Orthognathic Surgery

Mandible surgery

Not only is the lower jaw functionally crucial for eating, speaking, and breathing,
but it is also a critical determinant of the beautiful shape of our faces,
whether we have a lantern jaw, broad chin, long chin, short chin, or no chin.
This means that the shape of the lower jaw is a major determinant of a person's attractiveness,
and customized surgery that takes into account the length, width,
and degree of protrusion of the jawbone is necessary
to achieve a chiseled, refined jaw that is both functional and perfect.

Natural beauty
and functionality,
both in one!

1percent Point

  • Performed by experienced
    medical staff

    A surgeon experienced
    in microvascular surgery will
    also carefully check for
    microbleeds that occur during
    surgery to minimize bleeding.

  • Differences in
    intermaxillary fixation

    When the displaced
    jawbone is immobilized for
    a period of time with wires or bands
    to keep the upper and lower teeth
    from moving, it's called intermaxillary
    fixation. This allows for a correct
    and secure bite without intermaxillary
    anchorage, resulting in a safer surgery
    and a more comfortable recovery
    with less pain and discomfort
    for the patient.

  • Additional surgeries
    as needed

    For more aesthetic results,
    chin tip surgery or square
    jaw surgery can be combined
    as needed to achieve
    the best surgical outcome.

Mandibular movement is enough to
correct the bite and provide sufficient improvement

Mandibular surgery in 'One Percent' is a surgery that repositions the entire lower jaw to match the bite,
and if the upper jaw bones are in normal position and function and are not aesthetically compromised,
the bite can be corrected by moving the lower jaw alone rather than attempting a full jaw surgery,
resulting in half the surgical scope of a full jaw surgery.

  • Is it possible to have a beautiful and stable mandibular surgery?

    Many clinics focus on the aesthetic aspect of mandibular surgery
    and overlook the functional aspect.
    Or, conversely, many patients consider oral and maxillofacial surgery based on
    the functional part only and cannot decide because they think that it is
    difficult to meet the aesthetic part of oral and maxillofacial surgery.
    The functional part of jaw correction surgery is the basic of the basics,
    but the aesthetic part is also an important part that should not be overlooked.
    We can confidently say that One Percent Plastic Surgery is the only place where
    you can get the best of both worlds: aesthetics and functionality.

    One Percent Plastic Surgery is a team of doctors with extensive clinical experience in facial bone surgery.
    Through constant research, we design facial bones that are not one-size-fits-all to improve your
    functional issues while giving you a unique and refined look.

Years of accumulated expertise

There are two main types of mandibular surgery: sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) and intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy (IVRO).
At One Percent Maxillofacial, we don't specialize in one method over the other. A surgeon who specializes in mandibular surgery
should be able to perform all of the procedures in the spectrum of maxillofacial surgery.
The right procedure for you may vary depending on your symptoms, and it's best to choose the method that best improves your center of gravity.
At One Percent's Mandible Surgery, we take into account the way your jawbone moves, the location of your nerve lines,
and the risks involved, and recommend the best option for your comfort and safety, so that you can have the best possible outcome,
both aesthetically and cosmetically.

Beyond Limits

SSRO(sagittal split ramus osteotomy) Procedure

It is more stable immediately after surgery and is more comfortable as it avoids intermaxillary fixation. Although the surgical time is longer than IVRO, it favors a stable recovery and provides better initial fixation. The risk of nerve damage is relatively high due to the scope of the cut surface, but preoperative 3D CT to pinpoint the location of the nerve tracks and skilled surgeons to perform the surgery make it safer.

1

Oblique Osteotomy

Osteotomize the lower jaw obliquely to separate it into two plates.

2

Move after osteotomy

Move the osteotomized lower jaw to the ideal position.

3

Fix with pins

Fix the osteotomized bone with pins to prevent it from moving.

Growing
Beyond Limits

IVRO(intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy) Procedure

The surgery is simpler and reduces the risk of nerve damage. Even those with TMJ disorders and pain can benefit from improvement, which can greatly prevent side effects such as nerve damage.

1

Vertical Osteotomy

Make a vertical cut at the top of the jawbone.

2

Move after osteotomy

Move the osteotomized lower jaw backward.

3

Move after osteotomy

Allow the mandible and condyle to settle into their natural position without using pins.
