Comprehensive Recovery Timeline

What to expect during your healing journey following orthognathic surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common concerns about orthognathic surgery and recovery.

Am I a candidate for orthognathic surgery? expand_more
Candidates include individuals with significant jaw misalignments affecting bite function, facial aesthetics, or breathing. Common conditions include severe overbite, underbite, open bite, facial asymmetry, or chin abnormalities.
Will I need braces before and after surgery? expand_more
Yes, most cases require orthodontic treatment. Pre-surgical orthodontics aligns teeth within each jaw. Post-surgical orthodontics (usually 6-12 months) fine-tunes the bite for optimal function.
How long does the surgery take? expand_more
Surgery duration varies. Single jaw surgery typically takes 2-3 hours. Bimaxillary surgery may take 4-6 hours. Hospital stay is usually 2-3 days for monitoring.
Will there be visible scars? expand_more
No, orthognathic surgery is performed entirely through intraoral incisions - there are no visible external scars. All bone cuts and hardware placement are done through the mouth.
Is orthognathic surgery covered by insurance? expand_more
Coverage depends on medical necessity. Functional problems like difficulty chewing, breathing issues, or speech problems often qualify. Purely cosmetic concerns may not be covered.
When can I return to normal activities after surgery? expand_more
Most patients return to office work within 2-3 weeks. Strenuous activities should be avoided for 4-6 weeks. Contact sports should be avoided for 8-12 weeks for proper bone healing.
