I had camouflage orthodontics and had to decompensate the teeth to create an overjet for the bsso.

I had to remove two lower premolars and 2 lower wisdom teeth, then retract the lower teeth back to create the over jet.

It is what it is, will take 8-12 months.

shit camouflage sucks, is your surgeon who told you to do decompensation or you went to ortho to ask him ? also is it covered by insurence or not

Which country do you live in? Maybe you can still get covered if your TMJ is bad functioning, what is likely if you are recessed.

How much malocclusion do you need to get it covered under insurance? I have lateral crossbite, posterior open bite, and underbite so I'll be mad af if I have to pay out of pocket.

TMJ is covered where i live but it doesn't hurt me

Of course you can. But yout need to get your camouflage undone by an orthodontist

Mh? No. I will pay for everything myself. But my bite is fine. It will be part of the treatment so I can get bsso. I will set the lower teeth back + procline the upper teeth + incline the lower teeth for a bsso advancement as big as possible. Since my bite is close to perfect besides my mild class2 I couldn’t get a bsso otherwise
