Can I benefit from custom jaw angle implants? (post bimax)
« on: January 11, 2022, 07:43:40 PM »
I recently had bimaxillary advancement with CCW. While I am pleased with the result, I still have short rami and lack of prominence of my gonions.

Can these shortcomings be addressed with custom jaw angle implants?

The other option I am considering is chin wing. But I am not sure if I am a viable candidate giving my baby ramus and mandibular body.

Looks like a better candidate for the jaw implants.
