Частые вопросы

How long is recovery from jaw surgery?
Initial swelling subsides in 2-3 weeks. Return to work typically in 2-3 weeks for office jobs. Full bone healing takes 6-12 weeks. Final results visible after 6 months when all swelling resolves.
Will I have scars from orthognathic surgery?
Most incisions are made inside the mouth, leaving no visible external scars. Some procedures (like genioplasty) may have a small incision under the chin that heals very discretely.
Do I need braces before jaw surgery?
Usually yes. Pre-surgical orthodontics (9-18 months) aligns teeth to fit properly after jaw repositioning. Some cases can use "surgery-first" approach with post-op orthodontics only.
Is wisdom tooth removal always necessary?
Not always. Fully erupted, functional wisdom teeth with no disease can be kept. Removal is recommended for impaction, recurrent infection, decay, or orthodontic needs.
What is oral surgery China cost for wisdom teeth and jaw surgery?
Wisdom teeth removal China cost typically starts from $100 per tooth or about $400 for all four, even for impacted cases. Orthognathic jaw surgery in China usually starts from $5,000-$8,000 including hospital stay and imaging, compared with $25,000-$35,000+ in the US/UK.
