Friends who have finished mandibular angle resection should take a semi-recumbent position or a sitting position, extract 20ml of mouthwash with a 20ml syringe, then put it on the back area of molar or missing tooth with a straw, and then push the mouthwash. After the mouthwash enters, gently stir it with your tongue for 3-5 minutes, extract the mouthwash with a syringe until the extracted liquid becomes clear, and finally rinse with warm water.
2. Don't laugh within 15 days after operation.
After mandibular angle osteotomy, doctors will generally remind you not to shout and laugh with your mouth open, especially during the swelling reduction (usually about 10- 15 days after operation). The reason is not that your jaw will fall off, but that during the recovery period, any external impact on the jaw position will make you feel pain and discomfort, which will affect the final plastic surgery effect.
3. Don't chew hard objects for half a month after operation.
In order to reduce swelling, the headgear is usually put on after operation, which will be uncomfortable, but it must not be moved or removed at will, otherwise it will easily delay the healing period, and may also lead to facial deformation, and bite your teeth for a few days to make your face smaller. In addition, it is best to eat semi-liquid diets such as rice soup, fruit juice and vegetable porridge within half a month after bone grinding. Don't chew anything too hard, and then return to normal diet after half a month.
4. Learn to divert attention to relieve pain.
There may be obvious pain in the first few days after the anesthetic disappears after surgery. Semi-recumbent position can reduce the swelling and pain in the operation department. In addition, you can listen to your favorite music to distract yourself, or consider taking analgesic drugs recommended by doctors to relieve pain. However, when you have severe and persistent facial pain, you need to see a doctor immediately.
