  • Invisalign braces after jaw surgery!

  • Writer : An**




Motivation

I cannot recognize it until someone take picture for me. It seems like my bottom jaw is bothering me a lot that I tend to cover my mouth while I am take picture. Also, when people make comment about my bottom jaw… those word hurts me a lot. Also, it leads me to have a low self-esteem. I also want to improve my appearance with braces but… orthodontist does not recommend me to do braces since those process will ruin my appearance. They just told me that I need double jaw surgery.

 

Why EU?

2) professional career

I referred to it in the hospital introduction, and it was good to have both oral and dental specialists.

3) number of doctors

My doctor treated me until when I done with cure process.

3) actual number of surgery cases

 6 years ago, he already over 1,000 cases.

4) Patients Practical Reviews

Patients posted a lot of reviews on the website recently, so I was able to refer to it a lot.

5)Consultation

I thought I'd do it roughly, but EU took a picture and made a dental mold first. It was the first time I had when I have a consultation.

 

 

Post OP Day

I think sitting cushion is really essential because I'm so busy waking up the anesthesia that I'm all the weight goes to my butt. I kept practicing drinking water even if my throat was sore, but I think I did a good job. In the early morning, my nose and throat were so stuffy that I couldn't breathe well, so I was very bothered by the nurse.

 

Post OP 1 Day

EU gave me new care from today, but I drank a lot of water because it was better to swallow water. In the morning, I got a swelling laser and surgeon gave me a suction on my nose w but I didn't like that feel. The overall condition seems to be a little better than yesterday, but in the evening, both my nose and mouth were blocked up, making it uncomfortable to breathe in the evening. The surgeon asked me to apply ice pack on my lips, so I'm focusing on that. As I was hospitalized here, cushion and humidifier are essential. I don't usually drink water, but I felt once again that I should drink well here.

I got laser treatment on nose, mouth disinfection and discharged from hospital. I felt like I was getting swollen more and more when I got home and my breathing was so uncomfortable. I said I used the cold pack often, but I got better that I want to took a nap. I think the biggest thing I felt today is apply ice pack on my face and drinking water. As night went by, the facial pressure bandage became more painful.

I visited hospital today for deswelling laser treatment. Also, my consultant told me that my face does not have swelling that much. Also, I can feel bit easier than yesterday. I felt hungry that I ate soup today and taste was good! When I eat some food I tend to gargle it.

I think facial pressure bandage make my life so difficult, with this it is so hard to breath! My nosebleed went back a lot and my ears could be blocked sometimes, but it was a bit hard for me to know after a while because of the pain. After walking around the hospital, the swelling goes down to a certain extent, but it gets harder to breathe because of the mask. I met my friend and she was amazed that it was the same as usual when I wear a mask.

When I looked in the mirror today, the bruises on my chin and neck disappeared. I don't know if my lips are still better or not, but I'm still okay when I sleep

The swelling is really getting a lot better even I see it. Even when I wake up in the morning, I'm not seriously swollen. I heard that if you take out the stitches the swelling will go down faster. I am worried because I heard that the stitches will hurt. Hahaha, I feel like only the right nostrils are back. Also, still my ear is bit uncomfortable since sometimes I can hear it not.

 

Post OP 14 Days

I visited hospital due to remove stitch. Especially when surgeon remove stitch from my upper jaw it was bit pain that my tear comes out. Except that everything was good! Finally, I can brush my teeth today! I really want to eat more food!

 

Post OP 19 Days

I have to talk a lot all week, so I think it's a practice to open my mouth! Thanks to this, I can put in 2 fingers inside of my mouth. Sometimes I can hear something and sometimes I cannot: It's really uncomfortable because if someone speak to me right side I cannot hear them well.

 

Post OP 30 Days

Finally, it has been a month already! People that me that I look so natural that it seems like I did not go through the surgery. But I look like a swellfish.

 

Post OP 34 Days

I eat very well that I feel like I am getting weight!

 

Post OP 46 Days

I can put 3~3and half fingers inside of my mouth!

 

Post OP 60 Days

Screw inside of my mouth was bothering me a lot and its also pain. I really want to remove it. But he told me that he cannot remove it right now but I just need to brush well and take care of gum area.

 

Post OP 63 Days

I visited dentist 3 days ago and pain get much better! I really want to eat thick pork belly!

 

Post OP 66 Days

I really wanted to eat chili shrimp so I ate mostly soft ones, and I was so happy. Other people who having braces treatment will lose weight but not for me. I really want to eat more food even though I have pain on my teeth! I will do invisalign treatment next week so I must need to practice jaw joint exercise!

My pronunciation gets better than when I wear wafer.

 

Post OP 81 Days

In fact, I didn't have any chin fat before surgery, but I was very concerned about it because it happened after the surgery. So recently, I take care of my jawline while drinking swollen tea. I think I've gotten a little better after stretching around my neck and shoulders.​

I visited the EU last week and now I'm starting to braces with a new Invisible Device instead of a wire. It was so hard to take it out, but it's still hard to adjust to new devices. It's alright to wear it, but it takes 10 minutes to take it out. It's hard to take it out, so I don't eat it often because this process is tough for me. Actually, I was wondering if it really worked because the Invisalign was clear at first, but when I first used the device, it hurts for a few days. When will I get used to it?

I am having trouble eating food these days because of knee treatment. Maybe that's why I think I'm losing weight. I should eat better, but I'm scared because of Corona, and I don't eat outside because of the time to take out my braces. Is it just me?

The doctor also looked at the place where my wisdom tooth was extracted. He said I have to wear a rubber band from now on. I thought I knew how to do it when I practiced, but I can't do it when I get home. I think it takes 30 minutes because I keep bouncing on my gums...I have to go to bed early because I have a lot of work to do.

The hole in the wisdom tooth extraction is also decreasing to a certain extent. Food gets stuck between the holes. Gargle is now a must everywhere. Choose carefully when choosing food because you don't want to get stuck between holes.

I'm so good at wearing rubber bands right now J I can just put it one without looking at it.

The swelling is continuously decreasing and the correction is going well. There's nothing uncomfortable about the surgery, and if there's anything uncomfortable about braces, it's like removing braces every time you eat something hot or drink? The response of EU staff, one of the important things I did when I first chose the hospital, is still satisfactory. Whenever I go, I always visit without any pressure because of the kindness of the staff:)

These days, I work without resting, so I live well without knowing that my teeth hurt. It is often used in the late stages, but wearing a new device requires two to three days of adaptation. It's a time when I feel like I'm doing braces, and I forget like when I did it on the 4th day.

 

Post OP 206 Days

Doctor told me that I have a space between each tooth because of my wisdom tooth removed. He said that food can get stuck easily, so you should take good care of it by using dental floss. I definitely feel like I'm losing more foreign substances :)

 

Post OP 211 Days

I think the advantage is that I go to dental clinic once every two months, which is difficult to visit often because of my job.​
