Protruding Mouth Surgery Procedures

Unlike two-jaw surgery, which moves the entire jawbone, One Percent delicately corrects protruding gums and teeth in proportion to the face by extracting the teeth behind the canines, resecting the gum bone, and pushing the teeth and skeleton back.

1

Extraction of teeth behind canines

Extract the tooth behind the canine, taking into account the space for the tooth to move.

2

Gum incision

After the tooth is extracted, a delicate incision is made in the gum.

3

Fine-tune the tooth and gum skeleton posteriorly

After osteotomising the gum bone, fine-tune the teeth and skeleton backwards.

4

Fix securely with retaining pins

Finish by fixing the bones securely through the pins.

Years of accumulated expertise

One Percent‘s point is this.
This is the difference based on years of clinical experience and know-how.

  • 1

    We show every customer the difference
    before and after surgery using 3D CT imaging.

    If the surgical results were not satisfactory,
    it would be difficult to disclose the differences before and after surgery.
    However, based on our confident results, we meticulously compare
    and show all our customers the before and after using 3D CT imaging.

  • 2

    Orthodontic Treatment is Not Mandatory
    We recommend it only to those who truly need it.

    Some clinics insist on orthodontic treatment for
    all cases when undergoing bimaxillary surgery.
    However, at One Percent, we conduct comprehensive evaluations, including occlusion,
    allowing us to resolve issues with surgery alone.
    We do not recommend unnecessary orthodontic treatment if it is deemed unnecessary.

  • 3

    Extensive Clinical Experience
    in Midface Reduction Surgery

    Reducing the midface is crucial for shortening a long face.
    Simply reducing the lower jaw length can disrupt facial proportions
    due to the midface length. Therefore, reducing the midface requires
    ample experience and numerous proven clinical cases to be performed safely.

    Balancing Safety and Aesthetics
    in Facial Bone Surgery

    Our surgeries, backed by various clinical experiences,
    consider both functional and aesthetic aspects.
    We aim for fundamental functionality and appearance improvement of the jaw,
    creating beautiful faces and natural smiles for our patients.

  • 5

    Pre-Surgery System Requires
    High Technical Skill

    Traditional bimaxillary surgery methods required
    at least six months of orthodontic treatment before surgery
    and additional orthodontic periods after, often taking an average of two years to complete.
    However, the pre-surgery method at One Percent eliminates the need for pre-surgery orthodontics,
    significantly reducing unnecessary time. This approach can only be recommended
    by those with extensive clinical experience and expertise.
