Singer Shin Ji directly addressed the misunderstanding that she had undergone jaw surgery.

On the 19th, a video titled "The story you've been curious about, now I'll share it" was released on the YouTube channel 'How Are You, Shin Ji?!?'

That day, Shin Ji stated, "While taking a short break from YouTube, I decided to restart my dental treatment. Some people have misunderstood that I had jaw surgery due to temporomandibular joint issues or dental treatments, and I want to clear up their curiosity."

Shin Ji explained that she previously underwent treatment to adjust the height of her lower molars to prevent her jaw from receding backward. She said, "I slightly raised my lower molars to prevent my jaw from moving backward. During the treatment, I couldn't chew food properly, so I also had to lengthen my teeth a bit."

However, she mentioned that while engaging in broadcasting activities, she began receiving comments about her tooth appearance. Shin Ji revealed, "Many people said it didn't look good, so I gradually filed down both my upper and lower teeth. As a result, my molars remained high, but my lower teeth became shorter. With my jaw appearing wider and my mouth shape looking uncomfortable when closed, even I started wondering, 'Why does my mouth look like this?'"

Consequently, she decided to remove the existing prosthetics and undergo treatment to realign her dental occlusion. Shin Ji explained, "I lowered my molars slightly and removed both upper and lower teeth to create new ones."

The doctor responsible for Shin Ji's treatment also directly explained her condition. The doctor stated, "Initially, she visited the hospital due to poor temporomandibular joint function. Upon examination, it was found that she had a unique oral structure called 'open bite,' where her teeth do not properly align as they should in most people."

The doctor continued, "As a singer, I thought it must have been difficult for her to sing with this oral structure. Therefore, we performed treatment by attaching prosthetics to the occlusal surfaces without removing much tooth structure, effectively lifting her dental arch."

Notably, Shin Ji's facial shape appeared significantly different, leading to rumors that she had undergone jaw surgery. The doctor remarked, "It seems many people feel her facial shape has changed greatly. I'm slightly proud that they think a simple technique was used for jaw surgery. Additionally, she lost a lot of weight during this period, which likely contributed to the perceived change," he added with a smile.
