Corrective jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery) corrects and treats abnormalities in the facial bones, especially the jaws and teeth. Often these abnormalities cause difficulties with chewing, speaking, sleeping and other routine activities. Orthognathic surgery, along with orthodontic treatment, corrects these problems and improves the appearance of the facial profile.
Using the latest digital imaging technology, we are able to demonstrate the functional and aesthetic benefits of orthognathic surgery. Computer-aided treatment planning minimizes treatment times, recovery times and the effects of your surgery. Materials such as titanium plates and miniature screws provide continuity, durability and predictability to your treatment. These advances in technology, methods, and devices shorten the postoperative recovery period, thus allowing patients to return to their normal lives shortly after surgery. If orthodontic treatment can correct the problem, orthognathic surgery may not be necessary. Thanks to the latest advances in orthodontics, it is often not necessary. It should be determined whether orthognathic surgery is the right treatment option for you.
