Aesthetic effects of jaw widening

[Acromegaly_Chad]

Anybody knows if transversal mandibular distraction osteogenesis has notable aesthetic effects on the jaw ? I'd get it for about the distance of 1 to 1.5 canines so around 6-9mm. I imagine the chin get proportionally wider ?

I assume it depends on how the gonion and mandible react. If it expands in a parallel shape, then the entire mandible would expand and it would be a Chad surgery. If it just expands in a pyramid shape, then the chin would get wider with the mandible being more or less the same, which would still be good to fix a narrow chin which more narrow mandiblecels have anyways. We'd need before and after xrays to see and obviously an individual's bone structure matters as well.

The effects are those of a pyramid shape although the jaw angles get pushed out a tad bit as well.
My surgeon said he can either offer me this combined with SARPE and orthodontics (which would expand my palate by around 7mm in total which would be a huge looksmax for my narrow smile)
or he could extract 1 premolar...

So I guess I'll go with that. My chin is hyper narrow anyways.

Could even read the full article because my uni has access lol. The guy ascended HARD.
Only problem is that overall treatment took 22 months. I'm certainly not gonna wait for so long.

is there any difference optically when u widen the jaw with a bsso/chinwing and this method?

osteogenesis seems overall like a shitty approach to do anything tbh.

Depends.
A narrow smile/palate is one heck of a disgusting trait so I'm probably still gonna do it to fix my subhumanity.

And that’s why I always read the TOS now when starting treatments with docs imagine you don’t Cross out the „is allowed to publish pictures ONLY for educational purposes“. You expect it to only be for selected doctors. And then a wholefckin university has acces to your subhuman face which you looksmaxxed all in silence

Post the pic here.

Not worth. 22 months then need to wait for all the bone to ossify before getting bimax in case there's any relapse.

The retards did mandible and SARPE not at the same time plus his situation was nuch worse than mine PLUS the overall time includes after treatment as well. So I hope in my case 9 months will be sufficient, which they should.

I think the surgery is weird man. Like. Doesn’t that lead to insane amounts of pressure from the bone ? Inwards pressure from the gonions
