Thanks for the answers. I will adress the issues now.
2: CW-r which will rotate the chin point (Pog) down and back and thereby reduce the chin prominence and without a separate surgery to the chin to reduce prominence.
But it seems like CW-r will increase the effect of "merging" of the mandible and neck that I would like to avoid. Is my intuition here correct?
The other part of the matter is that when I look at other angles of the face, such as SNA and SNB, the SNA (associated with maxilla orientation) is a little above the norm and SNB (associated with mandible orientation) is also a little above the norm. SNA is more above the norm than is SNB. So now, I'm not that convinced the maxilla is recessive and I'm now questioning if the mandible is recessive. I disclose I didn't CROSS REFERENCE your SNA and SNB angles with your self assessments of recession to BOTH JAWS."
As I (and all my orthodontists/dentists) said I do have micrognathia. In the past few weeks I learned (from my ortho and denstist) that I have maxilla recession too. So it's not merely my own self assesment, but of course it still could be wrong.
Although your initial entry was 'easy to follow' for GJ, it wasn't for me. For example, you were preparing for DOUBLE JAW surgery but with ONLY option of the Lefort 1 (single upper jaw surgery). Also, you wanted to know if you 'should try to convince' your surgeon to do something. To me, that type of question conveys you want to be a 'back seat driver' telling your surgeon what he/she needs to do. But don't know the directions yourself. Although you're not expected to know HOW to DIRECT your surgeon, another 'back seat' driver from here (even if it's me) can't be expected to proxy to direct him/her for you to convince of those directions.
You are right, I might have a wrong attitude towards the whole thing. The thing I'm worried about is that my surgeon will not take aesthetics into consideration, leaving me with a functional, but not aesthetically satisfying result. It is an insurance covered operation after all.
As I said I'm still new to the topic, so my post might not be perfect. I'm sorry if it's 'hard to follow', maybe you could give me some hints where I could write something more clearly (I'm being honest and not trying to be argumentative here; it's in my best interest to make my post 'easy to follow' and maybe I lack some knowlege in the topic of jaw surgery etc.) ?
The lower jaw operation will probably be BSSO, but I will know for sure only after my first appointment with the surgeon.
What would be easier for me to follow would be a displacement PLAN from your surgeon.
Unfortunatelly I don't have that yet. I will probably make another post in the future with that kind of info though.
I will post some more photos showing the issues I have with my face more clearly.
