Surgical Orthodontics
Correcting Complex Orthodontic Issues with Precision and Expertise
At Broadbent Orthodontics, we understand that some orthodontic cases require more than just braces or aligners to achieve the desired results. That's where Surgical Orthodontics, also known as orthognathic surgery, comes into play. Surgical Orthodontics is a specialized procedure that involves collaboration between our experienced orthodontists and oral and maxillofacial surgeons to address complex jaw misalignments and facial imbalances.
The Surgical Orthodontics Experience
Surgical Orthodontics is typically recommended for patients with severe jaw discrepancies that cannot be fully corrected through traditional orthodontic treatments alone. These jaw irregularities can cause functional issues such as difficulty chewing, speaking, and breathing, as well as cosmetic concerns related to facial proportions.
Our skilled team at Broadbent Orthodontics will first conduct a thorough evaluation of your dental and facial structure. Using advanced imaging technology, we will assess your jaw alignment and determine the most appropriate treatment plan. In collaboration with our trusted oral and maxillofacial surgeons, we will design a surgical approach tailored to your specific needs, ensuring optimal results and improved facial aesthetics.
The Surgical Process
During the surgical procedure, the oral and maxillofacial surgeon will carefully reposition the jawbones to achieve a more harmonious and functional bite. Following the surgery, you will undergo a period of recovery, during which the jaw will heal and stabilize. After this healing phase, you will continue with orthodontic treatment to fine-tune the positioning of your teeth and ensure they fit seamlessly with your newly aligned jaw.
