Understanding Orthognathic Jaw Surgery

Orthognathic jaw surgery, also known as corrective jaw surgery, is a specialized procedure designed to correct irregularities of the jaw bones. When combined with orthodontic care, this surgery can effectively address issues related to misaligned bites, improving both functionality and aesthetics.
