Iván is an artist from Bulgaria who, for a long time, sought a solution for his lower jaw, which was significantly recessed in relation to his upper jaw. He also experienced clicking and crackling sounds in his temporomandibular joint.
After searching for the right treatment, he came to the Maxillofacial Institute in Barcelona, where he underwent orthognathic surgery performed by Prof. Federico Hernández-Alfaro’s team.
In this testimonial, Iván shares how he feels today. The joint noises have disappeared, and although he was very afraid of the post-operative period before the procedure, he now looks back on his recovery as a time marked by very positive emotions. As an artist who performs in front of an audience, both the functional and aesthetic outcomes were essential to him.
