We offer effective treatment options for individuals with a wide jaw, enhancing facial balance and symmetry.
Condition
Wide Jaw
Overview
A wide jaw, often characterised by excessive width in the lower face, occurs when the jawbone is larger than typical proportions.
This condition can be genetic, with some individuals inheriting wider jaw structures from their parents.
Hormonal changes, especially during puberty, can also contribute to jaw growth. Additionally, muscle hypertrophy (enlarged masseter muscles) from factors such as teeth grinding or excessive chewing can create the appearance of a wider jaw. Other causes include misalignment of the bite, where an imbalance in jaw development can lead to disproportionate growth.
In some cases, conditions like temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders can exacerbate the issue, affecting both the function and aesthetics of the jaw. Identifying the underlying cause is crucial to understanding this condition.
A wide jaw can create facial imbalances, leading to self-consciousness about appearance.
The disproportionate structure may affect confidence, causing individuals to feel insecure about their overall facial symmetry, particularly in social or professional settings.
At New Ash Green Dental & Aesthetics, we offer tailored solutions for a wide jaw, focusing on enhancing facial symmetry. For cases involving muscle hypertrophy, we inject a neurotoxin directly into overactive masseter muscles to relax contractions, present overuse, and gradually reduce jaw width.
Our skilled team creates a treatment plan suited to your unique facial structure, delivering natural results. We prioritise comfort, safety, and precision in every procedure, ensuring a more balanced, harmonious appearance and boosting patient confidence with each visit.
