I have a few questions about DJS.
First, the upper jaw. LF1 could be beneficial, do you think that if I don’t have an underbite it will give good results? My bite is normal I would just get it for more facial depth if. Alternatively, maybe the kind of LF2 that Giant offers were
it’s all intraoral and they don’t move the nose bit, just the infraorbital rim and LF1 parts. I must confess that I don’t fully understand this, but if it’s a viable option then I’ll look into it more.
Next, the lower jaw. What I really need is for my ramus to be lengthened, but that is typically done by distraction and it takes a while. It most likely would not be done in the same procedure. I’m not sure whether or not I should get this. Alternatively, would some kind of CCW make the ramus appear longer?
I am just trying to learn more about these procedures, I am not seriously considering them yet, just figuring out my options. I am starting to save up for surgery when I am 19 or 20.
