Key points

  • Corrects jaw position, not just the teeth
  • Done together with orthodontics
  • Improves bite, breathing and profile
  • A carefully planned process

01When it's needed

When the bite problem comes from the position of the jaws and not just the teeth, orthodontics alone is not enough. That's where orthognathic surgery comes in.

02How the process works

We work as a team with your orthodontist: an orthodontic phase, surgery to reposition the jaws and a final refining phase. Everything is planned in detail.

Orthognathic surgery doesn't just align the bite: it changes how you breathe, chew and look.

03What results to expect

Beyond a functional bite, it improves facial harmony and, in many cases, breathing. I explain each stage so you arrive confident and informed.

·Frequently asked questions

Is it a safe surgery?

Planned by a specialist, it is safe and predictable. Every case is studied in detail before operating.

How long does the whole treatment take?

It depends on the case; it includes orthodontic and surgical phases. At the assessment I explain the real timelines.
