Orthognathaic Surgery
Corrective jaw surgery known as "orthognathic surgery" is performed to change the position of your jaws when they don't meet correctly or your teeth don't appear to fit with your jaws. Your oral surgeon will work closely with Dr. Sammons who will straighten your teeth during the process. The words, "orthognathic" and "orthodontic" both come from the Greek, and mean "straight jaws" and 'straight teeth" respectively.
