Orthognathic surgery is corrective jaw surgery performed in combination with orthodontic treatment to address significant jaw misalignment. These jaw differences may affect your speech, bite, facial balance, breathing, and overall comfort.

Before surgery, our orthodontist uses braces or clear aligners, like Invisalign, to position the teeth so they will fit together properly once the jaws are repositioned. We collaborate closely with an experienced oral and maxillofacial surgeon to plan each step of your treatment. Advanced imaging and digital planning help predict your results and enhance both function and appearance.

After surgery, orthodontic treatment continues to fine-tune your bite and stabilize your new jaw position. Orthognathic surgery can be life-changing for patients with severe overbites, underbites, open bites, or facial asymmetry. 

Our team coordinates Orthognathic surgery cases for patients in Overland Park and Lenexa, as well as surrounding areas including Shawnee, Leawood, Olathe, De Soto, and the wider Kansas City region
