Jaw Surgery & Reconstruction

Jaw Surgery & Reconstruction is a form of surgery to correct conditions of the face and jaw related to facial structure, sleep apnrea, TMJ disorders or to correct orthodontic (braces) problems that cannot be easily treated with braces alone.

Planning for this surgery usually involves input from a multidisciplinary team. Dental professionals such as Oral and Maxillofacial surgeons and Orthodontists are usually involved.

The main goal of jaw surgery is to achieve a correct bite, an aesthetic face and an enlarged airway.

After the surgery is completed, the patients are often required to adhere to an all-liquid diet. Weight loss due to lack of appetite and liquid diet is common. Normal recovery period may range from weeks for a minor surgery, to up to a year for more complicated ones.

Over at Ho Kee Hai & Partners, we have a multi-disciplinary team of experienced dental professionals who are knowledgeable and well equipped to perform the surgery.

We will be glad to have a discussion with you on how jaw surgery can help to improve the overall aesthetics, as well as to provide a better bite.
