Jaw misalignment — where the upper and lower jaws do not meet correctly — can cause significant problems beyond just appearance. It affects chewing efficiency, speech, breathing, and the long-term health of your teeth and jaw joints. For patients in Hyderabad and Secunderabad with significant jaw discrepancies that cannot be corrected by orthodontics alone, jaw correction surgery — also known as orthognathic surgery — at Curavi Dental & Maxillofacial Centre provides a definitive, life-changing solution.
What Is Jaw Correction Surgery/Orthognathic Surgery?
Orthognathic surgery is a procedure that repositions the upper and lower jaws, or both, to correct their alignment. It is performed under general anaesthesia in a hospital setting and requires a planned healing period.
Most cases are planned in close coordination between our maxillofacial surgeon and an orthodontist, with patients typically undergoing a period of pre-surgical orthodontic treatment to prepare the teeth, followed by surgery, followed by further orthodontic refinement.
The results are both functional, improving chewing, speech, and breathing — and cosmetic, often producing a dramatic improvement in facial profile and balance.
Who Needs Jaw Correction Surgery/Orthognathic Surgery?
Jaw correction surgery is appropriate for patients whose jaw discrepancy is too large to be corrected by orthodontic treatment alone. This typically means a significant skeletal overbite — where the lower jaw sits too far back — a skeletal underbite — where the lower jaw protrudes significantly ahead of the upper — a crossbite or asymmetry affecting facial symmetry and chewing function, or an open bite where the front teeth cannot meet at all.
These conditions often cause secondary problems including TMJ pain from the joint being forced into an abnormal position, speech difficulties, sleep apnea in some cases, and significant self-consciousness about facial appearance.
The Treatment Journey of Jaw Correction/ Orthognathic Surgery at Curavi Dental Secunderabad
Consultation and Diagnosis
Your journey begins with a comprehensive assessment at Curavi in Secunderabad. We take clinical photographs, X-rays, and 3D imaging to precisely analyse your jaw relationships and facial proportions. We use computer-aided surgical planning to simulate the proposed movements and show you the expected outcome before surgery.
Pre-Surgical Orthodontics
Most patients require six to eighteen months of orthodontic treatment before surgery to align the teeth within each jaw independently. This may look as though the appearance is getting worse before it gets better — which is normal and expected. The surgery corrects the jaw position; the orthodontics ensures the teeth fit perfectly within it.
Surgery
The surgical procedure is performed under general anesthesia. Cuts are made inside the mouth — there are no visible external scars — and the jaw bones are repositioned to the pre-planned positions and secured with titanium plates and screws. Hospital stay is typically one to three days.
Recovery
Initial recovery involves soft diet, swelling, and some temporary numbness for several weeks. Most patients are back to work within two to four weeks. Full healing and bone remodeling takes three to six months, after which post-surgical orthodontic refinement completes the treatment.
