SURGICAL ORTHODONTICS

At G Orthodontics, we understand that some orthodontic challenges require more than traditional approaches. Surgical orthodontics encompasses specialized interventions to address complex cases, including Miniscrew-assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion (MARPE) cases and Orthognathic cases. These surgical techniques are carefully tailored to optimize facial aesthetics and correct severe bite irregularities.

  1. MARPE Cases (Miniscrew-assisted Rapid Palatal Expansion):

Definition:

MARPE involves the use of miniscrews to assist in the rapid palatal expansion of the upper jaw. This advanced orthodontic procedure is designed to address maxillary deficiencies through skeletal expansion, creating additional space and promoting natural adjustments to the upper jaw’s shape and size.

Minimally Invasive Procedure:

One of the key advantages of dental bondings is their minimally invasive nature. Unlike more extensive dental procedures, bondings typically require little to no enamel removal, preserving the natural structure of the tooth. This ensures that the treatment is conservative, preserving your dental health while enhancing the aesthetics of your smile.

Swift and Convenient:

Dental bondings are typically completed in just one visit to our office. This quick and efficient process makes it a convenient option for individuals seeking immediate improvements in the appearance of their teeth. Whether it’s a small chip, uneven edges, or other cosmetic concerns, dental bondings offer a prompt solution.

Common Option for Smile Improvement:

Dental bondings have become a popular choice for those who want to improve the appearance of their teeth without undergoing extensive dental procedures. They provide a versatile solution for addressing various cosmetic issues, enhancing the overall esthetics of the smile with a natural and seamless result.

Your Personalized Smile Transformation:

At G Orthodontics, we take pride in offering personalized solutions to perfect your smile. Dental bondings, as part of our comprehensive services, allow us to tailor the treatment to your unique needs, ensuring that your smile reflects the beauty and symmetry you desire.

Whether you have recently completed orthodontic treatment or are simply looking to enhance the aesthetics of your smile, dental bondings offer a quick, effective, and aesthetically pleasing solution to achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.

2. Orthognathic Cases:

Definition:

Orthognathic surgery, also known as corrective jaw surgery, involves surgical repositioning of the upper and/or lower jaw to achieve proper bite alignment and facial harmony. This comprehensive approach is recommended for severe cases where orthodontic treatment alone cannot address skeletal discrepancies.

Key Aspects of Orthognathic Cases:

  • Jaw Repositioning: Orthognathic surgery precisely repositions the upper, lower, or both jaws to correct severe bite irregularities and optimize facial aesthetics.
  • Collaborative Approach: Orthognathic cases require collaboration between an orthodontist and an oral and maxillofacial surgeon for comprehensive planning and execution.
  • Permanent Correction: Orthognathic surgery provides a permanent solution, ensuring stability and lasting functional improvement.

Benefits of Surgical Orthodontics:

  • Comprehensive Results: Surgical orthodontics is effective in addressing severe cases, offering comprehensive solutions that extend beyond the capabilities of traditional orthodontic treatments.
  • Permanent Stability: Both MARPE and Orthognathic cases provide permanent corrections, ensuring long-term stability and functionality.
  • Enhanced Facial Aesthetics: These surgical interventions contribute to improved facial aesthetics, ensuring that the smile is not only aligned but also harmoniously integrated with the overall facial structure.
