TMJ, Underbite & Jaw Surgery in Broadmoor Estate
Some bite problems come from the jaws themselves, not just the teeth. Working out whether a problem is dental or skeletal is the critical first step. This guide explains TMJ, skeletal bites and when orthognathic surgery is involved.
Orthognathic (Jaw) Surgery
Orthognathic surgery repositions one or both jaws to correct skeletal discrepancies that orthodontics alone cannot address. Performed by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon (OMFS) under general anaesthetic, it is combined with 12-18 months of orthodontic treatment before and after the surgical procedure.
Orthodontic Conditions in Broadmoor Estate
What looks like a purely cosmetic issue often carries real functional consequences. Patients across Broadmoor Estate seek assessment for everything from mild crowding to complex bite misalignments. Understanding your condition is the first step to knowing what treatment can help.
Early Assessment in Broadmoor Estate
Many orthodontic problems are easier to treat when identified early — particularly in growing patients where jaw development can still be guided. Orthodontists generally recommend a first assessment by age 7–8, not because treatment starts then, but because a specialist can identify developing problems that benefit from early intervention.
Teen Orthodontics in Broadmoor Estate
