childhood condolyle fracture problems

[Guest guest]

Does anyone have assymetry problems due to a fractured condoyle as a

child?.

Is it possible to have orthognathic surgery when the jaw has already

been broken and suffered damage?

Is it safe to rebreak your jaw and if not can they use artificial jaw

joints if there are any problems?

Hi Recpai,

I haven't had this, but it sounds like a good question for your OMS.

Have you been to a consult yet? It is an interesting question. I

hope you find someone here who has been through this already and can

give you some first hand experience, but please let us know what you

find out too. Good luck with this,

Hugs,

Fran
