One Year After Orthognathic Surgery

One Year After Orthognathic Surgery / Taiwan TV Show 03/30/2016

What is the reason for receiving orthognathic surgery?

I had a problem of occlusion. The upper and lower back teeth on the left were not aligned well. After the evaluation, my orthodontist pointed out that my occlusion problem could not be solved simply by orthodontic treatment and he suggested that it was necessary to work with orthognathic surgery to improve my occlusion. Later, the problem of my occlusion was getting more and more serious. So I started to contact and consult with Dr. Hsieh Ming-Ji’s clinic. Detailed information was given to me in the process of consultancy at clinic. Then I was ready for receiving the surgery.

What are the conditions during recovery after surgery? How long can a patient go back to work?

A patient is usually hospitalized for one day after surgery. Patience is all a patient needs during the process of recovery. So anyone who receives the surgery should be mentally prepared for it. The surgery requires general anesthesia. A patient can experience swollen and uncomfortable conditions after surgery. I live a bit far from the clinic but it isn’t a trouble for me to come to the clinic.

1 st ~10 th day after surgery:I ate liquid food for ten days. The food was served without any dregs at room temperature. A syringe was used for eating the liquid food. My pillow was piled a bit higher when I slept.
Starting from the 10 th day after surgery:I started eating soft food, such as cooler porridge.The ability to chew was still weaker.
Starting from the 14 th day after surgery:basic “functions” like talking, eating, etc. recovered to a normal level. Don’t worry too much. I took a rest for about one and a half month before I went back to work because of the nature of my work (need to face customers, often talking for a long time). My appearance got recovered almost the same as before surgery.

What makes Dr. Hsieh Ming-Ji different from others?

Dr. Hsieh’s techniques are really good. When I started looking for an orthognathic surgeon right for me, just like everyone else, I went to several clinics or big hospitals for consulting. The old concept of traditional orthognathic surgery wasn’t broken until I visited Dr. Hsieh. The environment, doctors and staff of the center are reliable to entrust myself to.

Changes after surgery?

After the surgery, the changes in appearance substantially boost “self-confidence”. The functions of eating and chewing have been improved. The teeth at the back are able to chew food, which makes me feel very happy.

Recovery period of orthognathic surgery: Dr. Hsieh Ming-Ji at Charm v.s. others

A friend of my colleague’s received orthognathic surgery around two or three years ago. But my colleague told me that there was a big difference in recovery period between that friend and I. At that time, he needed to lie in bed for a long time during the recovery period. It took him around half a year to get recovered. He ate liquid food for four to five months. There is a big gap between our conditions in recovery. During my recovery period, I only ate liquid food for ten days and then I started eating soft food. One month later, I could begin chewing. In the early period of recovery, the muscles of the mouth are weaker. It is suggested to practice opening the mouth often.Comparisons in recovery period of orthognathic surgery between Dr.Hsieh Ming Ji at Charm and others

什麼時候需要正顎手術?

粗略的說，「咬合不正（malocclusion）」的人，或是因為顎骨問題而影響美觀的人，需要正顎手術治療。
咬合不正常常造成所謂的暴牙、戽斗、鳥嘴、歪臉、月亮臉，其實它的影響不止於此。由於上下顎有部分的牙齒咬不到（稱為「開咬（openbite）」），或是咬起來的位置內外相反（稱為「錯咬（crossbite）」），或是咬合面傾斜不對稱，造成了進食、說話、呼吸、顳顎關節、社會適應等一連串的問題。
咬合不正的人，可能因為上下牙齒咬不到，無法切斷或是咀嚼食物；也可能因為上下嘴唇與舌頭的位置不對，說話時有某些字無法發音；也可能為了遷就咬合不正的齒列，下顎運動異常，而造成長期頭痛與慢性的顳顎關節障礙；在心理上的影響更不能忽視，咬合不正往往帶來社會適應問題，因為它對臉部外觀影響鉅大。
視覺是人類最主要用來辨認彼此的方式，在人際互動的過程中，大多數人從容貌開始認識對方。我們不樂見的是，人們因為與內心世界不相稱的顏面外觀，而折損到應有的社交享受。臉，是通往世界的窗口，而我們要讓世界看到真正的你。

所有咬合不正都需要正顎手術嗎?

並不是所有咬合不正，都需要正顎手術。咬合不正其實是個較狹隘的名詞，我們的用語叫「齒顎顏面畸形（dentofacial deformity）」，它包含牙齒、顎骨兩項因素，而影響顏面外觀。通常，顎骨生長正常，只有牙齒排列不整齊的人，可以單純靠牙齒矯正治療（orthodontic treatment）。所謂的牙齒矯正，是在牙齒上裝矯正器（俗稱牙套），這項療程是由矯正科醫師負責。顎骨生長異常，則需要同時接受牙齒矯正、正顎手術兩項治療。正顎手術調整顎骨位置，由口腔顎面外科醫師負責。牙齒矯正則是調整牙齒排列，由齒顎矯正科醫師負責。
