Jawbone Surgery

This is an era of beauty, and nowadays many people have complaints about their appearance. Many times we will find that it is because our jawbone is not so perfect that our appearance is at a low point. Because of this, many people choose plastic surgery, and the current plastic surgery technology is very advanced. Many times we can use some professional plastic surgery to help ourselves make certain adjustments. Let us now learn more about mandibular plastic surgery!

1. Mandibular plastic surgery

The mandibular hypertrophy is removed from the mouth. Generally, general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation is used. Except for the last molar in the mouth, the mucosa is incised to the periosteum in the mandibular area. After separation within an appropriate range and full exposure, an oscillating saw is used to cut off an appropriate part of the mandibular bone, grind it flat to stop bleeding, restore the periosteum and suture it, and then suture the mucosa.

II. Introduction

1. Internal incision method:

Advantages: No surgical traces are left.

Disadvantages: The difficulty of the operation is greatly increased. At the same time, the risk of the operation is also increased, and the postoperative recovery period is relatively long. Postoperative care The area around the oral cavity is prone to infection and the cost of surgery is high.

2. Extraoral incision method:

Under local anesthesia, make a 2-5cm long skin incision at a relatively hidden position at the lower edge of the mandible, then expose the masseter muscle and partially remove the masticatory muscle. If there is mandibular bone hypertrophy, an appropriate part of the mandible needs to be cut off in an arc shape, then smoothed with a bone file, and the periosteum, muscle, subcutaneous tissue and skin are sutured layer by layer.

Advantages: The operation is simple, the exposure is sufficient, the osteotomy is precise, the recovery is quick, and the cost is low.

Disadvantages: Surgical scars are left on the face.

3. Principle

A square face or a square face can be corrected through mandibular plastic surgery to create an oval or melon-shaped face. Mandibular plastic surgery mainly involves removing or grinding the widened part through an incision in the mouth. Although this operation has a good post-operative effect, it also causes certain trauma to the human body, and there will inevitably be corresponding complications after the operation. The experts in the mandibular angle plastic surgery hospital will perform targeted mandibular angle plastic surgery according to the patient's personal situation, beautify the contours of the maxillofacial area and other parts, and completely change the unsatisfactory face shape.

Under normal circumstances: the chin can be square, round, flat or hypertrophic, and most surgeries only remove part of the mandible, but lack a comprehensive consideration of the connection between the chin, mandibular margin and mandibular angle, and factors such as limited skin incisions. As a result, the face shape often does not change significantly after plastic surgery, and the satisfaction rate after mandibular angle plastic surgery is relatively low.

The main purpose of mandibular plastic surgery is to remove the thin mandible or zygomatic arch. Before the operation, a clear diagnosis must be made to determine whether the mandibular hypertrophy is a normal psychological condition or a pathological abnormality. If it is pathological bone proliferation or tumor, further systematic and comprehensive examination and comprehensive surgical treatment are required. If you are concerned about a simple benign condition of the mandible or zygomatic arch, you can consider surgery to remove part of the mandible and zygomatic arch. Before surgery, it is necessary to clarify the level and range of mandibular hypertrophy and the level of zygomatic arch elevation, and measure and estimate the range and amount of mandibular and zygomatic arch elevation.

4. Precautions before surgery

1. Do not take medications containing aspirin within two weeks before mandibular plastic surgery, as aspirin can reduce the function of platelet coagulation;

2. To undergo mandibular bone removal surgery, you must be in good health, have no infectious diseases or other body inflammation, no oral infection sources, and no organic lesions of important organs, such as heart disease, hepatitis, nephritis, pneumonia, etc.

3. Patients with hypertension and diabetes should inform the doctor of their condition in detail during the initial consultation so that the doctor can confirm the mandibular plastic surgery plan.
