What's being done

I will be having two different surgeries. The first surgery will be to fix my upper jaws narrowness. I will be having a palette expander placed on my top jaw by my orthodontist and then my surgeon will be making 3 incisions in the upper jaw bone. I will then have to turn a key to expand it. I still do not know how many mm it is being widened so I am unsure how long I will be turning the key for.

My second jaw surgery will be close to the summer or fall. I will be getting my lower jaw moved forward. Again, not to sure how many mm it is being moved, but the top jaw has to be set first before I can get a definite answer as to how far its moving.

I will also have pictures soon....
