    i got my date in october too but they said there was bigger surgery's to do before mine, which i can understand.

    Iv researched the operation loads and i know their no real complications, but dosent stop me from being nervous about goin under, the pain after it and im afraid incase the jaw moves out of place aswell.

    i was 18 when they first offered me the surgery but i was too busy having fun i didnt bother but then we booked r wedding in 2009 and that made me get it done, im 25 now and think i will appreciate wot this op will do for me in confidence as im so aware of how much my bottom jaw sticks out.

    I used to want an implant because I thought that would bring balance to my face but now I decided to get the jaw surgery instead. And the surgery is less expensive where I live at 2 500$ since insurance cover most of it. The implant would be 4 000$ and is not even permanent, I would have needed ajustments.

    And my bite is okay, I don't need the surgery absolutely. It would really be for esthetic reasons...
