Corrective jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery) treats and corrects abnormalities of the facial bones, specifically the jaws and the teeth. Often, these abnormalities cause difficulty associated with chewing, talking, sleeping and other routine activities. Orthognathic surgery corrects these problems and, in conjunction with orthodontic treatment, will improve the overall appearance of the facial profile.
Benefits and Advances in Orthognathic Surgery
Using the latest in digital imaging technology, we will demonstrate the overall functional and aesthetic benefits of orthognathic surgery. Computerized treatment planning minimizes treatment times, recovery periods and the overall efficacy of your surgery. State-of-the-art materials such as titanium plates and miniature screws provide stability, strength and predictability to your treatment. These advances in technology, procedures and equipment reduce post-surgical recovery time, thus allowing patients to return to their normal routines soon after the surgery.
Orthognathic surgery may be unnecessary if orthodontic treatment can correct the problem. With the latest advances in orthodontics, this is sometimes the case. We will determine if orthognathic surgery is the correct treatment option for you.
Partnered Oral Surgery Care
We work closely with talented and trusted local oral surgeons to ensure you receive the highest level of care for procedures such as extractions, orthognathic surgery, exposures, and more.
Smith Smile Orthodontics Reviews
I am incredibly grateful to the entire team at Smiths Smiles Orthodontics! I am normally a patient at a Smile Doctors location in Tampa, but I was set to travel when my wire came loose around 8pm the night before the start of the trip.With my regular office being closed and no time to see them before leaving, I called Smiths Smiles Orthodontics and they were incredibly kind and helpful. Even though I wasn’t a regular patient at their office, they listened to my situation and got me taken care of that same day.Natasha at the front desk was so wonderful to talk to, the orthodontic assistant was kind and attentive, and Dr. Smith was equally friendly and attentive. Everyone made me feel welcomed and genuinely cared for.Thanks to them, I was able to get back on the road without a loose wire poking my cheek for the rest of the weeklong trip! What could have been a very stressful situation turned into such a positive experience because of how caring and accommodating the Smith Smile team was.Thank you to the entire Smiths Smiles team, for going above and beyond to help me when I needed it. I truly appreciate you all and would highly recommend this office to anyone in the Marietta area.
I really enjoyed the warm welcome that my family experienced today at Smith Smile Orthodontics. We were able to complete our consultation and start our treatment on the same day. Thanks so much for your flexibility.
Excellent consultation experience with an orthodontist with extensive expertise!! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a honest orthodontist!!
Always a great experience at Smith Smile! I'm post-Invisalign, just doing retainer follow-up appts now. Warm and thoughtful care and knowledgeable professionals. Highly recommend!
Dr Smith is a great orthodontist. He treats me like one of his own. My teeth will look great! He truly cares about his patients, as he calls after new appliances to check on me. Thank you, Dr. Smith!
