Firstly, a doctor will have to reposition the jaw into place by using his/her thumbs. In few situations, surgery would then be proformed on the dislocated jaw and the jaw would have to be secured shut for a minimum of six weeks. In other cases surgery would not take place, although the dislocated jaw would still need to be bandaged.
