Tan, who is in her second year of college, has appearance anxiety, she has heard others say that tooth extraction is comparable to plastic surgery, and recently she found a doctor to achieve the goal of slimming her face by removing wisdom teeth. However, the doctor told her that wisdom teeth extraction could not slim down the face, which made Tan very disappointed.
Why is that? Tan's face was full of confusion. The doctor explained to her: "The shape of the face is mainly supported by the jaws, especially the mandibles.
The size of the mandibular angle of the mandible affects the shape of our face. The average jaw angle of a normal person is 120 degrees, if the jaw angle is relatively small, close to 90 degrees, the face shape will be similar to the "national character face", boys will look more handsome, girls are not very suitable; If the jaw angle is large, the face will look slender and more beautiful.
The current face slimming surgery is actually mandibular angle reshaping, which grinds off the excess part of the jaw angle and grinds the jaw angle to 120 degrees, and the arc is more natural and will look more beautiful.
Wisdom teeth grow in the mandible, which erupts after the development of the jaw bone is completed or near the completion of development, and whether it is removed or not has no effect on the angle of the mandibular angle, so it is not necessary to remove wisdom teeth because of face slimming.
In fact, the reason why many people feel that their faces have become thinner after tooth extraction is often because they can't eat for a few days after tooth extraction, and can only eat some liquid food, eat less, and become thinner. ”
After listening to the doctor's words, Tan relieved the confusion in her heart, and she realized that if she wants to change her appearance, it is not as simple as just removing wisdom teeth. The doctor also told her that if she wants to slim her face, she can also use medical aesthetic injections (botulinum toxin) and other methods, but this requires going to a regular medical unit and opening a major in medical cosmetology.
Filled with joy, Tan thanked the doctor again and again, and went home happily.
