Hello Angela, I am looking into getting the same treatment that you are receiving/have received from Dr. Hang, and have even flown over for a consult with him. I am still quite a bit hesitant about following through with it (treatment), though. Are you still happy with what he has done? Also, the quote I was given to have the work done was $15,000. If you don't mind my asking, were you charged a similar fee? If so, have you had any success with any dental insurance companies covering any of this? Your insight would be most helpful and appreciated.

Please note the date of the initial post. I doubt the original poster will be responding to your questions. You might want to start a new thread with your questions to this matter.

Orthognatic surgery is probably the best possible solution, in combination with braces.
A segmentation split osteotomy can bring the upper incisors and canines forward. The gap that is created distal to the canines can be closed by an implant on the left and right.

This thread is closed. If you have a question, please ask anew.
Thank you.
