What is “Surgery first vs orthodontics first” ?
If you perform jaw surgery, such as an orthognathic surgery, your jaw will move to a new position, so you
need a period of adjustment to Calibration is necessary to correct the combination of the upper and
lower jaws and teeth.
Most of the time, surgery can be done first, but depending on the state of the union, you can decide
whether to do the surgery first or to do the orthodontics first. Line-up dentistry, which performs a
safe jaw-face operation, uses a precise diagnosis to determine whether to perform an orthodontics,
minimum orthodontics, or surgery first.
Types of orthognathic surgery by surgical period
Traditionally, the most preferred method of surgery is to move the teeth through pre-operative orthodontics to the best place to operate for accurate surgery, and to complete the orthodontics with post-operative finishing.
If someone wants to do the surgery first, but it's not possible, It is a method to perform corrective treatment only to the extent that surgery is possible and to perform jaw correction surgery.
Generally, the surgery is performed after undergoing preoperative orthodontics, but if you become an indication, the surgery is performed first and then the orthodontic treatment is performed based on the correct surgical plan established in collaboration with the department. Surgery improves the appearance of the patient without a orthodontics period, so post-operative orthodontics can be easier due to the secretion of materials that promote post-operative orthodontics.

surgery first VS orthodontics first POINT
1mm prediction surgery first
It is important to accurately predict the condition immediately after surgery. We have a very precise prediction system, we have a sophisticated surgical plan, and we have experienced dentists operating, so we can do the surgery without error.
Surgery first
Based on the surgery plan, when you simulate post-op dental interlocking with a dental model, you determine whether it is operable or not by looking at the confluence.
Cooperation of dentosurgical and orthodontics
After a thorough examination, experienced orthodontists and oral neurosurgeons gather to develop treatment plans in the most suitable way for the patient based on the examination results.
