Orthodontics Miami

Though your family dentist might have discovered problems with crooked teeth or misalignment between the upper and lower jaw, getting your smile into proper position could take specialized skill and knowledge. If you or a family member needs orthodontic treatment, our orthodontist in Miami provides customized solutions to problems affecting the teeth and bite.

HOW DOES ORTHOGNATHIC SURGERY WORK?

We will refer you to an oral and maxillofacial surgeon to perform your corrective jaw surgery. Usually performed in a hospital, the surgery moves your teeth and jaws into the proper position. This process can take several hours. Because this surgery is considered major treatment, you will have a two-week recovery period. To allow for complete healing, we recommend that you schedule time away from school or work. Once your jaw has healed, Dr. Thomas will make sure you have a proper bite. You will continue to wear braces after surgery for 6 to 12 months, and then will wear a retainer to stabilize your teeth in their proper positions.
