Is it accurate that you're missing some teeth and that your wisdom teeth were never pulled? You'd likely want to have them pulled before surgery.

I see a small airway (hard to say, but it looks it on the scan) and a steep mandibular angle, which both would be corrected by doing a counter-clockwise rotation. From what you provided, it looks like you're a good candidate for the surgery.

thank you for your help.next week iwill have 3d ct scan in bangkok .i will let you know how i get on.

I had a 3d ct scan today and consultation with max surgeon in bangkok- he mentioned narrowing of the airway at the base of the soft palate-he recommended bi max but never mentioned removing the chin implant and doing a genioplasty? The cost was to expensive for me{about the same price of spain- he also said he could take the wisdom teeth out on day of surgery. Is it better to get wisdoms out months before surgery.? so i am looking at india at dr sunil or dr vikram shetty or korea.
