Maxillofacial surgery at Icon Medical Center involves the following steps:

• The area intended for surgery is thoroughly cleaned and sterilized to reduce the risk of infection.
• A surgical incision or multiple incisions are made under the jaw or near the temporomandibular joint to access the internal tissues and structures precisely.
• Occasionally, chin redesign may be performed by removing small portions of fatty tissue beneath the skin.
• Necessary procedures are carried out to remove or graft parts of bone or tissues according to the patient’s condition and treatment requirements.
• After the surgery, the surgical incisions are meticulously stitched and closed, followed by the application of a compressive dressing to aid in the healing process.
• In certain cases, drainage tubes may be left to allow for the drainage of fluids and blood from the affected tissues.

Benefits of Orthognathic Jaw Surgery

Orthognathic jaw surgery provides numerous health and functional benefits, including:

1. 1. Improvement of Speech Problems: By correcting the position of the jaws and teeth, orthognathic jaw surgery can help correct speech problems that may result from improper jaw alignment.
   2. Enhancement of Chewing: When the position of the jaws is corrected, the chewing process becomes more efficient, leading to improved digestion and nutrition.
   3. Correction of Facial Asymmetry: Orthognathic jaw surgery may be necessary to correct any facial or jaw asymmetry, improving the overall facial appearance.
   4. Improvement of Breathing: In some cases, correcting the position of the jaws can improve airflow through the respiratory system, leading to better breathing and alleviating breathing problems.
