Orthognathic Surgery

Irregular skeletal growth can cause alignment problems between the upper and lower jaws. This misalignment creates functional difficulties with eating, speaking, and temporomandibular joint function (TMJ syndrome).

Common dentofacial deformities include under- or over-development of the jaw and misaligned teeth, resulting in overbites or underbites. The surgical procedures required to correct these deformities are often performed along with other dental procedures for optimum results. Orthognathic surgery results in facial and occlusal balance. With attentive individual care and patient-doctor communication, results are established and can be accurately achieved.

All of our orthognathic surgeries are performed in an ambulatory surgery center under I.V. sedation or general anesthesia depending on the operation and the patient. Dr. Marashi performs a wide range of procedures to achieve complete restoration of the entire facial and jaw structures. Our goal is to give you both the appearance you desire and the function you need.
