Jaw Surgery and
Joint Treatments
With over 15 years of surgical experience, we offer expert solutions for everything from jaw joint issues to structural deformities.
What is Jaw Surgery?
Jaw surgery is a surgical branch that treats structural problems of the jaw bones, joint disorders, and post-traumatic damage. It provides both functional and aesthetic improvements.
With over 15 years of experience, we offer comprehensive services in jaw surgery. We provide accurate diagnosis and effective treatment options to patients who come with complaints such as chewing difficulty, jaw pain, joint sounds, or facial asymmetry.
Jaw surgery includes treatments that significantly improve quality of life. Excellent results are achieved with correct diagnosis and planning.
Personalized Diagnosis and Planning
We provide a full diagnosis using detailed examination, X-rays, and MRI when necessary, creating the most suitable surgical or conservative treatment plan for you.
How Does the Process Work?
A detailed history and physical exam are conducted. Digital imaging identifies the root cause of your complaints.
Depending on the problem, conservative approaches like splint therapy or surgical options are planned.
Surgical procedures are performed by experts in hospital or clinical settings, prioritizing your comfort throughout.
Healing is monitored through regular checks. Physical therapy and exercises support functional success when needed.

Is This Treatment Right for Me?
We've compiled the topics our patients are most curious about:
Not every joint sound requires treatment. If there's no pain or loss of function, follow-up may suffice after evaluation.

This is an acute situation requiring fast intervention. Early treatment can restore joint mobility.
These surgeries correct both chewing function and improve facial balance (asymmetry), providing aesthetic benefits.
Minimal procedures take a few days, while major surgeries like orthognathic can take months for full recovery.
Yes, bruxism is a leading cause of joint damage. Using a night guard (splint) prevents this damage.
Functional and Aesthetic Gains
Jaw surgeries don't just change your look; they directly improve speech, chewing, and breathing quality. A balanced jaw means a healthy joint mechanism.
