[b]Corrective Jaw Surgery[b]

Corrective jaw surgery is often recommended for people with irregular-shaped and malfunctioning jaws, as these may cause chronic pain and difficulty in speaking, chewing, or breathing. Other symptoms include excessive wear of the teeth, receding chin and lower jaw, and sleep apnea.

Corrective jaw surgery involves repositioning the upper and lower jaw for better jaw relationship and alignment of the patient’s teeth. Apart from its functional benefits, this procedure also enhances the patient’s facial profile and appearance. Depending on the severity of the problem, the surgery is usually done while the patient is under general anesthesia.
