Mentoplasty
Jaw surgery, also known as mentoplasty, is a suitable procedure for people who feel uncomfortable with the shape or size of their jaw. Because alongside many functional reasons, aesthetic aspects are increasingly playing a role in jaw correction. The jaw is a decisive factor for a harmonious facial appearance. It shapes the contour and has an undeniable dimension in forming the silhouette. For example, a smaller chin can make the nose appear larger, while a large chin can make the nose appear smaller.
The corrective jaw surgery in Istanbul offers procedures that include realignment, correction, and aesthetic enhancement of the jawbone and teeth. With the help of jaw correction, many symptoms that make life difficult can be alleviated. Problems with jaw closure are treated and converted into a normal bite. During the procedure, care is taken to ensure that the upper teeth slightly overlap the lower teeth and the tips of the molars fit into the grooves of the opposing molars. Because reducing wear on the teeth improves dental health, allowing patients to benefit from both an improved appearance through jaw surgery and medical benefits.

The Procedure for a Jaw Correction
A jaw surgery is performed at the Medicana International Hospital Zincirlikuyu in Istanbul as an outpatient procedure, allowing the patient to be discharged on the same day. The surgery is conducted under general anesthesia and can last 1 to 2 hours. There are two different incision areas for the procedure:
1. The incision is made at the natural crease under the chin, and the operation is performed from there.
2. The incision is performed inside the mouth, and the procedure for enlarging or reducing the jaw is done from there.
Once the necessary incisions are made, our surgeons begin to shift, cut, and alter the jawbone to achieve correct alignment within the target areas. To secure the new positioning of the jawbone, screws and bands are used during the jaw correction, which integrate into the jawbone over time. Depending on the patient's complaints, parts of the jawbone may be removed or the jaw tip moved forward or backward to change the shape and size of the jaw. If the jaw is too small, the surgeons at the Medicana International Hospital Zincirlikuyu in Istanbul enlarge it through fat injections, prosthetics, or by moving the jaw forward. The scar under the chin is located in a natural crease and if the incision is inside the mouth, no scar is visible from the outside.

How does the recovery phase proceed?
The patient is discharged on the same day after anesthesia. To reduce swelling and bruising in the area of the head and face, it is advisable to rest in a position with the head elevated for the first few days. Most patients can return to work within 3 to 5 days. During the recovery phase, they should refrain from strenuous physical activities for up to four weeks after the surgery.
The results of the surgery are already visible immediately after the procedure. Very small unnoticed swellings may still persist for a few months after the surgery. Final contour and scarring results will be visible within 6 months after the surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does healing take after jaw surgery in Turkey?
Complete healing occurs over a period of 12 months, with the first noticeable phase taking place in the first 6 weeks. In many cases, braces are applied within the first 6 weeks after surgery to achieve optimal realignment of the teeth.
What is the result of a jaw surgery in Turkey?
The results of the surgery, along with the possibly necessary orthodontic phase, lead to a lasting change in the appearance of the face. The symmetry is optimized and the structure of the face is harmonized. Chewing, breathing, and speaking will dramatically improve, enhancing the patient's life in many ways.
Which misalignments can still be corrected in adulthood?
Dental malocclusions can be orthodontically corrected in adults if the teeth and jawbones are healthy. However, this does not apply to jaw misalignments once growth is complete. Malocclusion situations can also be balanced out through tooth movements or, in severe cases, corrected with surgical measures.
Are there discreet treatment methods for adults?
Adults often have high demands regarding aesthetics, speaking, and chewing. Through a graceful appliance design, modern materials, and techniques, the Medibeauty Clinic meets these demands. This also applies to the materials used, such as tooth-colored brackets, aligners, or lingual techniques.
Can the teeth shift again after a completed treatment?
Unfortunately yes: Factors such as residual growth, harmful habits, or remaining malfunctions can cause teeth to shift again. The more pronounced the dental misalignments were at the start of treatment, the more likely the teeth are to return to their original position. However, retention devices or a fixed retainer can prevent this.
