Orthognathic surgery is a corrective surgical procedure aimed at realigning the jaws and teeth to improve function and appearance. It addresses issues such as jaw misalignment, bite problems, and facial asymmetry. Typically performed by oral and maxillofacial surgeons, this surgery can enhance both the patient’s bite and facial aesthetics. It is often recommended when orthodontic treatments alone cannot resolve the issue. The procedure may be required for patients with congenital conditions or traumatic injuries.

Benefits of Orthognathic Surgery
Orthognathic surgery can correct bite issues, such as overbites, underbites, or crossbites, improving overall jaw function and making it easier to chew, speak, and breathe.
By repositioning the jaw, orthognathic surgery can improve facial symmetry, balance, and overall appearance, helping to create a more harmonious profile.
This surgery can alleviate chronic pain and discomfort caused by jaw misalignment, such as TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders, jaw clenching, headaches, or neck and back pain.
For individuals with jaw or airway obstructions, orthognathic surgery can open up the airways, improving breathing, particularly for those with sleep apnea or breathing difficulties.
The improvements from orthognathic surgery are permanent, providing long-term benefits in both functionality and aesthetics, which can enhance the patient’s quality of life for years to come.
