Who should have overbite treatment and sliding genioplasty?
Overbite treatment and sliding genioplasty
Overbite treatment is a surgical method that involves cutting and realigning the jawbone in cases where the upper jaw bone grows too much, protruding outward, causing the chewing and biting joints to be misaligned.
The overbite surgery is performed for those who have overbite due to congenital, genetic, protruding teeth, habits of eating hard food, pushing the tongue, or jaw injuries. These conditions need to be fixed quickly for high efficiency.
Sliding genioplasty
Sliding genioplasty is a surgical method to adjust the jawbone in case the lower jaw develops slower than the upper jaw, making the jaw shape short that affects the function of the jaw and facial aesthetics.
Sliding genioplasty surgery is performed to correct shortened lower chin, the lower jaw is reduced due to tooth extraction, the lower jaw is congenitally deformed or due to strong trauma.
Overbite treatment and sliding genioplasty
The doctor will combine both methods in cases both the upper and lower jaws overgrows and deviate from each other as well as making the face asymmetrical.
During surgery, the upper jawbone will be cut and pushed in, and the lower jawbone will be cut and slid out so that the chewing joint and bite joint are close together, the length of the two jaws is proportional and aesthetic.
