The cost for Class III underbite surgery, specifically correcting only the lower jaw, can vary widely, but typically ranges from INR 50,000 to INR 2,00,000 or more in India. Recovery time after the surgery is generally 6-12 weeks, with initial healing taking about 6 weeks and full healing potentially taking up to 12 weeks.

View allWhat's the most effective way to treat a mucocele and prevent it from coming back would laser surgery work better than a scalpel or are there other options I should consider
For oral mucoceles, both laser surgery and surgical excision (with a scalpel) can be effective. Laser surgery, like CO2 laser, may offer advantages like minimal scarring, faster healing, and less discomfort, particularly for pediatric patients. However, surgical excision, especially if it includes removal of the surrounding salivary gland and duct, can be very effective in preventing recurrence. The best approach depends on the specific case, the patient's preferences, and the dentist's expertise.

My tooth is totally broken and might need to be pulled will I have to get gum surgery for that? What's usually involved in the extraction process? I'm a little worried about how complicated it might be.

I've had braces before to fix my front teeth sticking out, but I'm still not happy with how they look. Would upper jaw surgery be an option for me? I'm a bit worried about whether it's necessary or what the process would be like.
Jaw surgery may be a corrective option if you have a jaw condition that braces alone can't fix. Usually, you also have braces on your teeth before surgery and while you recover after surgery until healing and alignment are complete
