A member asked:

3 months post op sliding genioplasty, wiped toothpaste from below lip but accidentally wiped the chin really hard could i have moved it back?

Genioplasty: Highly unlikely that one incident moved anything, especially 3 mos post treatment. If it failed to heal in the first place you would have likely known due to pain ,swelling etc... If still concerned, contact surgeon who performed.

No: That said, if your even the least bit concerned call your Oral Surgeon and schedule a look-see.
