Jaw Implant - (Mandibular
Augmentation) |
|
Description |
|
This
procedure is designed to add prominence and balance to a person’s face
through enhancing an already-existent mandible structure. From silicone
to fat or bone grafting, jaw implants are made from either synthetic or
biological substances. Augmentation in this area will complement other
facial features as well as redefine a person’s jaw. |
|
Duration |
|
1 to 2
hours. |
|
Side
Effects |

Temporary
bruising, swelling, numbness. |
|
Recovery |

possible discomfort with smiling and talking during the first few weeks
following surgery. Talk to your plastic surgeon about dental and oral
hygiene during your recovery. Return to work: about 1 week. Avoid
strenuous activities: recommended for about 6 to 8 weeks. |
|

Possibility
of hematoma, seroma, numbness caused from nerve damage,

Technology |
|
Most
commonly for jaw augmentation, internal incisions are made directly
inside the mouth on either side of the lower lip. This convenient access
allows the doctor to create a pocket that will hold the implant, which
helps to avoid visible scarring. For an improved contour and more
defined jawline, the patient’s implant is placed directly on the
jawbone. Once the implant is set in the predetermined place, dissolvable
sutures are typically used to hold it in place and close the incisions. |
