진료과목	Double-jaw surgery
Hello, I had been struggling with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder and finally underwent double jaw surgery and two types of contouring (square jaw and chin) at Why Oral Surgery Clinic. It has now been three months since my surgery Throughout my school years, I received physical therapy for my jaw due to TMJ disorder, but I never imagined it would develop into an lantern jaw. However, after passing through my growth phase, my jaw developed into an lantern jaw, causing significant discomfort. I even had to visit the emergency room to adjust my dislocated jaw and experienced digestive issues, but I dismissed these as minor inconveniences until I ultimately decided to have double jaw surgery. Now, I am able to eat and perform almost all daily activities without issues. Although I lost about 16 kilograms due to the inability to eat, sleep, or exercise, I am slowly gaining weight again. I used to face many inconveniences, such as needing to order food separately during company gatherings, but now I can enjoy delicious meals with everyone and feel happy every day. To summarize, after three months post-surgery, here are the benefits: TMJ Relief: I never experienced a proper yawn since becoming an adult due to my poor TMJ. I once ended up in the emergency room because my jaw dislocated while yawning. Now, I can yawn freely. Although it is often said that double jaw surgery has minimal impact on TMJ, I personally experienced significant relief. This is probably the most comfortable change for me. 2. Daily Life Comfort: Unless I experience direct trauma to my jaw, I can now go about my daily life without worry or excessive caution. 3. Positive Appearance: Friends I haven't seen in a while have complimented me, saying my appearance has improved and I made the right decision. While looking good is important, it's the lasting impression that counts. I am very satisfied with the aesthetic results as well. Remaining Inconveniences: Braces Discomfort: Eating is still inconvenient due to my braces. Food tends to get stuck in my mouth, making me constantly conscious while eating. As a result, it's difficult for me to gain weight, though this might be an advantage for those looking to diet. 2. Mouth Ulcers: The braces cause frequent mouth ulcers. Having never had braces before, I found the ulcers particularly painful, making eating and sometimes even facial expressions uncomfortable. However, taking additional Vitamin C and Vitamin B has greatly improved this issue. 3. Speech Issues: My speech is still not perfect. Even before the surgery, my oral structure affected my pronunciation, and now the braces make my speech feel awkward. However, it's better than before. These are the pros and cons I have experienced so far. The cons are more like minor inconveniences, while the pros are significantly greater. I feel like I made the right decision in opting for the surgery. Although it wasn't a short journey, considering I have many years ahead of me, the decision to undergo surgery wasn't easy. But the benefits outweigh the inconveniences, and I believe I endured it well thanks to the excellent clinic and the surgeon. I hope this helps, and I wish you all a speedy recovery so you can return to a happy daily life by the three-month mark! If you want to see my past review, please click here!

Throughout my school years, I received physical therapy for my jaw due to TMJ disorder, but I never imagined it would develop into an lantern jaw. However, after passing through my growth phase, my jaw developed into an lantern jaw, causing significant discomfort. I even had to visit the emergency room to adjust my dislocated jaw and experienced digestive issues, but I dismissed these as minor inconveniences until I ultimately decided to have double jaw surgery.
