but the teeth are in normal bite, so as long as it matches the face shape , this defect can be corrected by raising the chin.

The second kind of micromandibular deformity is a more serious deformity. This kind of person has underdeveloped mandibular bones, combined with retruded teeth, and often has other congenital defects and requires plastic surgery. , oral surgery, and orthodontic experts cooperate in treatment.

The swelling will begin to subside from the next day, but it is fixed The band should be worn for three days to reduce swelling and discomfort in the wound. The intraoral sutures are removed about ten days after the operation, and some may fall off on their own. The stitches under the chin can be removed in about 5 days.

2. Pay attention to oral hygiene after chin augmentation, try to have a liquid diet, and make a gradual transition. This can prevent excessive movement of the chin from causing the prosthesis to move. In addition, do not participate in sports that may shock or hit the face for a few weeks after surgery to prevent accidental displacement of the prosthesis due to collision and the sequelae of chin pad.
