Orthognathic surgery consists of the bone movement of the maxillary and mandibular areas, through this surgical procedure we can correct cranio-maxillofacial and dental defects. In this way, we achieve harmony between the patient's facial features. Because these problems appear during the growth phase of each individual, eventually they settle when it ends and may cause various problems such as apnea sleep, temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ), lack of facial aesthetic or malocclusion balance, among some.
Osteophoenix manufactures custom orthognathic plates in titanium, as well as the surgical guides necessary to perform these treatments. Our design team works together with the maxillofacial specialist to ensure that the device meets the needs of the patient accurately and efficiently.
This procedure must be carried out to reposition the maxilla in the proper place so that we can regain the functionality of the bone, which has a very important role in breathing, chewing and speaking. In addition, it allows to establish harmony between the different facial parts when we find different types of defects such as open bite, gummy smile, maxillary hypoplasia, facial asymmetry or class III.
