A Chinese girl has become the first person born without an upper jaw bone to have full successful reconstructive surgery, according to reports from China.

一名中国女孩儿成了上颌骨缺失的第一人。据来自中国的报道,她接受的骨骼再造手术获得了圆满成功。

Twenty-two year old Wang Na had the last in a four-year-long series operations in Xi'an, capital of the country's northern Shaanxi province, China Central Television reported.

据中国中央电视台报道,这名女孩叫王娜,今年22岁,已经在西安(中国陕西省省会)接受了长达四年的系列手术。

Surgeons at the city's Fourth Military Medical University's dental hospital fitted Wang with an entirely new row of teeth in an operation that took just 40 minutes.

第四军医大学口腔医院的外科医生为王娜镶了一排全新的牙齿,整个手术过程仅耗时40分钟。

Soon after surgery she was able to break and chew a biscuit relatively easily, something almost inconceivable before the operation.

在手术后不久,王娜就能较为轻松地咬碎并咀嚼饼干了。而这,在术前,是她难以想象的。

Wang Na was born with no upper jaw bone or teeth, making eating and speaking very difficult. Abandoned at birth, she was later adopted by her now parents, who spent years looking for a way to treat her rare condition.

王娜天生就没有上颌骨和牙齿,这使得她吃东西和讲话都很吃力。她出生后就被遗弃了,之后被一对夫妇所收养,并且这对夫妇又花了数年时间寻求治疗她这种罕见先天性缺陷的方法。

Her mother Li Jingyun was overjoyed: "I think that Wang Na is going to be a beauty in the future. I am really happy. I should be happy and shouldn't cry," she said.

她的养母欣喜若狂:“我想王娜将来会很美。我非常高兴。我不应该流泪,应该高兴才是。”

Wang must now undergo therapy to improve her speech, learn to chew properly and get used to other new functions of her face, the report said.

报道还说,王娜现在需要接受一套治疗方案来提高讲话能力,学习如何咀嚼,以及适应脸部的其他新的功能。
