Surgical Orthodontics in Markham
Advanced Treatment for Complex Orthodontic Needs
Understanding Surgical Orthodontics
The Perfect Combination of Orthodontics and Surgical Expertise
Surgical orthodontics (orthognathic surgery) is a specialized treatment approach that corrects severe jaw misalignments and bite problems that cannot be addressed with braces or aligners alone. This advanced procedure combines the expertise of orthodontics with oral and maxillofacial surgery to achieve optimal functional and aesthetic results.
Patients with significant jaw discrepancies, facial asymmetry, or severe malocclusions may benefit from this comprehensive treatment. At Oasis Orthodontics, Dr. Sharma works closely with skilled oral surgeons to create personalized treatment plans that deliver exceptional outcomes for our Markham patients.
The Benefits of Surgical Orthodontics
Life-Changing Results for Complex Cases
Improved Facial Balance
Surgical repositioning of the jaws creates harmony between facial features, enhancing overall appearance and creating a more balanced profile.
Enhanced Chewing Function
Correcting severe jaw misalignments dramatically improves bite function, making it easier to chew food properly and reducing strain on jaw muscles.
Better Speech Clarity
Properly aligned jaws and teeth allow for clearer speech patterns, especially for patients whose misalignments have affected pronunciation.
Relief from TMJ Pain
Many patients experience significant reduction in jaw pain, headaches, and TMJ disorders following surgical correction of jaw discrepancies.
Long-term Stability
Addressing the underlying skeletal issues creates more stable results than orthodontic treatment alone, reducing the chance of relapse.
How Surgical Orthodontics Differs from Standard Treatment
Beyond Conventional Orthodontic Care
While traditional orthodontics can correct many alignment issues, some skeletal discrepancies require surgical intervention. Surgical orthodontics addresses the underlying bone structure, repositioning the jaws to create proper alignment and facial balance.
This approach is typically recommended for adult patients whose jaw growth is complete (usually by age 16 for females and 18 for males). The combined surgical-orthodontic treatment ensures both proper tooth alignment and skeletal harmony for optimal function and appearance.
The Surgical Orthodontics Process
Your Journey to a Transformed Smile
Pre-Surgical Orthodontics
Braces or aligners prepare your teeth for optimal positioning after surgery, typically lasting 6–18 months.
Surgical Procedure
Performed by an oral surgeon in a hospital setting, the procedure precisely repositions the jaws according to the treatment plan.
Recovery Period
Most patients return to normal activities within 2–3 weeks, with a soft food diet recommended during initial healing.
Post-Surgical Orthodontics
Fine-tuning of your bite continues for 6–12 months after surgery to perfect your new smile.
Retention
Retainers maintain your beautiful results for years to come, preserving your investment.
