A good way to treat chin dislocation
1. After chin dislocation, you can treat it by moving your mouth while brushing your teeth. Generally, stiff muscles will automatically atrophy when they come into contact with toothpaste. , it will recover in about 3 minutes.
2. How to push the joint back to its original position: Put two thumbs into the mouth, pull it out, and then push it up.
3. The cause of jaw dislocation may be lack of calcium and collagen, so it is recommended to supplement protein powder, vitamin C and calcium tablets.
4. Steam white ginseng in water and take it several times a day. In addition, you need to massage and supplement calcium regularly.
2. There is no specific treatment for habitual mandibular joint dislocation. It can be fixed with a bandage for a longer period of time (three months).
This is the so-called "chin drop", which is actually a dislocation of the jaw bone. To avoid this, don't open your mouth too wide when yawning, and pay attention to calcium supplements. This is my personal experience!
Family prevention and treatment of temporomandibular joint dislocation
Temporomandibular (commonly known as the jaw) joint dislocation is a common and frequently-occurring disease in clinical practice. It occurs mostly in middle-aged and elderly people, mostly due to the condyle of the mandible. During the opening movement, the joint exceeds the joint nodule and cannot return to its original position on its own. According to the onset of illness, it is divided into acute temporomandibular joint dislocation and chronic dislocation; if it occurs repeatedly, it is called habitual dislocation.
The cause is mostly sudden violence to the joint or mandible, sometimes after tooth extraction or oral surgery, Throat surgery, intubation anesthesia, forcing the mouth to open with too much force, etc. can cause temporomandibular joint dislocation; this disease can also occur due to loose joint ligaments, yawning, etc. when the mouth is opened wide.
The main symptoms of this disease: the patient's mouth is half-open, unable to close or open, drooling, unclear speech, and difficulty in chewing and swallowing. Due to the forward displacement of the mandible, the cheeks become flat and the face becomes elongated, there is pain or swelling near the joints, the depression in front of the tragus is obvious, and the displaced condyle can be touched below the zygomatic arch.
Regardless of the type of dislocation in this disease, it can be reduced by hand: let the patient sit on an operating chair or a backrest chair, fix the head, and the operator stands in front of the patient, with the elbow joint at the same height as the patient's mandibular teeth. The arm is almost straight, the thumb is wrapped in gauze and inserted into the patient's mouth and placed on the mandibular molar (commonly known as the big tooth). The remaining four fingers hold the body of the mandible (chin), and the thumb gradually presses the mandible downward, under the thumb. While pressing, the other four fingers use force to slowly rotate the chin (chin) forward and push the mandible back into the joint recess. At this time, you can often hear a bouncing sound when the joint is reset. After surgery, the thumb must be quickly moved buccally at the moment of joint reduction to prevent the fingers from being bitten.
Impactation measures: After joint reduction, in order to repair the injured ligaments and joint capsules and prevent chronic dislocation, the mandible must be immobilized for 2-3 weeks. At the same time, the patient is instructed to eat soft food, and cranial massage is also used on the face. The jaw bandage is fixed to limit the opening of the jaw to no more than 1 cm. After reduction of habitual dislocation, sclerosing agent should be injected into the front of the joint capsule to create scars and restrict mandibular movement to prevent repeated dislocation of the mandibular joint (this method should be performed in the hospital).
Masseter muscle exercise in the treatment of habitual temporomandibular joint dislocation
From 1994 to 1998, the author performed masseter muscle exercise on 30 patients with habitual temporomandibular joint dislocation (TMJHD). , the report is as follows.
1. General information: There are 30 patients in this group, 12 males and 18 females, aged 21 to 75 years old, with an average age of 58.5 years. Among them, there were 11 patients with edentulous jaws, 9 patients with deep overbites, 4 patients with unilateral chewing habits, 5 patients with excessively large mouth openings and no obvious occlusal factors, and the cause of 1 case was undetermined. No facial paralysis occurred in any patient. The disease duration was more than 1 month at the time of treatment, and the longest was 5 years. The frequency of onset is generally 1 to 3 times a day, and can be up to 7 times.
2. Masseter muscle exercise method: First, the presence of TMJ inflammation must be ruled out, the removable denture is in place, the tip of the tongue licks the upper palate, and the lower jaw is in the resting position; then place both hands on the face, so that the thumb is in the bite position In the muscle area, place the remaining 4 fingertips on the temporal area without massaging with pressure. The purpose is to sense the contraction of the muscles on both sides during exercise to ensure a balanced bite force on both sides. Then try to keep the lower jaw in the neutral position, keep the upper and lower teeth relatively still, and clench your teeth 30 to 60 times, once per second. Stop when you feel tired and sore. Pay attention to the bilateral bite force to be balanced and moderate. After the exercise, you can massage the TMJ and surrounding muscles a few times to reduce the soreness, or do a few small opening exercises to relax the biting muscles. The usual opening should be limited to 2cm. Exercise 3 times a day, mainly after getting up in the morning, after lunch and before going to bed at night. Each course of treatment is 3 months.
