The patient's head was fixed, and the surgeon placed two thumbs at the external oblique line of the mandible (outside the third molar), and the other fingers were under the mental tip. At the same time, the thumb was pressed downwards and forwards, while the other fingers were pressed upwards until the mandible was reset.

Self-reset:

First, wrap a small amount of bandage around your thumb, with your hands bent upward, palms facing yourself, wrists crossed, your thumb in your mouth, hold down the innermost teeth of your chin (as far as possible), and hold the front end of your chin with other fingers. At this point, the thumb is facing down, the other fingers are facing up, and at the same time, gently hold it out. Attention! ! ! There is no pain in this process. If there is pain, it may be swelling or other symptoms. Please go to the hospital immediately.

Prevention of dislocation:

Don't laugh, yawn, or munch on fruit, which may lead to wide mouth opening. Close your eyes when you open your mouth wide, or hold your chin with your hands to avoid dislocation of the mandible.

Sedatives or anesthetics are sometimes used during the reduction process to prevent unsuccessful reduction due to pain or tension.
