Chicago Orthognathic Surgery

Misaligned jaws can lead to difficulties and effects that range from unpleasant to painful. Our Chicago orthognathic surgery, though, can correct those problems. It is important to have jaws that meet properly and are in sync with each other. Let us at Northwestern Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons, PC help with advanced methods and equipment, such as 3-D models that allow our oral surgeon to restore your normal jaw function.

How do you know that you could benefit from our Chicago orthognathic surgery? There are some signs that you should look for. If you experience one or more of them, it is a good idea to call us and schedule an exam and consultation to determine if this procedure is the right one for you. Among the symptoms are a protruding jaw, speech difficulties, breathing difficulties, an open bite, having TMJ disorder, and problems with biting, chewing, or swallowing.

Our oral surgeon will conduct a thorough examination that includes a physical checkup of your jaws and face. X-rays will also be taken, and you will tell us about your medical history, heredity, relevant injuries, and any possible environmental factors that could contribute to your jaw issues and may offer important clues to exactly what is happening and why. You will also have the chance to ask any questions that you have. A diagnosis will be formed and treatment options will be discussed, including the possibility of our Chicago orthognathic surgery.

Should surgery we determined as the proper path for your unique situation, additional x-rays will be taken, as well as 3-D photos of your face and jaw area. You can even see on the computer what exactly needs to be done and an estimate of how you will look when the surgery has been completed. There are very obvious benefits to be had from our Chicago orthognathic surgery. You can get back a precise and normal bite; one that does not cause you any pain or discomfort. If your jaws are currently clicking or clenching when you open and closet them, that can be remedied as well. You will be able to speak, eat, and possibly even breathe better and easier as the result of this procedure.
