Orthognathic + orthodontic surgery: The solution to maxillofacial deformities
Orthognathic surgery is a surgical procedure that aims to move the teeth and bones to a more suitable, more aesthetic, more functional and, of course, healthier position. This is achieved through the combination of two dental specialties: Orthodontics and Maxillofacial Surgery.
Candidate patients for orthognathic surgery are those who have severe dental malformations and / or malocclusions, which can be caused by excess or deficiency in bone growth, and cannot be corrected with orthodontics.
There are several conditions that can be taken as an alert for the patient to go to the dentist to evaluate his case: open bite, asymmetric facial appearance, protruding chin or jaw, inability to close the lips, chronic mouth breathing and difficulty breathing when sleeping , including snoring.
All these pathologies can be corrected effectively, with orthognathic surgery, which must always go hand in hand with orthodontic treatment, preferably prior to surgery, because, if this is not done, it would be impossible. restore facial and dental harmony to patients with this type of pathology.
