The development of the anteromedial mandibular process determines the shape of the chin pad. If the chin is not well developed, it will retreat backward in a slope shape, forming a back chin, which has a great influence on the facial contour.
Extended data:
Matters needing attention in chin pad surgery are as follows:
1. Patients with dental caries or other dental diseases should be corrected first.
2. Do not take drugs containing aspirin within two weeks before operation, because aspirin will reduce platelet coagulation function.
3. Make sure you are healthy before the operation, and there is no infectious disease or other body inflammation.
4. Women should avoid menstrual period.
5. Brush your teeth and clean your mouth before operation.
