View allI'm 15 and my lower jaw is overgrown on one side. It doesn't affect chewing or cause sleep apnea but I'm really self-conscious about how it looks. I'm pretty small for my age at 4'10 and haven't grown in about a year. Since braces aren't an option, should I wait until I'm 18 for corrective surgery or is it okay to do it now?
ent opinion is advised o the patient.

I'm trying to figure out whether I should go to a dentist or a maxillofacial surgeon for wisdom teeth extraction which one would be better for the procedure? Also, how long does the whole surgery usually take to recover from? I'm a bit nervous about the process and recovery time.
For wisdom teeth extraction, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon is generally the better choice, especially for complex cases. Recovery time typically ranges from a few days to two weeks

I have a short face and want to increase my midface length how much can double jaw surgery or Lefort surgery actually help with that? Are there limits to how much they can lengthen it, and what factors affect the results?
Double jaw or LeFort surgery can lengthen the midface slightly (4–6 mm typically), but results depend on bone anatomy, soft tissue tension, and surgeon expertise.
