Teeth friends who have serious bony overbearing/anti jaw, protruding mouth/buckteeth, partial jaw, etc. should all know this. Generally speaking, orthodontics with braces alone cannot achieve the desired effect, and joint orthodontic treatment is needed. Therefore, there are some differences between domestic orthodontic surgery and Korean orthodontic surgery. Today, let's talk about why Korean orthodontic surgery does not require preoperative orthodontics.

Let's talk first~~Why does orthognathic surgery in Korea not require preoperative orthodontics:

The orthognathic surgery in South Korea, also known as double jaw surgery, MM's bony protruding mouth, partial jaw, and ground covering the sky, generally there is no wisdom tooth and no tooth extraction~~So, Korean doctors' orthognathic surgery can adjust the teeth and jaw bones to appropriate positions, and then conduct orthodontic treatment after further study.

Therefore, orthognathic surgery in South Korea can not only save 6-12 months of preoperative orthodontic time, but also avoid normal teeth occlusion in the early orthodontic alignment before surgery, which is abnormal again due to maxillofacial adjustment.

See the difference between domestic orthognathic and Korean orthognathic/bimaxillary:

Domestic orthognathic surgery is also called combined orthodontic and orthognathic treatment: preoperative orthodontics → orthognathic surgery → postoperative correction

The traditional combined orthodontic and jaw surgery in China is usually to wear braces for orthodontic treatment and expel misplaced teeth (about 6-12 months before orthodontic surgery); Then, 1-3 months after orthognathic surgery, wear braces to start fine adjustment.

Korean orthognathic/bimaxillary surgery: orthognathic surgery: → fine adjustment with fixed orthotics after surgery

South Korea has an early origin of double Hubei surgery. Doctors have rich experience in surgery and are famous around the world. Many foreign customers come to South Korea for orthognathic surgery~~Considering the long time of preoperative orthodontics, doctors upgraded the traditional orthognathic technology, saved the steps of wearing braces before surgery, and greatly shortened the treatment time. Of course, the surgical effect is more amazing than ordinary orthognathic.

In South Korea, orthognathic surgery not only does not require preoperative orthodontics, but also can make the chin more VLINE while performing bilateral jaw surgery. Therefore, the orthognathic surgery in South Korea is called the cosmetic bilateral jaw surgery.
