Orthognathic surgery, or corrective jaw surgery, is a procedure designed to correct misalignments of the jaw and teeth, enhancing both function and appearance. At London Dental Specialists, we follow a structured process to ensure optimal outcomes: beginning with a comprehensive consultation and assessment, we develop a personalised treatment plan, proceed with the surgical procedure, and provide thorough post-operative care. This approach addresses issues such as malocclusion, jaw asymmetry, and obstructive sleep apnoea, ultimately improving chewing, speaking, and breathing functions.

Orthognathic surgery, also known as corrective jaw surgery, is a procedure that corrects skeletal irregularities of the jaw and face. It is performed to improve functional problems such as difficulty chewing, speaking, or breathing, as well as to enhance facial aesthetics. At London Dental Specialists, this surgery is typically performed in conjunction with orthodontic treatment to ensure optimal alignment of the teeth and jaws.
Good candidates for orthognathic surgery at London Dental Specialists include individuals with:
Patients should have completed facial growth, which typically occurs by age 16 for females and 18 for males.
Recovery from orthognathic surgery occurs in stages. Initial jaw healing typically takes about six weeks, during which patients gradually return to normal activities. Complete healing can take up to 12 weeks. After the initial healing period, your orthodontist at London Dental Specialists will continue aligning your teeth with braces. The entire treatment process, including pre-surgical orthodontics, surgery, and post-surgical orthodontics, may take 18-24 months to complete.
Orthognathic surgery is performed under general anaesthesia, so patients do not experience pain during the procedure. Following surgery, patients can expect some discomfort, swelling, and bruising, which is managed with prescribed pain medication. Most patients report that the discomfort is less than anticipated and typically subsides significantly within the first week. The team at London Dental Specialists provides comprehensive post-operative care instructions to minimise discomfort during recovery.
Initially after orthognathic surgery, speaking may be challenging due to swelling and adjusting to your new jaw position. While your jaws may be secured with elastic bands rather than being wired shut, it's still beneficial to attempt speaking to aid in returning to normal oral function. Most patients notice speech improvements within 2-3 weeks, with complete return to normal speech patterns within 6-8 weeks. Speech therapy is rarely required but can be arranged through London Dental Specialists if necessary.
Following orthognathic surgery at London Dental Specialists, patients progress through several dietary stages:

The extent of change depends on the specific procedures performed and your individual facial structure. At London Dental Specialists, our surgical planning includes detailed imaging and discussions about expected aesthetic outcomes. Most patients report positive changes to their profile, facial proportions, and smile aesthetics following surgery.
As with any surgical procedure, orthognathic surgery carries some risks. These may include:
