Regret the operation of mandibular fracture.

Fractures are common, but mandibular fractures are rare. The mandible is on the face and the only bone that can move on the face. If you don't pay attention to walking at ordinary times, you will face the ground when wrestling, which will easily lead to mandibular fracture. This kind of fracture is very painful and should be treated in time. The treatment is usually surgery. A friend said he regretted having a mandibular fracture operation. What are the reasons for regret?

Mandibular fracture surgery is to fix the moving or dislocated bones with steel nails or steel plates to promote bone healing.

Regret doing mandibular fracture surgery because there are sequelae after the operation:

1, the lower lip is numb, because when doing surgical reduction, you need to pull hard, which may lead to local tissue damage, such as damage to the inferior alveolar nerve, which will occur.

2, surgical scars, if the patient itself is a scar constitution, the incision of this operation is prone to local hyperplasia, affecting the appearance.

3, rejection, the bone material needed for mandibular fracture surgery is generally pure titanium products, if the patient's own physical allergies, rejection may occur.

4, occlusal disorder, if the masticatory muscles are affected during the operation, there will be occlusal disorder after the operation, and the chewing function will be affected.

Attention should be paid to these after mandibular fracture surgery:

1, postoperative diet should strengthen nutrition, eat more calcium-containing foods, such as milk, ribs and so on. , can promote bone healing, proper sun exposure can promote the body's absorption of calcium.

2. Pay attention to oral hygiene, conduct mouth opening training under the guidance of a doctor as soon as possible, and review it three months after operation.
