A recent highlight of my office was a combined surgery to correct severe maxillofacial problems. The patient presented with upper and lower jaw disharmony, improper chin symmetry, and functional problems such as difficulty in chewing and speaking. After careful examination, combined surgery including maxilla advancement , mandibular setback and genioplasty was planned and performed for him.
Preliminary examination and detailed planning
In the initial examination, it was found that the upper jaw was significantly posterior than normal and the lower jaw was anterior than standard. To investigate more details, we used CBCT imaging , which provided a detailed 3D view of facial bones and structures. These images helped us plan the surgery more accurately.
Surgical procedures
The surgery was performed using advanced techniques and in three stages:
- Maxilla advancement : The upper jaw bone was carefully cut and moved forward to improve facial balance.
- Mandible Setback : The lower jaw was moved back to better coordinate with the upper jaw.
- Genioplasty : The chin was adjusted to the ideal position to complete the symmetry of the face.
The final result
After surgery, the patient experienced significant changes in facial symmetry, improved jaw function, and overall appearance. The images before and after the surgery show the successful results of this specialized intervention. The patient was able to resume chewing and speaking easily and was very satisfied with his new appearance.
Post-surgery care
For faster recovery and reduction of possible complications, the patient should follow the following instructions:
- Consumption of soft foods for up to 6 weeks.
- Using a cold compress in the early days to reduce swelling.
- Regular visits to the clinic to check the healing process.
