Maxillofacial asymmetry is difficult to define in one or two sentences. Because not only its symptoms are diverse, but also its causes and components that cause asymmetry are diverse.

The treatment of maxillofacial asymmetry begins with finding out its causes. First of all, the difference in the size of the left and right chin may be a reason, but even if the size of the left and right chin is similar, if the chin itself is twisted or skewed, it may be the reason. Sometimes it may have something to do with the chin joints.

The same is true of cheekbones. If the left and right dimensions are different, the face will be asymmetrical. You can even see the distortion of the entire facial skeleton itself. According to research, only one in ten thousand people have the same face on both sides. From this

It seems that in a sense, it is normal to be different from left to right. It's just the weight. If the chin skew is the cause of asymmetry, you can correct the chin at the same time.

Large-scale osteotomy to correct teeth. If it is only the difference in the size of cheekbones or chin bones, just adjust the reduction amount.

In fact, when taking X-rays to reduce the square face, you will find that you can hardly see people with the same chin on both sides. There are more people who are slightly asymmetrical. The size and shape of the resection site can be flexibly adjusted during operation, and the shape after operation is closer to symmetry than before. Only in this way can the asymmetry of chin contour and face be corrected.
