Jaw Adjustment Procedure: Restoring Harmony to Your Jaw Structure
The complexity of the procedure requires a team of experienced dentists to carefully plan the realignment of your jaw. At Fly & Smile, our multidisciplinary team of specialists collaborates to ensure optimal results for each patient.
Benefits of jaw correction:
- Improves speech difficulties
- Increases chewing functionality
- Restores facial proportions
- Improves breathing patterns
- Relieves sleep apnea problems
Jaw correction procedure:
The journey begins with a thorough examination session where your dentist uses the latest digital technology, including realistic 3D models, to plan your surgery. These models not only illustrate the surgical process, but also help you visualize the expected impact on your facial structure.
At Fly & Smile, transparency is key and we involve you in every step of the planning process.
During surgery, incisions are made inside the mouth to avoid visible scars. After the jaw bones are precisely rearranged, your dentist secures them in place with screws. Procedures for the upper and lower jaws are performed separately during surgery.
Who is suitable for jaw correction?
Anyone with jaw abnormalities, such as a protruding jaw, an overbite, or underbite caused by genetics or accidents, is a candidate for jaw correction. However, orthodontic treatments should be attempted before doing so, as many cases of malocclusion can be corrected with traditional braces.

Jaw realignment becomes an option when orthodontic treatments do not correct a persistent problem.
Jaw correction results:
Instant improvements in appearance are noticeable, especially in the lower part of the face, where the proportions are balanced. Any existing problems, such as difficulty speaking or chewing, are eliminated.
Primary healing usually takes about 6 weeks, with final results becoming apparent after about 12 weeks. For optimal results, postoperative orthodontic treatment often begins at six months to fine-tune the alignment.
