Short chin Surgery
It is a condition where the lower jaw is smaller than normal, or the lower jaw is retreating backward, which is seen as short.
If the lower jaw is small or retreated, the chin can be improved by extending through prosthesis such as silicon or cortex at the tip of the chin.
If a fundamental solution is needed, the chin tip can be cut and moved forward.
In addition, if the diagnosis is not just a problem with the lower jaw, such as malocclusion, the upper jaw should be checked and corrected, and the position shifted.
- From the front, the chin is shorter than the forehead or nose.
- The lower jaw is behind.
- Gums are exposed when you laugh and hard to close mouth.
- When you look at the side, it falls in a diagonal line from the bottom of your lips to the tip of your chin.

Short chin surgery guide
Short Chin surgery should be treated with protrusion surgery and orthodontics when skeletal protrusions of gums and teeth are accompanied. If the teeth do not fit well and the jaw is excessively less developed, you can be improved through double jaw surgery or lower jaw surgery. In addition, surgery plans require cooperation of oral surgery and correctional departments.
