Orthodontic surgery

We provide advanced orthodontic surgery options to correct severe dental and skeletal discrepancies that cannot be addressed by braces alone. Our clinic is dedicated to enhancing oral functionality and facial aesthetics through state-of-the-art surgical interventions.

Understanding Orthodontic Surgery

Orthodontic surgery, also known as orthognathic surgery, involves correcting irregularities of the jaw bones and realigning the jaws and teeth to improve the way they work. These procedures not only improve your ability to chew, speak, and breathe, but also enhance your appearance by correcting misaligned jaws.

Common Reasons for Orthodontic Surgery:

Severe Malocclusion: Incorrect alignment of teeth and jaws causing difficulty in chewing and speaking.
Facial Asymmetry: Imbalances in jaw positions that affect the facial profile.
Chronic Jaw Pain and TMJ Issues: Structural problems in the jaw that contribute to pain and functional limitations.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Correction of jaw positioning to improve airway passage and reduce sleep apnea symptoms.

Our Orthodontic Surgery Procedures:

Corrective Jaw Surgery: Realigns the jaws to improve the form and function of your teeth.
Surgical Teeth Straightening: Used in conjunction with braces or other orthodontic appliances to correct severe misalignments.
Genioplasty (Chin Surgery): Adjusts the shape or position of the chin to complement overall facial symmetry.

The Process:

Detailed Assessment: Thorough examination and imaging to determine the specific needs and the best surgical approach.
Pre-Surgical Orthodontics: Often, braces or other devices are applied to move teeth into a new position before surgery.
Surgical Procedure: Performed under general anesthesia, focusing on precision and safety to achieve the desired outcomes.
Post-Surgical Care: Detailed guidance on recovery and coordination with orthodontists for postoperative adjustment of orthodontic appliances.
