Corrective Jaw Surgery in Portland
At Head & Neck Surgical Associates, we provide corrective jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery) to resolve congenital and developmental imbalances, such as overbites and underbites. This life-changing procedure realigns the jaw to improve function, speech, and facial symmetry.
Benefits of Jaw Correction
- Restores ability to chew and eat comfortably.
- Relieves chronic TMJ and joint pain.
- Enhances facial proportions and aesthetics.
- Utilizes Virtual Surgical Planning (VSP) for maximum precision.
The Surgical Process
Our surgeons utilize intraoral incisions to avoid visible facial scarring. Whether performing a Sagittal Split Osteotomy (lower jaw), Le Fort I Osteotomy (upper jaw), or Chin Genioplasty, we coordinate closely with your orthodontist. The process typically involves pre-surgical orthodontics, the surgical procedure, and a recovery phase with a soft-food diet for 4–6 weeks.
