Comprehensive Solutions for Complex Smiles
Surgical Orthodontics in Somerville, Hillsborough, & Montgomery Orthodontics
Surgical orthodontics at Somerset Orthodontic Specialists can correct complex jaw and bite concerns that braces or clear aligners alone cannot. By combining orthodontic treatment with jaw surgery, Dr. Robert Peterman and Dr. Michael Fogge help improve bite function, facial balance, and long-term oral health through a carefully coordinated treatment plan.
How Surgical Orthodontics Can Help
Most orthodontic concerns can be corrected with braces or clear aligners alone. However, when the upper and lower jaws are significantly out of alignment, surgical orthodontics may be the most effective way to create a healthy, functional bite.
Two Specialists Creating One Great Smile
Surgical orthodontic treatment is carefully planned from beginning to end. In most cases, orthodontic treatment begins first to position the teeth for surgery. After your oral surgeon performs the procedure, orthodontic treatment continues to fine-tune your bite and ensure your teeth fit together properly.
Because every smile is unique, Dr. Peterman and Dr. Fogge will develop a personalized treatment plan, monitor your progress throughout each phase, and help you understand what to expect every step of the way.
The Benefits of Surgical Orthodontics
Choosing surgical orthodontics is an investment in your long-term health and quality of life. While every patient's experience is different, treatment is always designed to address concerns that affect more than just your smile's appearance.
Improved Comfort
Living with a misaligned jaw can make everyday activities feel more difficult than they should be. After treatment, many patients notice greater comfort during everyday tasks, allowing them to focus less on their bite and more on living their lives.
Long Lasting Relief
Rather than managing the symptoms of a jaw discrepancy, surgical orthodontics addresses the underlying structural concern. That means treatment is designed with long-term stability in mind, helping support a healthier smile for years to come.
Balance Beyond Your Smile
The position of your jaws influences the overall appearance of your face. Correcting jaw alignment can enhance facial balance and proportion while creating a smile that looks as healthy as it feels.
