The main reason for which people seek orthodontic treatment is the desire to improve dental alignment.
However, many malocclusions are related to a “disharmony” of facial bones and facial aesthetics. Sometimes, a treatment that is limited only to the teeth will only have limited aesthetic results. Correction of dentition alone can also produce a deterioration of facial aesthetics.
An orthodontic and surgical approach, where indicated, allow to shorten treatment times, to obtain better results and to reduce the risk of damaging the teeth.
