Jaw surgery FAQs
Questions to bring to consultation
Is jaw surgery the same as TMJ treatment?
No. Orthognathic surgery changes jaw position; TMJ and jaw-muscle concerns have a separate assessment and treatment pathway.
Will I need braces before or after surgery?
Some plans include orthodontic treatment. The sequence depends on your bite and the goals of the plan.
How long is recovery?
Recovery varies with the procedure and individual health. Your team should provide case-specific guidance.
