    1. Postoperative swelling:

    There will definitely be a considerable degree of facial swelling after the surgery. In general, the more surgeries you undergo and the longer the surgery, the more visible the swelling will be. Of the various procedures, sagittal splitting of the mandible causes the most significant swelling.

    As for the change in the degree of swelling, it is usually more noticeable in the first week and is not suitable for outdoor activities, and then it will start to subside significantly, and in the second week or so, although it still appears swollen in appearance, it will not be too noticeable. Clause.

    After three or four weeks, the appearance is mostly no longer obvious, but the patient will still feel puffy, tight, and unnatural, but the swelling will continue to improve over time, so there is no need to worry too much, usually.

    After two or three months, it will be natural. Therefore, if you need to take a leave of absence, it is recommended to take a two-to-three-week break, and at least one week off. 2. Numbness of the gums:

    In the case of anterior maxillary osteotomy, the sensory nerve of the anterior gums will be severed by stripping the tissue and opening the bone during the surgery, so the anterior gums will feel numb after the surgery. Recovery will occur after about four months after surgery. 3. Difficulty in biting words:

    Due to the unsatisfactory alignment of the teeth immediately after the surgery, gaps (in some cases even larger than before the surgery) may occur, and the clarity of the bite will be affected. However, after a period of postoperative treatment, orthodontic treatment will gradually return to normal. In addition, orthognathic surgery will change the relative relationship between the upper and lower teeth, the relationship between the tongue and the upper and lower jaws, and the feeling of the gums, so there will be a period of difficulty in speaking fluently at the beginning, and you need to learn to adapt.

    Usually after surgery.

    It can be recovered in one or two months. 4. Postoperative**

    Precautions for orthognathic surgery.

    The recovery period for orthognathic surgery is generally about one month, but the recovery period varies depending on each person's actual situation.

    Since I was a child, my teeth have not grown well, and I have low self-esteem because my teeth are not good-looking, and I didn't make up my mind to have orthognathic surgery until I was 40 years old, but what should I do if I regret having orthognathic surgery at the age of 40? Some people find that *** begins to exist on their hands after 10 years of orthognathic surgery, and they want to know what are the sequelae of orthognathic surgery after 10 years?

Its sequelae are related to physical fitness, postoperative care, surgical results, surgeons, etc. If you do not want to have a variety of sequelae after orthognathic surgery, you must choose a reliable hospital and doctor before the surgery, and do a good job of nursing after the surgery.

    I don't think you should think about the question of whether you should have been in the first place, the doctor flickered or not, these are all questions that can't be explained. You should look forward, life is not the little bit you think, life is very wide, and one roadblock cannot block all the way out.

    If you think someone like Hawking is too far away from you, then what about Wu Jianping, an armless college student at Zhengzhou Institute of Light Industry?

    Also, Li Jiedong, a student at the School of Clinical Medicine of Zhengzhou University, had an arm amputated due to a malignant tumor, what did he say? He said: "Sighing is regretting the past, laughing is affirming the future."

    Loss is always painful, and it is sad to wallow in the pain of loss, either choose to exhaust your life and live in the past, or come out of the gloom and regain your life. ”

    You may have had a lot of them before, but how many are there? You want to be a soldier, don't you haven't been a soldier yet? How many people have been in the army?

    How many people when? What did you cling to before? What people are attached to should only be beliefs, and you can still be persistent, as long as this belief can stand the test.

    And the attachment that cannot withstand the test of setbacks is not called attachment, but paranoia.

    You now have temporomandibular joint problems, as well as post-operative depression, you need to root your life, you should first be positive**, and then start your life again.
