I have ortho treatemznt , class 3 so yes it's free for me cuz i'm in France
Hope u get 25+, when it's 25+ it's "severe" si you get bigger CCW and avancement like 1 to 2 cm and 10+ CCW
Also beware that MSE fix ur sleep apnea then they retest you and deni you for bimax
Thing is it doesn’t always fix your sleep apnea. My maxilla and mandible are very recessed, laterally widening my palate and maxilla will increase my nasal volume yes but I don’t think it will eliminate sleep apnea if I actually have it. If It did solve it I’d go ahead with bimax and tell them it’s for aesthetic reasons and pay out of pocket. I think it’s worth it because MSE is a looksmax on its own right if you are a narrow palate cel like me. It will also allow me to have better tongue posture as well as reduce my facial aging nasolabial folds
Do you know what advancement they give you for less than severe?
Depends on your bite,
No, x-ray and even CTSCAN means nothing
Life fuel, is it hard to get them to do CCW?
Very little, it's not becayse u not snore that u don't have sleep apnea , also i don't feel fatigue 24-24 7/7 , but still my sleep apnea is 30 IAH
it makes lower third shorted slightly, but i have no upper teeth show so my maxilla will be downgraft anteriorly also
CCW is counter clockwise rotation
Thx
Where i live , they are not formed to do CCW
Bimax refers to a surgery of the upper jaw(maxilla) and the lower jaw (mandible). The lower jaw is usually a BSSO which is a specific cut. The upper jaw is usually a Lefort 1 which is also specific cut. Ontop the lefort1 cut there are several different way to move the cut bone. A ccw refers to a Rotation of the maxilla bone.
yeah sleeping like shit is also pretty normal for me tbh but the oximeter says it's ok. like I wake and turn a lot and my pulse is all over the place but my saturation is ok. like did they tell you how low it drops? my mom has cpap it drops to 88% for her for like an hour every night the doctor said it's borderline but she can still get it and she's sleeping better since but cpap is a pain in the ass obviously
when u smile u cant see your upper teeth?
I can but not a lot , so my maxilla need to be downgrafted anteriorly for aesthetic smile, and even more posteriorly to achieve CCWwhen u smile u cant see your upper teeth?
I don't do the oximeter test
jfl they skimped on the oximeter? that's the cheapest part of the test
This is my result, i don't know how to read it to see how low
In France all free, even CPAP is free, i refused it , i told the guy i'm getting bimax i don't need CPAP loljfl they skimped on the oximeter? that's the cheapest part of the test
it's résumé oximétrie on the bottom left. holy fuk 4.4min under 85% gl boyo
hopefully my oximeter is accurate tbh but I guess it should be coz I tested my mom and had the same result as the clinic
holy i thought i couldt have sleep apnea since my surgeon said my air waves are pretty good
Just do sleep test if it's free,
Oximetrie is included in the test , it's mesures but the test includ other thingit's résumé oximétrie on the bottom left. holy fuk 4.4min under 85% gl boyo
maybe that surgeon can't do ccw rotation
Every surgeon know how to do CCW
i will do thanks for info
Yes, bimax is only for aesthetic if u don't have sleep apnea or recessed lower jaw (most of time recession come with sleep apnea , but then the degree of severity depend on recession
but when you have good airwaves+sleep apnea than a bimax still help with sleep apnea?
if u don't have sleep apnea then yes bimax will make airway bigger but if you don't have sleep apnea i will not get 1cm or more so no big change
in theory
I take steroid, maybe it helped
The more you weight the more chances you get it, get some serious neck training so you increase your neck volume and get stuffed before sleep and see how it goes (for those who are trying it).
Cause my bimax is not for sleep apnea It's for my bite + esthetic
makes sense man. good luck with your appointment hope he agrees to do the CCW and everything works out
