[Antoninus II]

I had corrective jaw surgery back in my 20s. It was a hereditary thing. They had to “kill” the growth center of my left jaw. That entails shaving the area of the mandible where it meets the skull. And then they fractured the jaw lengthwise, removed a strip of bone from the bottom left section of the jaw and relocated the nerve further up in the bone. Plus they fractured my chin and moved it back a bit. And yes, it was a medical necessity. I couldn't use the entire left side of my jaw to chew. My right molars were already wearing out. I'm still a bit numb on the left side of my face and I have wires in my chin to this day. I'll be 50 next January...

I once accomplished virtually the same thing by crashing a motorcycle in to a tree...
