Orthognathic Jaw Surgery

Orthognathic jaw surgery and surgical orthodontics treatment are designed to correct jaw discrepancies that braces alone cannot fix. These advanced treatments improve facial balance, bite function and long-term oral health. For milder cases, camouflage orthodontic treatment can align the teeth to mask jaw issues without surgery.

  1. Surgical Orthodontics Advanced treatment solutions combining orthodontics and jaw surgery to achieve optimal facial harmony, function, and your best smile.

  2. Understanding Surgical Orthodontics What Is It? The Benefits Surgical orthodontics, also known as orthognathic surgery, is a comprehensive treatment approach for severe jaw discrepancies that cannot be corrected with braces alone. This multidisciplinary approach creates life-changing improvements: • Enhanced facial balance and profile • Improved ability to chew and speak This combined treatment addresses conditions like severe underbites, where the mismatch between upper and lower jaws significantly affects your bite, facial profile, and daily function. • Better breathing function • Optimal tooth positioning and alignment • Increased confidence and quality of life

  3. Your Expert Care Team Specialist Orthodontists Maxillofacial Surgeon Dr Jonathan Skilton and Dr Jason Yap lead your orthodontic care, carefully aligning and repositioning your teeth throughout the treatment journey. A skilled surgical specialist works alongside our orthodontists to manipulate the jaws into their ideal position, ensuring optimal facial harmony. Coordinated Approach Your entire care team collaborates to formulate a comprehensive treatment plan tailored specifically to your unique needs and goals.

  4. Treatment Pathway Overview 1 Initial Consultation Comprehensive assessment to determine if surgical orthodontics is right for you. 2 Meet Your Surgeon Introduction to your maxillofacial surgeon and detailed treatment planning. 3 Braces Fitting Orthodontic appliances placed to begin aligning your teeth in preparation. 4 Regular Adjustments Scheduled appointments to monitor progress and adjust braces as needed. 5 Surgical Procedure Maxillofacial surgery repositions jaws into their optimal functional position. 6 Post-Surgery Refinement Fine-tuning tooth positions to achieve your ideal bite and smile. 7 Completion & Retention Braces removed and retainers fitted to maintain your beautiful results.

  5. Alternative Options: Camouflage Treatment Not everyone requires surgery. Camouflage treatment uses orthodontic braces and other techniques such as strategic tooth extractions to mask underlying jaw discrepancies. Many patients with varying degrees of jaw size differences achieve excellent results through camouflage orthodontics alone, without the surgical component. Ready to explore your options?
