Orthofacial surgery, also known as orthognathic surgery or operative jaw correction, is a specialized procedure aimed at correcting jaw alignment, facial bone anomalies, and facial asymmetry. This surgery significantly impacts both functionality and aesthetics for patients.
The appearance of the face is largely determined by the position of the jaws and teeth, which act as the framework over which the skin and other tissues lie. A balanced face and a beautiful smile contribute to self-confidence and overall well-being. In addition to aesthetics, the functions of the teeth, jaws, and face must also be optimal.
Many people are unaware that misaligned jaws can cause dental or facial appearance problems. It is crucial to clearly identify issues and patient desires. Modern imaging techniques, such as 3D scans of the face and teeth, assist in this process.
Based on this information, a treatment proposal is created, involving collaboration among various experts, including the maxillofacial surgeon, orthodontist, technical physician, and possibly other specialists. Our approach starts with the end goal in mind, using 3D simulations of the desired result before treatment, ensuring the patient is fully informed about the procedure and potential outcomes.
The treatment execution aims to achieve the desired result. Surgical corrections require a combination of various expertise. Besides surgery, aesthetic corrections may also be needed to further enhance the outcome. This is done in collaboration with a team of experienced professionals dedicated to providing the best possible care for each patient.
The mission of 3D VSP is to bring together surgical/medical and technical/scientific expertise for the patient. Using computer simulations, we create digital treatment plans and, with highly accurate equipment, produce medical tools to execute the surgery as accurately as possible.
