Double jaw surgery. Case # 76: Inés - Class 2, open bite, mandibular hypoplasia

Inés came to correct her Class 2 bite which was causing her difficulty eating and pain in her TMJ. After her surgery, Inés feels much more secure with her image and her functional problems have disappeared.

At 00:20 love the counterclockwise rotation takes place at a rotational center that is more posterior than most cases. Most cases, the rotational center is near the incisors. Here, it appears to take place near the premolars, which keeps the maxilla higher, and doesn’t cause the occlusal plane to drop down. It keeps the facial height from getting longer (which occurs on many cases…but not here). It also allows the jaw and occlusal plane to move more horizontal, again, keeping the face from looking longer. Excellent Job!!👍

Yes, I noticed a common problem with other surgeries is that the jaws are pushed too far forward, in her case everything turned out delicately

[@shivgaming007]

gawd damn now i didnt understand anything but i surely dont want a long face.. longer than it already is hence gotta now google all these terms you just used and then will get back with some questions P

Buen día Doctor, soy de México. Tengo un problema que me ha afectado desde hace años, no puedo respirar bien por la nariz debido a que tengo la cara corta y la misma masa de mi cara obstruye el correcto paso de aire por la nariz. Ya me rrealice la septoplastia y no ayudo en lo absoluto. Llegue a esta conclusión después de haber asistido con un cirujano maxilofacial y realizarme un radiografía CBCT completa, en esta radiografía se muestra por la parte trasera de mi nariz la obstruccion. Con un adelantamiento bimaxilar de los que usted realiza eliminaria este defecto?

My surgeon is suggesting he will provide food from nose for initial days But some doctors saying they do feeding from mouth From nose I feel it's quite scary

[@InstitutoMaxilofacialBarcelona]

Sorry, but we can't comment on that. Our patients can eat from day 1, as we do not do mouth block.

[@swapnilzaveri4271]

@@InstitutoMaxilofacialBarcelona what you mean by mouth block?

[@InstitutoMaxilofacialBarcelona]

@@swapnilzaveri4271 Some surgeons close the mouth shut with metal wire after surgery. This is an outdated method that is still in use in some clinics.
