Can a D.D.S do plastic surgery? (genioplasty)

[Guest guest]

Thanks everyone for their comments/suggestions so far. You've

helped me more than you know (Smooches, viewed your pics; You look

great!) As I'm sure everyone on here knows, it's a difficult period

to go through when you first learn and come to terms with what

a " process " this is. It seems as though this is one of the rare

surgeries where the anticipatory and preparation phase is an

extremely long road! It is helpful to hear (read) words of

encouragement, understanding, and support. Just another general

question: The person performing my surgery is a D.D.S, he has also

suggested a genioplasty to balance my face. Isn't that cosmetic

surgery? I guess I wasn't aware that they were trained in that. Is

this something they learn as an oral or maxilliofacial surgeon? Has

anyone else had a D.D.S perform their surgery? Just curious..

thanks all!!
