Orthognathic surgery, commonly known as jaw surgery, corrects discrepancies and enhances the function of the maxilla (upper jaw), mandible (lower jaw), and chin. The literal meaning of orthognathic surgery is to “put the jaw straight”.
By realigning the teeth and jaws, orthognathic surgery addresses orthodontic problems which cannot be resolved with braces alone. Orthognathic surgery also improves facial appearance for patients with skeletal disharmonies such as receding chin, protruding jaw, or facial assymetry. Additionally, it may be suitable for patients with facial injuries and chronic jaw pain (TMJ issues).
