Why would you want to have surgery?
Since I was little, I couldn't bite my front teeth when I opened my mouth, so I had to use my back teeth to eat. And I feel that the appearance is not good-looking and my mouth is always open. So I consulted Dr. Li Guanghua of Taichung Orthodontics Department, and he recommended me to Dr. Hsieh for orthognathic surgery. Because orthodontics alone cannot improve my open bite problem.
Postoperative recovery period
I drank juice for seven days after the operation. Don’t worry about it. If you don’t drink enough, you will easily feel hungry and lose your physical strength. Seven days after weighing, you can start eating soft food. I always eat risotto or cut the food into small pieces and try to chew it slowly.
Postoperative improvement
My teeth have improved the most after the surgery. I feel my self-confidence and interpersonal relationships have improved. When facing people, I feel more confident talking to them and dare to smile.
