The lower jaws are in front and the upper jaws were behind and the only egg twins, Gökçe Demir (20) and his sister Tuğçe Demir (20), who had difficulty in dinner and speaking, had been fighting the problem of jaw disorder for a long time. In the treatment process that started in the state hospital operation The proposed twins were unstable because of their fears. However, Medipol Mega University Hospital Oral, Dental and Jene Surgery Specialist. Lecturer. Member Abdullah Özel and Dr. Lecturer. Gamze Şenol Kılıç, a member of Digital Planning and Artificial Intelligence Supported Surgical Methods and encouraged Gökçe, had the first surgery and had a almost painless recovery period. Thus, the young girl, who survived all her troubles about being ahead of her lower jaw, has now become able to smile with self -confidence and be fed comfortably. Seeing this fast and successful recovery of his sister Tuğçe is preparing for surgery by choosing the same method. This process, which radically changes the brothers’ lives, aims to improve the closing of tooth and to solve joint problems.
“I was having both eating and speaking problems”
Gökçe Demir stated that he had difficulties before the surgery and that there are problems of chewing and biting, saying that they should not be afraid of those who will be surgery; “I started my dental treatment 2 years ago. My lower jaw was ahead; That’s why I was having both eating and speaking problems. I had surgery 4 months ago. I don’t have any eating problems right now, and my jaw pains have passed. I’ve been complaining about my chin since I started high school; My lower jaw problem was lowering my self -confidence.
Two years ago, after graduating from high school, I told my mother about my situation. My mother took me and we started my toothy treatment. I had surgery after this treatment. I had difficulties, but I couldn’t chew and bite. I am very comfortable right now, I have no problems left. I had surgery at Gamze Hoca and Abdullah Hoca at Medipol Mega University Hospital. My process was very comfortable; I had no pain after surgery. I just pulled a little hunger for the first 3-4 days, and it was very easy to get over. I suggest that they will have surgery: absolutely don’t be afraid, the process is very comfortable and you hardly experience any pain. ” he said.
“I visited many doctors, they all said the same thing”
Tuğçe Demir stated that he was more encouraged with his sister’s surgery and said, “I started dental treatment 2 years ago. When I was too young, I would always go to the hospital; To make my bruises and fillings. At that time I was told that I had a jaw problem. When I went to the State Hospital, they said that I should have surgery. Many doctors have visited and they all said the same thing: ‘The jaw will grow, which will create a greater health problem.’ Two years ago I completed the discomfort in my teeth, then the braces were attached and I waited for surgery. My brother Gökçe also had the braces two years ago. His lower jaw was ahead, his upper jaw was behind. About 4 months ago, dental treatment was over, ready for surgery and had surgery. I had problems in eating too; My head was very hurting, my migraine was holding. I had difficulty chewing the food, and I had difficulty in speaking in my social life. ” he said.
“Actually the easiest part of the surgery”
Stating that patients can foresee the image to be obtained before the surgery thanks to artificial intelligence tools and 3D applications. Dr. Lecturer. Member Abdullah Özel said, “This case was a surprise for us; Because we first saw Gökçe, then Tuğçe came with his mother. Which one was, we confused it at first, because they didn’t say they were twins. We examined Gökçe and gave the necessary information. Tuğçe was a little timid about it, he was a little scared and first wanted to see the surgery result of his sister. He did not initially stated that he had a request for surgery. We made Gökçe’s classic digital planning and completed the psychological preparation stages for surgery. Then we told the family to plan. In this process, Tuğçe was encouraged and decided to have this surgery, which he had never thought of before. Nevertheless, he wanted to witness his sister’s surgery. Then we successfully carried out Gökçe’s operation.
We have received all 3 -dimensional records; We completely transferred the real -life image to the computer and created a virtual patient model. On this model, we detected anomaly with the computer’s artificial intelligence tools and 3D applications. We evaluated how to bring the jaw to the position. In the last stage, we made the final planning by adding our own clinical experience. The patient was also very pleased with the result; Because he was able to predict the image he would obtain before surgery. In fact, the easiest part of the surgery is because we know where to reach the patient and we are preparing psychologically well. Everyone has fears when it comes to surgery. Small pain and edema can be seen for a short time; We apply all surgical strategies to minimize them. ” He said.
“Double jaw surgery rests not only aesthetics, but also basic functions”
Double jaw operations thanks to the recycling of patients to the society said Uzm. Dr. Lecturer. Member Gamze Şenol Kılıç, “Gökçe and Tuğçe, 2 years ago, the lower jaws in the front, the upper jaws are not developed sufficiently and applied to us with the complaint. Since they were twins, their face and jaw deformities were almost the same. We completed Gökçe’s surgery 4 months ago; We did a double jaw operation. In other words, we took the upper jaw forward, pulled the lower jaw back and applied the jaw tip aesthetics that we call ‘geneoplasty’ to get the excess bone tissue at the jaw end. Currently, Gökçe’s healing process is very good.
Now it’s time in Tuğçe. He will pass the same stages. One of the biggest problems in patients with such deformities is especially airline problems. Although the surgeries seem to be an aesthetic correction from outside, we actually repair the basic functions. If the lower and upper teeth are not touching each other, the difficulty of chewing is experienced; We fix this. We also eliminate the psychological problems of patients in social life; In a way, we re -earn the society. Moreover, the incompatibility of the lower and upper jaws leads to joint problems. Sometimes patients are not aware of their actual condition and apply for joint complaints. With these surgeries, we eliminate those problems. ” He said.
