Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my mandibular joint painful after jaw and chin surgery?
During the procedures the masticatory muscles (that help to open and close your mouth) are undermined, detached or even cut, so they are now at the beginning of their healing process.
It is common to feel a blocking sensation during some weeks because of the swelling in the articulations.
If you still suffer this lock within two months, please, let us know and we will evaluate. Try to
gently massage the area in order to relax the muscles.
