Always feeling tired even after sleeping enough... Breathing problem in sleep?

 Always feeling tired even after sleeping enough... Breathing problem in sleep?

Sleeping is closely related to human health as people say ‘sleeping is a remedy’. 

However, it is important to sleep healthy than just sleeping. 

Many of expertise say “The importance of deep sleep is getting more significant 

to relieve stress and strengthen immune systems 

since modern people tend to miss the timing to release their stress.

Dr. Chang Hyun Oh from BANOBAGI Plastic Surgery Hospital said 

“Even though sleeping well and enough is important, a person still may not feel refreshed after sleeping well due to sleep apnea and severe snoring caused by misaligned jaws. 

Then, a treatment to correct the back-warded jaw for respiratory tract expansion is needed.”

★ Healthy sleep is decided by proper breathe.

7~8 hours is recommended sleeping hours which doesn’t affect daily activities. 

However, the number of people who cannot fall asleep well 

due to working overtime and stress are getting increased. 

Health Insurance Review and Evaluation Center indicated that the number of patient 

who were diagnosed as sleeping disorder was 510,000 in 2017 

which was 13% increased number than in 2015.

Sleeping disorder is a sleeping related disorder that makes it difficult for someone 

to have healthy sleep. The quality of sleep is closely related with proper breathing. 

Securing the respiratory tract is significant to breathe right.

However, it causes breathing disorder if a chin is receded. 

It is because of respiratory tract cannot be secured due to misaligned teeth. 

When the respiratory tract is narrowed, 

it causes sleep apnea and mouth breathing instead of nose breathing.

A sleep apnea means when it continues more than 10 seconds without breathing in sleep. 

If this continues, it may cause shortage of oxygen supply. 

A sleep apnea needs to be treated in an early stage due to its side effects 

such as rhinitis and bronchitis which lower the quality of life.

★ Mouth breathing causes facial asymmetry.

Sleeping disorder causes not only side effects but also busy brain and hypomnesia 

which bother daily activities. It is recommended to correct the misaligned teeth 

due to recede chin to properly breathe.

Also, mouth breathing may become a habit when someone keeps having difficulty 

to breathe through nose due to the narrow respiratory tract. 

A two jaw surgery needs to be considered to move the recede chin forward 

for it to function properly.

It is not the only problem coming along with mouth breathing. 

It can even lead to facial asymmetry due to the impact of muscles around the mouth

including tongue when it gets worse. It modifies its shape when mouth keeps being open 

for a long time because face may lean to one side.

It can affect digesting and chewing functions 

when the jaw is bent out of shape and also self-confidence 

because the person cannot give a positive impression in interpersonal relationship. 

So, two jaw surgery is focused on functional recovery with aesthetic effect.

Jiho’s Plastic Surgery Real Review (Two Jaw + Rhinoplasty)

Jiho’s Plastic Surgery Real Review

(Two Jaw + Rhinoplasty)

Before the surgery

I was normal just like other when I was young. But I started to use one side when I eat, and it became a habit and caused this severe asymmetry as I grow.

The stress due to this asymmetric face was so much that I couldn’t face others and do eye contacts with them for communication.

I hated taking photos, too.

I also had malocclusion.

Teeth condition before the surgery

Orthodontic treatment itself cannot cure the malocclusion, so I was suggested for two jaw surgery to correct malocclusion and also enhance the asymmetry and reduce the long face.

Due to asymmetric teethe and face, malocclusion caused sound whenever I made a movement of jaw such as eating or yawning. And these were so irritating.

The consultant was so kind, and the director surgeon Dr,Oh explained accurately depending on my condition by observing X-rays and CT scans which made me trustworthy.

 On the day of discharge after two jaw surgery

Rather than being nervous before the surgery, I was more excited the night before the surgery. The nurse explained everything before the surgery so I do not get panic, and care for me so I was relieved.

The anesthesiologist came and talked to me for few seconds and,, 

I woke up, the surgery was done.

I was not supposed to sleep for 4 hours when I wake up from anesthesia, 

but it was sooooo sleepy.

 I also could breathe with my mouth only, which was very difficult. 

I couldn’t talk, and had so much phlegm which made nurse work so much. 

I felt sorry for them, but also thanked them for taking care of me. 

And during your stay in the clinic, for 2 night and 3 days, I suggest you to take walks in the hallways. Taking a walk is good for blood circulation and swelling subsidence.

On the last day of surgery, I went to get medicine with prescription and came back home. Do not forget to take medicine !! 

2 weeks ~ 1 month after Two Jaw surgery

There was no pain, but for about 2-3 weeks, it was really hard time for me because I couldn’t eat what I want. I could only eat soups and drinks and lost 8 kilograms. I tried hard for swelling subsidence I ate pumpkin soup which is good for swelling, with pumpkin juice, and even took a walk 3 times a day!

Anti-swelling I got it done when I last visited the clinic was very helpful, too.

Sit and sleep is very helpful for swelling subsidence, but I tried for 3 days, and gave up.. rather than sit and sleep, put 2-3 pillows to have face on the upper side than your heart for prompt swelling subsidence.

As time passes, I could eat soft cakes and egg soups. 

I couldn’t eat well for almost 1 month, 

and when I was finally able to chew food, I had meal all day long.

After this one month after surgery, 

there is no problem doing everyday activity and eat more and more.

I took medicine for anti-infection for 3weeks until stitch removal inside my mouth, 

and started wearing braces 2 months after the two jaw surgery

2 months – 6 months after the surgery

Orthodontic treatment is not easy, too you know. 

Tying the rubber and eating food,,, 

I got used to it later. And you MUST practice mouth moving after surgery!

I made a sound to say A E I O U whenever I can. 

With mouth practice, the muscle and bone of mouth area will be settled more smoothly.  

I still had swelling after 1 month, the minor swellings. 

But I could see the change after 2-3 months after the surgery.

My mouth was very awkward at first that I thought it was one of the side effect of two jaw surgery. But it is more natural now, so don’t worry~~ 

 It’s been almost 1 year after surgery and all the minor swelling is gone now, 

but I still have a bit of stinging feeling once in a while in chin area.

People around me tells me that my face went back to the face when I was a child ^^

I am very satisfied with the result.

I wrote this diary even if I’m not good at writing to encourage people who are still considering about the surgery.

And whoever worries about the swelling, the time will heal everything. 

It takes time to see the actual result of the surgery, so please be patient~~ 

Two Jaw surgery is not a simple surgery and it is one of the major surgeries in plasty. 

I also considered for thousand times before deciding to get the surgery done, 

but here I am now and I hope this diary will help others making decision.

 Before the surgery

Thank you Banobagi for giving me an opportunity and caring surgeon and staff!!
