Q: Dr. Eppley, Does masseter muscle dehiscence resolve itself if the jaw implants are removed or does the masseter still need to be surgically reattached? Thanks.
A: Masseter muscle dehiscence/retraction will not resolve itself by implant removal altbough its aprpearance may become less.
There is no consistently effective method for masseter muscle dehiscence repair.
