If you have developed an improper or misaligned bite, you will likely benefit from corrective jaw surgery. Jaw growth is a gradual process and in some instances, the upper and lower jaws can grow at different rates. Injuries and birth defects can also affect jaw alignment. Chewing and speech functions, long-term oral health, and your facial appearance can all suffer from these problems.
Orthodontics alone can correct bite problems when only the teeth are involved, while orthognathic surgery can reposition jaws, which often resolves even the most severe functional and cosmetic issues.
