Female Orthognathic Surgery - This woman had a long history of severe, progressive temporomandibular joint degeneration. The joint degeneration caused an open bite malocclusion where the only teeth that touched were her molar teeth. The upper jaw grew too long, and tilted down on the right, causing too much gum tissue to show when she smiled. Her lower jaw rotated backward making her chin appear weak, and creating a large gap between her upper and lower lips. After orthodontic treatment, upper jaw orthognathic surgery, and total reconstruction of both temporomandibular joints, her bite was normal and beautiful.

Man treated with Jaw Surgery - This patient had a skeletal reason for his teeth being out of position and rather than trying to fight nature, Dr. TImothy Osborn decided to fix both the upper and lower jaws with reconstructive jaw surgery, septoplasty, and limited access rhinoplasty. This patients aesthetic concerns were the crowded teeth, showing too much gum when he smiled, the lack of his chin prominence, and an unsupported nasal tip. To correct these, we moved the upper jaw forward and up, moved the lower jaw forward, and performed a Septoplasty, and Rhinoplasty from the underside of the nose It was a team effort, in coordination with Dr. Ella Osborn who moved his teeth to allow for a normal bite and perfect smile.Now he is a different person; not once in the 6 months leading up to his surgery did I see him smile, and at his final follow-up appointment, you couldnt get him to stop.

Severe Underbite Treated with Braces and Orthognathic Surgery - He was a severe Class III (underbite or anterior crossbite) with maxillary constriction (posterior crossbite). The timetable when patient's need jaw surgery is typically like this. I place braces first to get general alignment for 9-12 months. I then send them to the oral surgeon for the surgery. He usually stays 1-2 days in the hospital to rest. In this case, upper and lower jaw surgery was required. We allow him to heal for about 6 weeks i.e. no adjustments on his braces. I then finish his orthodontic work over the next 6-12 months depending on severity of case.
