Orthographic surgery: A Life-Changing Procedure

Sometimes braces alone are not enough to correct our bite. Discrepancies in the growth of the facial skeleton can cause our jaws to be misaligned, asymmetric, or mismatched in size. This can lead to problems with biting and chewing food, as well as problems with speech. Jaws that are too small can also impede our ability to breathe properly when asleep, leading to Obstructive Sleep Apnea, which can cause a host of serious medical conditions. Orthographic surgery can be a life-changing procedure improving your face, airway, and your bite!

5 out of 5 stars based on 5 Orthognathic/Jaw Surgery reviews.

Patient Review By Maddie K

What a joy to see my daughter wear her hair up, rather than hide behind it. To see her smile naturally for a picture instead of angling her profile "just so". Dr. Rivera's work took her from tentatively standing on the fringe of highschool social events, to confidently participating in them. The entire office staff was amazing, earning our trust in the first visit and keeping it through the last.
