Surgical Orthodontics
Surgical orthodontics (orthognathic surgery) corrects severe jaw misalignments that cannot be treated by braces alone. It combines orthodontic treatment with jaw surgery for improved bite and facial symmetry.
Benefits
- Corrects functional and aesthetic jaw issues
- Improves speech, chewing, and breathing
- Enhances facial harmony
- Long-term solution for severe skeletal discrepancies
Procedure
The process includes pre-surgical orthodontics, jaw surgery under general anesthesia, and post-surgical braces for final adjustments. The recovery period typically lasts a few weeks.
Recovery and Follow-Up
Recovery from surgical orthodontics (like jaw surgery) typically involves swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort for 1–2 weeks, with full healing taking several months. Stick to a soft or liquid diet, use cold compresses, keep your head elevated, and follow all hygiene and medication instructions. Follow-up visits are usually weekly for the first month to monitor healing, adjust elastics or appliances, and fine-tune your bite.
