Realign Your Bite, Restore Your Confidence

When the top and bottom jaws don’t align properly, it can lead to pain, limited motion, and tooth damage. Orthognathic surgery repositions the jaws to restore function, correct alignment, and enhance facial appearance.

Unlike orthodontics, which only addresses teeth, jaw surgery corrects jaw structural issues. Our board-certified oral surgeon, Dr. Ryan Hambleton, offers expert jaw surgery in Highlands Ranch, CO, to support your long-term health and confidence.

Signs You May Need Orthognathic Surgery

What to Expect with Jaw Surgery

Orthognathic surgery is a significant procedure that typically requires months of careful planning. Dr. Hambleton will develop your treatment plan to ensure the best possible results.

Surgery is performed in a hospital setting under safe and effective sedation. Depending on the complexity of your case, the procedure can take 1-4 hours.

Most patients stay in the hospital for 1-3 days following surgery. Braces are often left on during the procedure and typically removed 6–12 months after surgery.

Recovery can be the most involved part of the process:

  • Expect to take two weeks to a month off from work or school
  • Chewing function may take up to two months to return
  • Complete function can take up to one year to restore

Weekly follow-up appointments are essential for tracking your healing progress. Dr. Hambleton and our team will be with you throughout every phase to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal outcome.

Your safety, comfort, and confidence are our top priorities from beginning to end. We are here to guide and support you at every step of your surgical journey.
