Eating and Nutrition Tips During Orthognathic Surgery Recovery 0
Orthognathic surgery, or jaw surgery, is an intricate procedure carried out on the jaw, in severe cases of dental misalignments. Jaw surgery can treat dental issues such as overbite, underbite, open bite, crossbite, too much or too little teeth showing and a receding or protruding jaw. It is an extremely successful operation that can both enhance facial harmony as well as correct irregularities of the jawbone, improving how the jaw operates and how the teeth work, as well as correct problems with speech, improve sleep quality, improve chewing, biting and much more.
After surgery, it’s possible to experience some discomfort, as with any operation but with rest and careful attention to dietary choices, recovery can be smooth sailing. Our team here at Northenden House Orthodontics have years of expertise in assisting jaw surgery patients, so if you're seeking orthognathic surgery in Manchester, the below guide may help you to make that all-important decision.
