Jaw surgery
The characteristic of a protruding chin is when the lower jaw protrudes forward more than the upper jaw, causing the lower teeth to overlap or not meet the upper teeth before surgery. Planning the surgery to be appropriate for the patient is the most important thing.
Surgerical Time : 2 - 3 hours
Hospital recovery period of 1-2 days
Check the wound at the hospital no more than 5 times.
After 2 weeks post-surgery, you can resume your normal activities.
Braces before perform Surgery
After the completion of the orthognathic surgery and the surgical results meet the planned outcome, the orthodontist will proceed with the orthodontic treatment to align the teeth into the predetermined position prior to surgery. This process may take several months depending on the diagnosis of the orthodontist.
Bilateral Sagittal Split Ramus Osteotomy (BSSRO)
The surgery takes about 3-5 hours and the hospital recovery time is about 1-3 days.
It is a surgical procedure that divides the upper and lower jaw into two parts, and then moves the jawbone backward to overlap. Screws are used to hold the jaw in place.
Braces After Surgery
After the orthognathic surgery is completed and the surgical outcome meets the predetermined plan, the orthodontist will proceed with the orthodontic treatment to align the teeth into the positions planned before the surgery. This process may take several months, depending on the diagnosis of the orthodontist.
Surgery for lower jaw positioned too low.
1. Braces before perform Surgery
If the diagnosis shows that the lower jaw is too far back, the expert surgeon and orthodontist will determine whether lower jaw surgery (BSSRO) is necessary for the patient.
After that, the orthodontist will prepare a dental plan before the jaw surgery, which may take several months to make the teeth most suitable for the surgery.
2. Orthognathic surgery
If the orthodontist determines that the alignment of teeth and the chin are suitable for the patient, then the next step is to proceed with the jaw surgery.
The entire surgical process takes place inside the mouth and lasts for approximately 90 minutes. The patient will need to rest at the hospital for about one day, and then use a cloth to hold the bone in place for about 1-4 weeks. BSSRO involves dividing the lower jawbone into two parts and adjusting the lower jaw and all the lower teeth forward. Screws are used to hold the position.
3. Post-surgery orthodontic treatment
After the jaw surgery is completed, the patient will need to undergo orthodontic treatment again to prevent the teeth from returning to their original position. This process may take several months, depending on the diagnosis of the doctor.
