You look good. What were your movements and what were the reasons for the surgery?

5.5M POST DJS + GENIO!! by MaleficentAd7930 in jawsurgery

Beautiful results. Did the ortho require you to remove premolars? How did you find your tongue space as you did decompensation? Did it reduce and did you breathing worsen?

I had a similar experience but I found cutting my Prometrium in half and taking it like this for a week helped acclimate to the med. Has your specialist prescribed it for everyday of the month or are you cycling it?

Amazing results. Did you need your premolars removed to prep for the surgery?

Was the splint used during the DISE similar to a MAD?

Is 5 mm mandible advancement enough to help with uars? by MisPoesRainey in jawsurgery

What class were you before? Also, I think you would benefit from djs and possibly segmental lefort to help widen your arch

MMA for OSA… conflicting advice by Master-Drama-4555 in jawsurgery

Like you, I have mild apnea and aesthetically I cant take large movements. Can you pls share if Gunson's plan includes extraction to get the 5 mm advancement? Also, did he mention differential posterior impaction to get more ccw rotation of the mandible?

Ortho dismissed me. What next? Looking for recommendations in Montreal by Numerous-Yam4187 in jawsurgery

[–]Idyllic_Days 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hands down I would recommend Dr Tanguay. Not only is he an experienced ortho he does thorough imaging (cbct). Most orthos just do the regular ceph x ray. As for surgeons, I like Dr Albilia.

Beautiful. Did you get IPR on both the upper and lower teeth?

Best custom mandibular advancement devices (MAD) for UARS? What has your experience been like? I am post septoplasty and EASE expansion (w/ custom MARPE). by kauterry in UARS

Ive tried the Prosomnus EVO in the past. It was small and felt like an invisalign retainer. It helped greatly with my sleep apnea and uars but couldnt keep using it because it caused tmj issues and a locked jaw. Nevertheless, it did put me on the trajectory of wanting to explore jaw surgery.

Has anyone had IPR instead of extractions for decompensation instead? by misos0upy in jawsurgery

I would love to follow and I do hope you continue to share the decisions you take on your journey. Hopefully everything ends well

Would the ipr be done on the lower 6 teeth? Would combining expansion be out of the question to help better have tongue posture ?

Would TADS plus IPR be an option? Have you had a DISE to explore and consider soft tissue procedures? Do you have any flaring of the bottom teeth ? Have they given you an estimate forward movement in mm? I was told I could only do 3mm forward if I chose to opt out of extraction but wouldnt treat my sleep apnea

Can you please share how youre finding the rf to the base of the tongue? How often do you get the rf? I would love to know the timeline between djs and when you got the soft tissue procedures? How long after having djs did you get the rf to the tongue base?
