Can I have braces if I have braces?

It can be corrected. Nowadays, medical technology is very advanced, so there are many ways to correct the ground, so you should seek medical attention in time when you find discomfort, and experts will formulate a suitable surgical plan based on your situation. Some of the more common correction methods include the following:

1. Mandibular correction: This method of mandibular correction is also more commonly used, mainly for the case of antignathic deformity caused by mandibular protrusion, and the operation is mainly for the mandible, after an extra osteotomy, the mandible is retracted as a whole to correct the mandibular protrusion, so as to achieve the purpose of correcting the antignathic deformity. By osteotomy of the mandible, the length of the mandible is not only shortened, but also the maxilla rotates upwards while receding, and the angle of the mandible becomes smaller, and the view from the side becomes more visible.

For the elderly, the chin bone should be shortened at the same time.

2. Maxillary osteotomy: When many friends consult how to correct teeth, doctors recommend that you choose this method. However, this method is aimed at the case of cross-jaw deformity caused by maxillary retraction, that is, the purpose of correcting the cross-jaw deformity is achieved by moving the maxilla as a whole forward by an extraordinary osteotomy.

At the same time, after the maxilla was moved forward, the depression of the middle of the face was also significantly improved. In some patients, if the nose is low after the correction of crossbite deformity, rhinoplasty can be performed to further increase the three-dimensional effect of the face.

3. It is particularly pointed out that in early childhood, it is only necessary to simply wear orthosis for correction. However, if it is not corrected until adulthood, then the only way is to perform surgery to correct it.

Dental deformities such as the ground should be detected as soon as possible**, and generally speaking, it is best to correct the tooth before the age of 12 without tooth replacement. Most people who have had their teeth replaced at the age of 12 need surgery to correct them. After the tooth replacement period, not only does the best period of orthodontic correction be missed, but it seriously affects the normal development of the mouth and jaw.

4. Patients with antignathic deformity who have maxillary retraction and mandibular protrusion at the same time need to perform maxillary osteotomy and mandibular osteotomy and retraction at the same time, and if necessary, chin osteotomy and reconstruction.

It is recommended to go to the dental hospital to diagnose the specific situation of the individual to the dental specialist before determining the best plan.

It is better to do it early.

Ground Hazards:

1. Affect pronunciation. In crossbiting, the closure of the upper and lower jaws is affected due to changes in the tongue and the space it occupies. As a result, it may lead to slurred pronunciation, which affects learning and communication.

2. Affect the shape of the face: Irregular dentition leads to uncoordinated facial appearance and abnormal growth of jaws and soft tissues. Crowded or protruding teeth, causing an overall disorder of the face and seriously affecting the shape of the face.

3. Affect the health of dental tissue: the uneven column makes the oral plaque easy to attach and not easy to clean, causing gum and periodontal inflammation, gum swelling, periodontal inflammation, bleeding and other symptoms, and over time it becomes an oral disease.

4. Affect the function of teeth and jaws. In the cross-jaw, because the anterior teeth cannot be opposed, the ability to cut food is reduced, and the lower jaw is forced to change the occlusal relationship of the posterior teeth due to excessive protrusion, and the normal bite ability is lost, thus reducing the chewing ability.

Surgical methods.

Vertical osteotomy.

In this surgery, the back of the jaw is cut vertically and the joint is naturally adjusted by moving the jaw back.

Mandibular branch sagittal bone splitting.

This is a very common type of surgery, in which the posterior jaw is cut into two parts, and the lower jaw is pushed backward so that they overlap each other, and finally fixed with a plate or wire.

Surgery on both jaws. Suitable for friends who have abnormal joint of the upper and lower jaws and want to have a V-face, through the operation of the two jaws, the chin can be moved to the appropriate position, so that the upper and lower teeth can be bitten normally, restore dental skills and aesthetics, and achieve V-face at the same time.

The surgery requires only local anesthesia and is performed through an intraoral incision with no scarring on the surface. The operation is mainly to directly adjust the relationship between the tooth and the jaw by opening the alveolar bone (cancellous bone, good blood, fast healing, and no scars after healing). Compared with the traditional orthodontic surgery to open the supporting bone (dense bone, poor blood**, slow healing, there are joint marks after local healing), osteotomy adjusts the relationship between the tooth and the jaw, the risk is smaller, and the effect is better.

1. For the antignathic deformity caused by mandibular protrusion, the operation is mainly aimed at the mandible, and after the osteotomy by a special alveolar bone intotomy, part of the alveolar bone is withdrawn to correct the mandibular protrusion, so as to achieve the purpose of correcting the antignathic deformity. By retracting the alveolar bone osteotomy, not only the length of the lower jaw is shortened, but the angle of the mandible is reduced and the angle of the mandible becomes more beautiful when viewed from the side. For the elderly, the chin bone should be shortened at the same time.

2. For the antignathic deformity caused by maxillary retraction, it is necessary to perform maxillary alveolar bone osteotomy and advancement, that is, through a special osteotomy, the maxillary alveolar bone is moved forward to achieve the purpose of correcting the antignathic deformity. At the same time, after the maxillary alveolar bone was moved forward, the depression of the middle part of the face was also significantly improved. In some patients, if the nose is low after the correction of the crossbite deformity, rhinoplasty can be performed to further increase the three-dimensional effect of the face.

Age 3 Patients with cross-jaw deformity with both maxillary retraction and mandibular protrusion require simultaneous maxillary alveolar bone advancement and mandibular alveolar bone recession, and if necessary, chin osteotomy.

If you take your child to an orthodontist, it is not osseous misunion that can be corrected before the peak of growth and development.
