Careful Assessment

Facial deformity associated with jaw malalignment and malocclusion can be addressed with orthognathic surgery to reposition the maxilla or mandible, or both, in combination with dental alignment with orthodontic treatment. Careful assessment of facial proportion and treatment planning allows precise repositioning of the facial skeleton and teeth to restore appearance and occlusion.

Routine Procedure

ABSTRACT Over the last three decades orthognathic surgery has become a routine procedure for the correction of facial deformation. People have become aware and more concerned about the maxillofacial deformation. Surgery of the facial skeleton involves complex three-dimensional movements based on a series of nonsurgical procedures. Bimaxillary osteotomies, which change the occlusal level to improve function and enhance physical appearance, requires to be planned preoperatively with the help of model surgery. This paper explains the procedure of model surgery using an semiadjustable articulator, along with fabrication of the wafer.
