How do orthodontics and jaw surgery work together?
Orthodontics will generally be the first step in treatment. Brace treatment will be performed for the first 12 months to properly align the teeth, after which surgery will be implemented if necessary.
The treatment duration with orthognathic surgery is approximately 18 months. By combining surgery and orthodontics, we are able to maximise your facial and dental aesthetics and ensure the best results for severe or complex cases.
