What to Expect During a Jaw Surgery Consultation

Getting ready for jaw surgery starts with a thorough jaw surgery consultation. At Oral Surgery Specialists of Oklahoma, we guide you through each step so you feel informed and comfortable. The consultation is the first important step toward improving your bite, smile, and comfort.

During your visit, your oral surgeon will review your medical and dental history. This is a great time to discuss any pain, jaw clicking, difficulty chewing, or breathing issues you’ve been experiencing. If you’re already seeing a dentist or orthodontist, we’ll work closely with them to understand your treatment plan. Learn more about the procedure on our jaw surgery page.

We’ll take X-rays, 3D scans, and impressions of your teeth and jaws. These tools help us diagnose the problem and plan the best approach for surgery. You’ll get a detailed explanation of the type of jaw surgery you need and what to expect before, during, and after the procedure.

Many patients worry about pain and recovery. We’ll explain anesthesia options, how long healing will take, and what steps to follow after surgery. We’ll also answer all your questions about eating, working, and resuming normal activities.

Your jaw surgery consultation also helps us create a custom plan for your comfort and recovery. Whether it’s correcting an underbite, overbite, or jaw misalignment, we’ll provide a clear roadmap for your treatment.

Oral Surgery Specialists of Oklahoma has years of experience performing jaw procedures with excellent outcomes. You’re in skilled hands every step of the way.
