WHAT IS SURGICAL ORTHODONTICS?

• Sometimes your facial growth and development do not proceed in a normal and harmonious manner.​

​

• When this happens, your jaws are not in an anatomically correct position, having a negative effect on your bite, facial symmetry and balance.

​

• It can even make eating, speaking, and normal breathing more difficult.

​

• Sometimes Orthodontic treatment alone is insufficient to address all the issues caused by improper or disproportionate jaws.

​

• Orthognathic surgery, more commonly known as corrective jaw surgery, is sometimes necessary to help address these skeletal and dental irregularities.
