Orthognathic surgery is a kind of maxillofacial plastic surgery. The operation is to adjust the position of the maxilla and mandible through osteotomy, and then reconstruct a harmonious, beautiful and stable occlusal relationship. But the operation has certain risks, so be careful. Some people relapse after two years of orthognathic surgery, and some people have sequelae after ten years of orthognathic surgery. How is this going on? I will elaborate here.

What is the difference between relapse and rebound in orthognathic surgery?
Recurrence of orthognathic surgery is a subjective phenomenon, which needs to be reduced reasonably
The recurrence of orthognathic surgery is the natural release of anatomical structure, which is an objective trend and inevitable. The degree and cause of recurrence are different for everyone.

Causes of recurrence
On the one hand, it is affected by the traction of muscles
On the one hand, it is affected by the stability of occlusal relationship
Generally speaking, relapse after orthognathic surgery is an objective fact that must be faced. Only in the face of recurrence can we effectively control the probability of recurrence. For example, going to a regular orthognathic hospital and finding a skilled doctor can reduce the probability of recurrence to a certain extent.

The rebound of orthognathic surgery is a subjective phenomenon, which can correctly avoid the probability
The rebound of orthognathic surgery is the subjective reason that can be avoided. Everyone rebounds for different reasons,

Common reasons for rebound are:
On the one hand, it is caused by operation failure or improper chewing method.
On the one hand, it is caused by external injury and other factors.
If the rebound is light, conservative treatment can be carried out to improve, but if the rebound is heavy, surgical repair must be carried out to solve the problem.

In addition, the sequelae after orthognathic surgery are also troublesome.
Some people have had orthognathic surgery for ten years. What are the sequelae?
If orthognathic surgery is properly performed, sequelae rarely occur, The common sequelae are lower tooth nerve injury, postoperative bleeding and swelling
The occurrence time of these sequelae varies according to individual circumstances. Some may be five years, some may be ten years, and some may be twenty years.

In short, this is not the key point, but how to avoid the recurrence, rebound and sequelae of orthognathic surgery.
It needs to be solved from the source, such as going to a qualified hospital and finding a doctor with good orthognathic skills, which can reduce the probability of these situations.
