What is Facial Deformity and Corrective Jaw Surgery?
This type of surgery deals with the
correction and alteration of both hard (bony) and soft (skin)
tissues of the face and may include the top and bottom jaws,
nose and also the chin. Patients suffering from
these conditions may not only be unhappy with their facial
features but also have problems chewing as the teeth may not
meet properly. Common conditions requiring surgey would
include treatment of under or over development of the jaws and
chin, and is often undertaken with orthodontics ( a period of
braces) to align the teeth.
This type of surgery, in combination with
orthodontics, can give dramatic results.
