Disorders in the jaw bones can be treated with various oral and non-oral devices in childhood and adolescence.

In cases where the upper jaw is in front, it is treated with head-gear. These devices should be used all day, if possible, and in the evening, if not possible, at least 12 hours. An apparatus called a monoblock is provided from the inside of the mouth to bring the lower jaw forward.
In children with continued growth and development, these orthopedic devices can give effective results.In adult individuals whose growth has been completed, the jaws can be restored to their normal position by orthognathic surgery. These surgical procedures can be performed on one jaw or both jaws.In cases where the tip of the jaw is dimmed, the tip of the jaw can be made more prominent with a genioplasty surgical operation in Turkey.
