Reface’s Personalized Orthognathic Surgery for Each Facial Type
Orthognathic surgery is a specialized treatment
that simultaneously achieves facial
form improvement
and functional occlusion restoration.
Reface Dental Hospital offers precisely
tailored surgical plans based on
each patient's unique anatomical
features,
providing fully customized orthognathic surgery.
Prognathism
Micrognathia
Long face
Facial asymmetry
A 3D CT scan is conducted prior to surgery to accurately evaluate the lower facial skeleton from frontal and lateral views.
3D simulation enables intuitive visualization of changes to the maxilla and mandible, guiding accurate surgical planning.
The maxilla is repositioned using a multi-piece approach, achieving stable dental occlusion that also accounts
for the functional aspects of the jaw and teeth.
Orthognathic surgery is more than just bone repositioning;
postoperative tooth movement
and changes in occlusion must be considered.
From the very beginning of surgical planning, Reface Dental Hospital ensures procedures are designed
to shorten the post-surgical orthodontic period.
Through this, postoperative orthodontics are coordinated to be minimal,
helping patients
return to daily life quickly.
Prognathism is when a lower jaw is relatively protruded compared to an upper jaw,
causing the mouth and jaw to extend forward.
The dental midline may not align, or the face may appear asymmetrical,
and in severe cases it can be accompanied by functional problems such as temporomandibular joint
disorders, headaches, chewing difficulties, and speech impairment,
making surgical correction necessary.
This is when the bite is normal but only the chin juts out. Only the chin area is
osteotomized to reshape the overgrown chin tip.
In some cases, part of the mandible is cut and moved backward to achieve
proper alignment.
This is a typical prognathism accompanied by malocclusion.
Both the maxilla
and mandible are osteotomized and repositioned
to achieve aesthetic improvement while
simultaneously restoring dental
function.
This is a case where not only the lower jaw but the entire mouth is protruding forward. Both the maxilla and mandible are osteotomized and moved to the correct
positions.
If necessary, a Multi-Piece Surgical Method divides the maxilla or mandible
into several segments so each can be precisely adjusted and moved into the
correct position.

A receded chin refers to a condition in which the mandible is relatively smaller than the maxilla
or is positioned posteriorly, causing the mouth and chin to appear retruded.
The dental midlines may not align, and the face may not appear slender
In severe cases, functional problems such as temporomandibular joint disorder, headache, decreased
masticatory function, and speech impairment may accompany it
requiring orthodontic treatment or surgery.
The overall facial contour is normal, but the tip of the lower jaw (chin) is small or retruded.
The chin bone is cut and moved forward or lengthened to adjust the face's natural proportions.
Not only the chin tip but the whole lower jaw is small or pushed back, causing imbalance across the
jawline; this can affect dental occlusion in addition to aesthetic concerns.
The lower jawbone is osteotomized and advanced as a whole.
When not only the mandible but also the maxilla needs adjustment, the positions of the maxilla and
mandible are adjusted together to correct facial proportions and functional problems simultaneously.
A condition in which the jaw is structurally underdeveloped, potentially accompanied by both
aesthetic and functional problems (masticatory dysfunction, speech disorders, etc.).
Through double-jaw surgery, not only the position of the mandible but also the position and angle of
the maxilla are adjusted together to carry out an overall reconstruction.
In cases of severe bone deficiency, autogenous bone (the patient's own bone) is harvested and
grafted to the jaw area to augment the jawbone.

A long face refers to a condition in which the vertical length of the face is greater than the
horizontal width.
This can make the overall facial proportions appear unbalanced,
In severe cases, masticatory dysfunction, speech problems, and temporomandibular joint discomfort may
occur
May be accompanied by various functional problems,
Surgical correction is often required.
This is when the skeletal structures of both the maxilla and mandible are elongated, causing the
overall facial proportions to be excessively stretched vertically.
Whether to perform maxillary (Le Fort) surgery is determined selectively based on factors such as
the degree of gingival display, dental alignment, and presence of asymmetry.
A condition in which the length of the mandible is abnormally increased, accompanied by malocclusion
and mandibular prognathism.
By adjusting the length and position of the mandible, vertical length can be improved along with
functional restoration of dental occlusion.
Overall occlusion is normal, but the mandibular symphysis (chin) is excessively developed, giving
the face a long appearance.
In this case, only the tip of the mandible is resected and fixed in a normal position to improve
facial length.

Facial asymmetry refers to differences in the form of structures on the left and right sides relative to
the facial midline,
a condition in which position and function are misaligned and symmetry is not maintained.
It can result from congenital skeletal abnormalities or abnormal mastication habits,
and may lead to various functional disorders,
so appropriate orthodontic treatment or surgery is necessary.
This occurs when the lower jaw is shifted to one side, making the entire face appear asymmetric.
The mandibular bone is moved left or right to align the midline, and the chin contour is corrected.
Both the upper and lower jaws have deviated midlines, with dental arches and occlusion also
unbalanced.
Through bimaxillary surgery, the maxilla and mandible are mobilized simultaneously to realign the
facial midline and restore occlusal function.
The overall jaw bones are symmetrical, but only the chin is deviated to one side. Only the chin tip
is moved to the midline to correct it,
and facial asymmetry can be greatly
improved with a relatively simple surgery.
