- Initial Consultation & Diagnosis: We start with a full assessment, including digital imaging, to evaluate jaw alignment and bite issues.
- Pre-Surgical Orthodontics: Braces or clear aligners like Angel Aligners are used to move your teeth into the proper position before surgery.
- Collaborative Surgical Planning: We coordinate with your oral and maxillofacial surgeon to ensure a precise surgical roadmap.
- Orthognathic Surgery: Your jaw is surgically repositioned to improve both function and appearance.
- Post-Surgical Orthodontics: Continued treatment refines your bite and stabilizes your results.
- Retention Phase: We provide custom retainers to protect your new smile long-term.
This transformative journey doesn’t just improve how you look, it enhances how you function every day.
