Corrective Jaw Surgery
Various abnormalities in the face and jaw may cause discomfort, embarrassment, or difficulty chewing and speaking. “Orthognathic” means “straight jaws.” Corrective jaw surgery is called orthognathic surgery. It corrects jaw and facial deformities.
Our Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons can reposition the facial bones to restore proper function and facial appearance.
