Understanding Orthognathic Surgery

What is Orthognathic Surgery?

Orthognathic surgery involves the surgical repositioning of the jaws to correct skeletal and dental irregularities. This procedure is often combined with orthodontic treatment to achieve a balanced and harmonious facial structure.

Common Reasons for Orthognathic Surgery

Common reasons for undergoing orthognathic surgery include misaligned jaws, severe overbites or underbites, open bites, and facial imbalances. It is also used to treat conditions such as sleep apnea and TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders.

Importance of Orthognathic Surgery

Orthognathic surgery is crucial for improving both the function and aesthetics of the jaw and face. It enhances the patient's ability to chew, speak, and breathe properly, while also providing a more balanced and attractive facial appearance.

Surgical Approach in Orthognathic Surgery

Preoperative Assessment

Before surgery, a comprehensive assessment is conducted to evaluate jaw alignment issues and determine the optimal surgical plan. This includes detailed imaging studies, dental evaluations, and consultations with the orthodontist to coordinate treatment goals.

Surgical Techniques

Dr. Ghulam Qadir Fayyaz employs advanced surgical techniques tailored to each patient's specific needs, which may include:
Mandibular Osteotomy: Repositioning the lower jaw to correct underbites or overbites. Maxillary Osteotomy: Repositioning the upper jaw to correct open bites or facial asymmetry. Genioplasty: Reshaping the chin to achieve facial harmony and balance.

Postoperative Care and Recovery

Following surgery, patients receive specialized care to manage pain, swelling, and ensure proper healing of the jaw bones. Close monitoring and follow-up appointments are scheduled to track progress and adjust treatment as needed.

Long-Term Results and Patient Satisfaction

    Preoperative Preparation

    Before the surgical procedure, thorough evaluations are conducted to assess the extent and severity of the cleft lip. This involves physical examinations, imaging studies, and consultations with a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals.

    Surgical Technique

    Primary cleft lip repair is performed under general anesthesia to ensure the comfort and safety of the child. The surgical procedure involves carefully repositioning and suturing the tissues of the upper lip to close the gap. The goal is to achieve a symmetrical and natural-looking lip contour while preserving or restoring normal function.

    Postoperative Care

    After surgery, meticulous postoperative care is essential to monitor healing and prevent complications. The child may need to stay in the hospital for a few days for observation and management of pain. Specialized feeding techniques and oral hygiene practices are also advised to support recovery and minimize the risk of infection.
