Mandibular Jaw Orthognathic Surgery
Mandibular jaw surgery is mainly done for reshaping and resizing the lower jaw to correct the jawline. It helps treat conditions such as:
- Protruded lower jaw
- Deficient lower jaw
- Short lower face
Functional Concerns
Mandibular prognathism can cause:
- Dental issues: Crossbite, malocclusion, or uneven teeth wear
- Chewing difficulties: Trouble biting or
- chewing food properly
- Speech problems: Articulation issues due to jaw alignment
- TMJ disorders: Jaw joint pain or clicking
- Lip or cheek biting: Due to misalignment of teeth or jaw
Cosmetic Concerns
Mandibular prognathism (protruding lower jaw) can cause:
- Facial imbalance: Prominent chin or jawline
- Jaw protrusion affecting facial harmony
- Dental issues: Crossbite, malocclusion, or uneven teeth
- Aesthetic concerns: Self-consciousness about appearance
Pre-Surgical Preparation
The notes outline several steps required before undergoing these surgeries:
- Pre-surgical Orthodontics: Often needed before the actual surgery takes place. Imaging: X-rays and CT scans are required.
- Planning: Virtual surgical planning is performed on a computer, along with model surgery.
- Psychological Evaluation: Conducted to ensure a successful outcome for the patient.
Post-Surgical Preparation
- Hospital Stay: Typically lasts approximately 3-4 days.
- Discharge Criteria: Patients can be discharged once they can start taking soft food orally and can perform day-to-day activities by themselves.
