Jaw Deformity CorrectionMAHENDRA DENTAL HOSPITAL
Jaw Deformity ● If deformities of the teeth and jaws are too extreme for Orthodontics, Orthognathic (jaw) surgery
becomes the procedure of choice.● Malformations of the jaws and face can be traced to trauma, disease, or heredity● Jaw deformities may be caused by genetic factors, trauma and certain birth defects, such as cleft lip
and cleft palate.● By repositioning the jaws, the surgeon can help you avoid future problems with your bite and provide
a better cosmetic appearance.
Signs and Symptoms
Jaw deformities need to be corrected in case of the following problems
● Under bite or overbite, caused by malocclusion (the improper alignment of the teeth )● “Gummy smile,” in which your upper jaw has grown too far down● “Long face syndrome,” in which you have an open bite with a long-looking face● “Toothless smile,” in which your upper jaw is too small● Prognathic Jaw (Lower jaw is bigger).● Chin size – The chin may be over or under developed and would make the face look
disproportionate.
Diagnosis
When making a diagnosis of your jaw deformity, your oral and maxillofacial surgeon will first start by asking about your medical history and conducting a thorough physical and dental evaluation. This will include evaluating:● The proportions of your face.● Functional problems and abnormalities related to your jaws and teeth.● Problems with dental hygiene, periodontal problems such as gum pockets, gum infections
and recession of gums.● Functional problems and abnormalities related to your air passage, which may cause
problems such as sleep apnea(disorders such as mouth breathing and snoring).In addition dental casts, photographs of your face, imaging tests such as X-rays and CT scans also may be recommended to assess potential treatment approaches.

Treatment
Jaw deformities caused by unequal jaw growth can be surgically corrected. Treating your jaw deformity will eliminate or greatly reduce any problems related to your condition, such as chewing, breathing and speaking difficulties, as well as restore the aesthetic balance of your entire face.Corrective jaw surgery involves moving all or part of the upper or lower jaw, or both, into a more balanced position. The majority of the surgery is performed inside the mouth without any external scarring. A hospital stay and recovery period may be necessary for some of the surgeries, while minor procedures can be performed on a same-day basis.
