Reopening spaces and preparing for lower jaw advancement

#1 Post by abro884 »

Hi guys

So I finally got the clear to do it; ortho is going to open the spaces and recreate my overjet so I can do surgery. Whoopdeedee.

All I can say is they totally didn't want to do it, but it's my body, my choice at the end of the day.
I shared that I wouldn't be compliant to go through with continuing retraction, so it doesn't really make sense to go down that route if I'm against it, arguably.

Thoughts? Personal experiences? All welcome and wanted. It's been frustrating convincing them that I know my mind.
