Orthodontic surgery, also known as orthognathic surgery, is a type of surgical intervention used to correct severe skeletal and dental irregularities that cannot be addressed by braces or other orthodontic treatments alone. This surgery focuses on realigning the jaw and facial bones to improve function, appearance, and overall oral health. It is often recommended for individuals with issues such as significant jaw misalignment, severe overbites or underbites, and facial deformities caused by congenital conditions or injury. Orthognathic surgery is typically performed after a patient has undergone orthodontic treatment with braces, which helps position the teeth in their correct alignment. The surgery involves repositioning the upper jaw (maxilla), lower jaw (mandible), or both to ensure proper alignment of the bite. It can also involve reshaping the jaw or removing sections of bone to correct irregularities. This type of surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia and requires a hospital stay of a few days. Recovery involves swelling, discomfort, and a soft-food diet for several weeks, with full recovery taking a few months. Orthodontic surgery not only improves the bite but also enhances facial aesthetics and can significantly improve speech, chewing, and overall quality of life.
