One of the most common questions asked by many patients who intend to undergo orthodontic treatment and rhinoplasty is whether they should undergo orthodontic treatment or rhinoplasty first??
Patients should keep in mind that since orthodontics can affect the shape and position of the lips by moving the teeth, it is best to finish the orthodontic treatment first, so that after the position of the lips and jaw is stabilized, the patient undergoes plastic surgery.
In rhinoplasty, one of the most important things the surgeon considers for the final shape of your nose is its relationship to the lips (keep in mind that the shape of the lips will change after orthodontic treatment). It is also possible that during orthodontic treatment, pressure is applied to the nose by the orthodontist, so it is recommended to perform rhinoplasty after orthodontics. Finally, it is recommended to consult an orthodontist before performing rhinoplasty.
