Can I really change my face shape after orthodontics?
It seems that orthodontics is a project that many people will do now, from elementary school to junior high school, to people in their 30s and 40s. But some beauty seekers read some news on the Internet that they can do orthodontics if they want to lose face. At first, I didn't understand this, but later I learned that some people thought that orthodontics could make face smaller and thinner, What is the specific situation? Is there such a change? Let's see what the experts say.
**Orthodontics can't change bones
Tooth correction for the sake of slimming face can not achieve the desired effect, because the correction can not solve the bone problem. Simple correction of teeth can not change the width of bones. The width of bones is determined by the width of jaws. It is impossible for us to narrow the entire jaw by correcting teeth. Some patients may feel that their face looks thinner after tooth correction, but in fact, the width of their bones has not changed.
Second, pulling out wisdom teeth can not lose face
After the wisdom teeth are pulled out, the face will not be so fat. In fact, this effect is negligible. Because in addition to the mandibular angle bone, there is also a piece of soft tissue on it, which also has a certain thickness. It will not be so obvious if it is highlighted a little, and it will not shrink back a lot if it is reduced a little, so in fact it will not solve the problem.
In addition, there is a surgery called orthognathic surgery in orthodontics, which is much more complicated than other orthodontics. In fact, orthognathic surgery belongs to oral and maxillofacial surgery, which can be performed jointly by orthodontics and maxillofacial surgery.
The surgery is usually done first, but this kind of correction is different from the conventional correction. Its main purpose is to prepare for the surgery. The surgery can be divided into maxilla surgery and mandible surgery. If the maxilla is convex, the maxilla should retract and move backward; So is the mandible. These are all based on the actual situation of the patient. After the correction, the design of model surgery should be done first to see how much forward and backward is needed. Sometimes the upper jaw is done alone, sometimes the lower jaw is done alone, and sometimes the upper jaw needs to be done together, so this is a more complicated operation.
