Surgical Orthodontics

Comprehensive Surgical Orthodontics for Complex Cases

Achieve Functional and Aesthetic Balance

Surgical orthodontics, also known as orthognathic surgery, is a specialized treatment that combines orthodontic care with corrective jaw surgery. This approach is designed to address severe bite discrepancies and jaw irregularities that cannot be corrected with braces or aligners alone.
At Yaali Dental Clinic, we offer surgical orthodontics for patients with significant skeletal discrepancies or facial asymmetry that impact their bite, speech, or overall facial aesthetics. Our expert team collaborates closely with oral and maxillofacial surgeons to provide tailored solutions for complex orthodontic cases.

About the treatment

What is Surgical Orthodontics

Surgical orthodontics, or orthognathic surgery, is a treatment approach used for patients with severe bite misalignments or jaw irregularities. These issues can affect essential functions like chewing, speaking, and breathing, and may also impact the facial appearance.

This treatment involves two stages:

  1. Orthodontic Preparation: Braces or aligners are used to align the teeth.
  2. Jaw Surgery: Once teeth are properly positioned, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon performs corrective jaw surgery to reposition the upper jaw (maxilla), lower jaw (mandible), or both. This helps to correct the skeletal irregularities, improve bite alignment, and enhance facial balance.

Surgical orthodontics is often recommended for patients whose bite problems stem from jaw positioning rather than teeth misalignment alone. The outcome of this combined treatment approach is a functional and aesthetically balanced smile.
