SURGICAL ORTHODONTICS

In some cases, orthodontic treatment on its own may not be able to achieve your overall aims or provide stable and functional results. Sometimes we will need to work together with other dental specialists so that you can benefit from their additional areas of expertise. 

For a small group of adults who have a mis-match in jaw size or position, they may benefit from treatment with a combination of orthodontics and jaw surgery this is called Orthognathic Treatment.
