Minor tooth crookedness can be effectively corrected with orthodontic treatment, but when complex functional problems due to misaligned jaws and teeth are present, you may need surgical intervention. Incorrectly positioned jaws, such as an overbite, can lead to numerous issues that affect everyday movements for proper eating, speaking, and breathing and cause chronic jaw pain, muscle tension, and headaches. Our specialized orthognathic (jaw) surgery at DCB Associates addresses the functional issues of an open bite, underbite, or overbite in Catonsville. MD. With this personalized surgical treatment, our oral and maxillofacial surgeon can restore proper jaw position and a correct bite—and ultimately help you regain a more functional and comfortable life!
Oral and maxillofacial surgeons are the only dental specialists who have the advanced training and experience to provide corrective jaw surgery. They receive additional years of intensive surgical training and residencies outside of dental school to perfect the innovative and specialized surgeries that correct jaw misalignment and deformities. Additionally, oral surgeons have both dental and medical degrees that give them the comprehensive knowledge and expertise to treat complex problems and manage any emergency that may arise. They also have the skill to ensure you experience aesthetic improvements alongside any functional corrections of your jaw problems. Working closely with your dentist and orthodontist, our oral and maxillofacial surgeon in Catonsville. MD can provide specialized treatment that improves jaw and tooth function. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons are truly the experts in jaw surgery and the superior choice for your treatment!
