Jaw Surgery

Surgical orthodontics are used to correct gross discrepancies between the jaws in non growing children and adults.  After preparing the dentition with orthodontics an Oral and Maxilofacial Surgeon can surgically alter the size and position of the jaws to bring harmony to the whole face, and improve the bite.

Capabilities

• Can correct large overbites and underbites
• Can surgically close Anterior Open Bites (when the upper and lower front teeth can't touch)
• Can harmonize facial proportions and improve esthetics
