Maxillofacial Surgery: The Advanced Level of Care You Need for Excellent Results
Surgery that treats problems affecting the structure of the face and jaws is called “maxillofacial” surgery. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons are specially trained to perform a wide variety of maxillofacial procedures, including both functional and aesthetic.
Our surgeons take special interest in treating conditions affecting the jaws and bite. Whether you have a functional problem, such as a bite dysfunction (also known as a “malocclusion”), or you’re interested in changing the appearance of your jawline or chin, our caring doctors have extensive training and years of experience you can rely on. That’s why hundreds of people in Austin and Central Texas have trusted Midtown Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery for their surgical care.
