What is orthognathic surgery?

Orthognathic (jaw) surgery is performed by a maxillofacial surgeon to reposition the upper and/or lower jaw. It’s often recommended for patients with severe bite issues, facial asymmetry, or jaw function problems that can’t be corrected with orthodontics alone. At Bamford Orthodontics, we work closely with local surgeons to coordinate your orthodontic treatment before and after surgery.

Can Invisalign® be used for jaw surgery preparation?

In some cases, yes. Depending on the complexity of your case, we may be able to use Invisalign® aligners to prepare your teeth for orthognathic surgery. We'll assess your bite and advise you on the most effective and comfortable approach to your treatment.
