Corrective jaw surgery for severely protruding teeth

16/3/2017

0 Comments

 
The upper jaw or Maxilla was disproportionately larger as compared to the lower jaw causing a short upper lip and too much of the gums to be visible while smiling. Maxillofacial Surgeon Dr. S.M. Balaji successfully performed the corrective jaw surgery or orthognathic surgery with Le Fort I osteotomy. The upper jaw was set back and realigned in perfect facial harmony. The entire procedure was done from inside the mouth so there were no scars.

Corrective jaw surgery or Orthognathic surgery for enhanced appearance

The overgrowth of the lower jaw (mandible) causes a “long face”.  Disproportionate jaws may cause problems in speaking, biting, chewing, swallowing and breathing, undue stress on the jaw joint (TMJ) and facial muscles, and also affects facial appearance.
Obwegeser’s bilateral sagittal split osteotomy is done to surgically reduce excess bone in the lower jaw and create more balanced facial features. Results are immediate and there is no scarring as the procedure is done inside the mouth.
