Patient reviews
Years ago I broke my jaw, but the treatment in another city wasn't done quite correctly, and my bite remained off ever since. I hesitated for a long time before deciding to do something about it. At the consultation the surgeon showed me on the imaging exactly what the problem was and explained that an osteotomy would be needed. The surgery was successful, and for the first time in years my teeth close normally.
After an old injury my jaw healed with slight displacement, which caused noticeable facial asymmetry that hadn't been there before. I went for a consultation, the doctor reviewed the imaging in detail and proposed a plan with 3D modelling. The surgery was more complex than a standard bite correction, but the result met my expectations - the asymmetry disappeared.
After a fracture in my teenage years, no one warned me the jaw could heal incorrectly. As an adult, problems with my bite and chewing began. The clinic identified the root cause and proposed surgical correction with preparation. Recovery took time, but the result was worth it - my bite is correct now.
Frequently asked questions
Can the jaw be corrected even if the fracture healed long ago?
Yes, in such cases an osteotomy is needed - the doctor re-separates and correctly fixes the bone.
How is this different from a standard orthognathic operation?
The principle is similar, but here the doctor first accounts for the deformity that has already healed.
Is preparation with braces needed?
Often yes - an orthodontist may prepare the teeth before surgery so the bite meets correctly afterwards.
