The jaw joint is functionally different from other joints in that it makes multidimensional movements. The jaw joint works almost 24 hours without stopping. In addition to its main functions such as speaking, chewing and swallowing, there is continuous jaw movement, including sleep. Jaw joint diseases are caused by factors that prevent the harmonious functioning of these anatomical structures. These can be temporary or long-term.

Why is
Jaw surgery done?
Jaw Surgery is performed with the aim of eliminating facial deformities; It can be done to beautify the face aesthetically or as a result of an inconvenience. In case the chin distorts the face shape, chin surgeries can be performed to make the chin suitable for facial asymmetry or to correct the chin tip and face shape, that is, for aesthetic appearance.
Jaw pain, numbness, disorder of the teeth, and mouths with asymmetry can also put pressure on the jaw. Therefore, maxillofacial surgeries will generally achieve healthier results with the support of an orthodontist. Jaw surgeries are performed under general anesthesia. Since the subject is sensitive, these surgeries should generally be performed in a full-fledged hospital environment. Pain is minimized with painkillers and muscle relaxants given during the painful period after surgery. How Much Time Is Required to Heal After Jaw Surgery?
Depending on the defect of the jaw and the size of the surgery, the patient should rest for an average of 2 weeks.
