surgeons who do bimax AND implants?
« on: February 01, 2017, 09:38:49 AM »
Any takers?

I have been told this 3 prong approach of bimax, genio and jaw angle implants is possible all in the same operation. Trying to find who does this is turning out not so possible!

Bimaxillary advancement surgery can be obviously combined with a sliding genioplasty procedure however one can not say the same about bimaxillary advancement combined with jaw angle or even any other type of implants since there's a good chance of infection if it's done immediately after lower jaw advancement.

haven't heard of implants at same time as bimax.

stephen warren and deschamps braly do both kinds of procedures.
