If you have been recommended for jaw surgery, our skilled team at Alban City Dental & Surgical Centre can provide you with the braces necessary to prepare you for surgery.

In most cases where jaw surgery is required to correct and realign the jaw, patients will have to wear orthodontic braces for 12 – 18 months beforehand. At Alban City Dental & Surgical Centre, our professional orthodontists will work with a maxillofacial surgeon to develop a treatment plan for each patient. Using X-rays, CT scans, computer-guided treatment, and digital imaging, we’ll be able to make this process as easy as possible for the patient.

Facts and FAQs

Jaw surgery can be necessary to correct a mismatched jaw, large asymmetry, or if the jaws have grown away from one another.

When orthodontics alone cannot correct these issues, we may have to recommend jaw surgery.

The treatment journey for jaw surgery can take up to three years to complete, including 12 – 18 months of wearing your braces beforehand.

The surgery itself is carried out under general anaesthetic by a maxillofacial surgeon in a hospital and includes up to six weeks of recovery time.

Braces are also required after surgery to ensure the success of the treatment, and you’ll have to wear a retainer to maintain the new position of the jaw and teeth.

Our team will be with you at every step of your treatment journey to help guide you through the process and offer advice.
