Problems related to the jaw may lie at the root of problems such as dry mouth, involuntary open mouth, bad breath, and gum diseases.
Who Can Have Chin Aesthetics?
With practices such as surgery, filling or prosthesis, according to the needs and personal characteristics of the patient, jaw aesthetic operations designed by specialist physicians help to restructure the chin in a way that provides symmetry on the face.
Although jaw aesthetics is considered as an external appearance-oriented operation, if there are problems experienced by people who intend to perform this operation during biting and chewing, these problems also disappear with the operation. Jaw aesthetics, which benefit people both functionally and visually, can be performed for people whose bone development has been completed and evaluated by specialist physicians. The recommendations of the physician in this regard should be taken into consideration. However, it is also important that the person who will have the operation does not have any problems in the general health status. It is not recommended for people who have frequent allergic reactions to many external factors, and those who are pregnant and breastfeeding to undergo chin aesthetic surgery.
After Chin Aesthetics
After the chin aesthetics, patients can stay in the hospital for a period of 1 to 3 days if the physician deems appropriate and requires the operation. No food should be taken into the body for the first 6 hours after the operation. However, depending on the jaw aesthetic operation, simple symptoms such as mild swelling, redness and pain in the chin area can be seen in many operations for about a week. This situation decreases with the time that passes after the operation and can be controlled with the drugs recommended by the physician if necessary.
Other procedures recommended after chin aesthetics can be listed as follows:
- The person who has chin aesthetics should pay attention to rest and sleep in a way that keeps the head area up after the operation. With this measure, undesirable situations such as redness, bruising, and bleeding can be prevented.
- In the first week following the jaw aesthetic operation, nutrition should be provided with liquid foods and gargle should be done if necessary, in line with the physician’s recommendation. During this period, the transition to solid foods is made gradually.
- After the chin aesthetics, oral cleaning is of great importance. After the operation, it is essential for the patients to perform oral cleaning, especially after meals.
- After the jaw aesthetics, the use of specially prepared bite plates should not be disrupted. These plates will help maintain the correct distance between the lower and upper jaw and prevent unconscious movement of the jaw.
Within 3 months following the chin aesthetic operation, patients should stay away from sports that require heavy activity and should turn to light-paced sports.
