Orthognathic surgery is needed when jaws don’t meet correctly and/or teeth don’t seem to fit with jaws. Teeth are straightened with orthodontics and corrective jaw surgery repositions misaligned jaws. This not only improves facial appearance, but also ensures that teeth meet correctly and function properly.Dr. Ochs can assist you in evaluating the need for Orthognathic Surgery, although complicated cases are typically referred to the local Teaching Hospitals.
