Orthognathic Surgery
Orthognathic surgery, also known as corrective jaw surgery, is performed to correct significant jaw and facial skeletal discrepancies that cannot be addressed with orthodontic treatment alone. These conditions may affect chewing, speaking, breathing, facial balance, and overall quality of life. The procedure repositions the jaws to create improved function and facial harmony.
Patients with severe overbites, underbites, open bites, facial asymmetry, or jaw growth irregularities may benefit from orthognathic surgery. Treatment is often carried out in coordination with orthodontic care to ensure precise alignment of the teeth and jaws. Comprehensive planning using advanced imaging technology allows for highly accurate surgical outcomes.
At Faces and Braces, orthognathic surgery is carefully planned to improve both function and aesthetics. Our multidisciplinary approach focuses on achieving balanced facial proportions, enhanced jaw function, and long-term stability. The result is often a significant improvement in confidence, comfort, and overall quality of life.
