These interventions are ideal for those patients who have aesthetic and functional problems, due to an incorrect position of the teeth.
Orthodontics does not always provide a solution to the problems of deformations in the teeth, since they can suffer a deformation itself in the facial bone.
What is Maxillofacial Surgery?
Treatments covered by maxillofacial surgery
Maxillofacial surgery is a surgical procedure involving the oral cavity, neck, face, skull, and teeth.
This operation is recommended when dental implants need to be placed , or when high-risk extractions or bone grafts need to be performed.
These types of surgeries are known for being facial reconstructive , and are the solution for patients suffering from malocclusion (a misalignment of the teeth, which prevents the teeth from being in the correct place).
Maxillofacial surgery is also ideal when there is a discrepancy in the size of the jaws . This not only causes facial variations but can also lead to long-term problems.
What is the relationship between maxillofacial surgery and dental implants?
In addition to making the rehabilitation of complete arches possible, its advantages include the improvement of chewing functions, speech and aesthetics immediately after its placement.
However, the biggest benefit of fixed teeth in 24 hours, available at all Grupo Dental Clinics centers, is the significant savings on intermediate treatments . This system eliminates the need for transition periods with uncomfortable temporary prostheses when a patient wants to refresh their smile.
We offer you an immediate solution with a full guarantee : a fixed temporary prosthesis placed in a single procedure and screwed onto the implants. This prosthesis will be replaced with a permanent one after approximately four to five months, at which point the treatment will be complete.
Without a doubt, the fastest and most effective way to completely renew your smile.
