on your perspective. It means you do indeed have a steep incline and, as a woman, you'd be at high risk for joint problems down the line. I don't know if surgeons will want to make that prediction, if they did many of us would never get to this point. At a minimum, you'd want to watch for sleep apnea as you age. By my observation, AOBs often pass as normal, attractive even, despite notable skeletal abnormalities. You'd get something close to the jaw you wanted at least.
I live in Dubai at the moment so unfortunately I have zero options locally, any surgeon I choose will be out of the country.
Syria isn't far and surgeons probably not too busy this time of year.
Surgery in general is nasty, avoid it like the plague. This one in particular comes with a lot of cost, risks, and compromises. The vast majority turn out well but you have so much to lose and even a good outcome for others might be terrible for you. Many of us don't mind losing feeling to lips, gums, palate, etc if it means keeping our teeth in the long run for example or not dieing of a heart attack in a decade because we can't sleep. Joint and airway problems are terrible, if your mandibular plane angle is over 40deg then I say go for it.
