Facial Asymmetry

Thanks for the great photos, you seem to have a good idea of the areas of asymmetry. The question of course is what can be done. There are some options. While I would like to see a CT/radiographs of the bony structures of your face, typical the treatment would be either facial implants or jaw surgery or a combination of the two. For example, your upper and lower jaws can be leveled with orthognathic surgery (cutting the upper and lower jaw to reposition them…
What do I need surgically to help my face become good looking and balanced?

Joestallon,
From your initial photos, it does appear jaw surgery would help improve your facial proportions. While a more in-depth evaluation would be needed to see what needs to be addressed, I would imagine an upper and lower jaw surgery with a genioplasty would be required. Typically, it involves bringing the upper jaw slightly up and forward which will allow your lower jaw to move up and forward as well. This will help give you a stronger chin (along with a…

Robert96,
Two things I notice from your pictures is and increased maxillary incisor tooth display with minimal smile as well a retruded/set back chin. This typically happens when you have excess maxillary (upper) jaw growth that tends to make the midface appear long and the lower jaw appear deficient. You didn’t mention it but this facial growth is also frequent in people with sleep apnea as well. This often can be treated with orthognathic surgery moving the upper jaw…

Would orthognathic surgery be favorable?
Your orthodontist maybe correct

DaveDude,
TMJ pain can have many causes, sometimes in the actual jaw joint, sometimes related to the muscles that help your jaw function. Looking at your profile, your upper and lower jaw appear deficient and can often contribute to sleep apnea. The tongue is attached to the most forward/inside part of your lower jaw and when the lower jaw and chin are moved forward it can move the tongue forward preventing it from collapsing your airway when you sleep. There can…

IsaNeu,
That’s great you’re replacing missing teeth and want to make sure you time it correctly with implant placement and crown placement. I would recommend you wait until your orthodontics is completed or at least very close to completion before having the implants placed. The orthodontist will likely appreciate all the space you can provide in your jaw to align the teeth. If you place the implants too early and too close to the natural teeth that need to be moved/aligned…

Can you give me advice which treatment will be best for my case or I need genioplasty?
Genioplasty or Orthognathic surgery

Arianica,
You ask a great question. Many patients ask me what to do about a facial asymmetry and I usually offer several options. If you have a comfortable bite, like the way your teeth look when you smile and only want a chin that lines up appropriately then a genioplasty or chin implant should work out nicely.
However, if you want an ideal bite and smile and correct not only the chin asymmetry but the upper jaw cant (your upper jaw is canted downward on the left side to match…
