Corrective Dental Procedures
|
Corrective surgery is performed by a dentist or oral surgeon to correct a wide range of skeletal and dental irregularities, such as the misalignment of teeth and jaw. Frequently oral surgery can improve a patient's ability to speak, chew, and even breathe. Oral surgery may dramatically enhance a patient's appearance, however it's primary purpose is to correct functional problems. Some of the conditions that may necessitate oral surgery are difficulty biting or chewing, excessive wear of teeth, facial injury, chronic jaw pain, and sleep apnea. |
Dr. Mueller will consult with you as to whether you are a candidate for surgery. Your treatment may be completed in a single visit or require several appointments to complete, depending on its complexity. Dr. Mueller understands that this is a long-term commitment for you and your family, and will try to accurately estimate the time required to successfully complete your treatment.
