Advanced Surgical Orthodontics for Comprehensive Care

Goodman Orthodontics, we are renowned for our commitment to exceptional orthodontic care. That may mean the integration of advanced surgical orthodontics for complex cases. 

Our practice combines corrective jaw surgery with orthodontic treatment options like braces and Invisalign to address severe orthodontic issues effectively.

Our approach to  corrective jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery) involves treating facial bone abnormalities impacting functions such as chewing, speaking, and sleeping. This treatment, combined with orthodontic care, significantly improves facial aesthetics and functionality.

We employ the latest digital imaging technology, ensuring precise treatment planning and efficient surgical outcomes. Our use of modern materials like titanium plates ensures strength and stability, minimizing recovery time and enhancing the overall effectiveness of the surgery.

At Goodman Orthodontics, we are dedicated to providing transformative care, ensuring each patient achieves a healthy, functional, and beautiful smile. If you face challenges that might require surgical intervention, schedule a consultation with us to explore how we can address your needs with our expert care.

What Is Early Dentofacial Orthopedics?

Early dentofacial orthopedics, also known as interceptive orthodontics, is a specialized branch of orthodontics that focuses on guiding facial and jaw development in young children. The goal is to create the ideal conditions for permanent teeth to emerge correctly and develop a proper bite alignment. This early intervention can address issues such as crowded teeth, jaw discrepancies, and other orthodontic concerns, ultimately preventing more severe problems in the future.

The Benefits of Early Dentofacial Orthopedics

Preventative Approach

Early dentofacial orthopedics takes a preventative approach to orthodontic care. By addressing problems at a young age, we can reduce the need for more extensive and invasive treatment later on.

Optimal Facial Growth

This treatment can guide the growth of your child's facial bones and help create the best conditions for the development of their jaw and airway.

Improved Bite and Function

Early intervention can correct bite issues, making it easier for your child to eat, speak, and maintain good oral hygiene.

Enhanced Aesthetics

Dentofacial orthopedics can improve your child's facial appearance by addressing issues such as protruding or receding jaws.

Reduced Treatment Time

Addressing orthodontic concerns early can often lead to shorter overall treatment times when your child is older.

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children have their first orthodontic evaluation by the age of 7. This may seem early, but it’s the ideal time to detect and address any developing issues. By this age, your child will typically have a mix of baby teeth and permanent teeth, making it easier to evaluate their orthodontic needs.
When you bring your child for an early dentofacial orthopedics evaluation, you can expect a comprehensive examination that includes digital scans, x-rays, and a thorough analysis of their dental and facial development. Dr. Bastian will discuss his findings with you, addressing any concerns you may have, and explain the available treatment options.
