Birbe Clinic, dedicated to orthognathic surgery in Barcelona
The face is the mirror of our identity, so feeling comfortable with it is synonymous with greater self-esteem and self-confidence. Some people suffer from facial alterations that do not allow them to have an optimal balance between the bones of their face. This is where orthognathic surgery in Barcelona that we offer at our clinic comes into play. In this article, we will tell you much more about this treatment.
To achieve a change in a patient’s facial structure, it is necessary to correct the position of the upper maxillary bone and the jaw. Therefore, by carrying out this modification, the existing dento-cranio-maxillofacial deformities will be corrected, achieving a harmony in the face, perfect for the patient! A harmony that will not only benefit facial aesthetics, but will also improve different functions of the organism, such as breathing, swallowing, digestion and diction, among others.
Jaw surgery in Barcelona and orthodontic treatment in our hands
On some occasions, especially in cases where the position of the jaw is affected and causes occlusion and bite problems, orthodontic treatment must be carried out before and after the operation. This allows us to achieve bone stability. This is why we work hand in hand with the best orthodontists in Barcelona, to achieve magnificent results.
Therefore, both the intervention and the orthodontic treatment allows us to obtain great results, such as achieving correct dental occlusion; correcting facial disproportions and improving facial aesthetics; and increasing the diameter of the airway.

What are the phases of orthognathic surgery, before and after?
Before surgery, orthodontic treatment is necessary for a period of time so that the teeth are in the correct position and aligned and can then fit together when the jaws are repositioned. However, beforehand, a study will be carried out to analyze the facial structure and decide which treatment is the most suitable to achieve the best results. Virtual Surgical Planning (VSP) allows us to perform the surgery virtually on the computer, analyze the planning and once the movements have been optimized, print surgical splints that allow us to faithfully reproduce the previously planned movements. You will also be able to see your surgery before it is performed so that you will understand perfectly the need to carry out certain orthognathic movements.
In some cases, Surgery First protocol can be applied. That means there will not be any presurgical orthodontic treatment. The orthodontic treatment is concentrated in the postoperative phase. One of the benefits of this protocol is that it usually can shorten significantly the total treatment time.
During the operation, the position, and size of the maxillary bones will be modified. The surgery will be performed under general anesthesia, and the patient will be hospitalized for only 24 to 48 hours, as the techniques used are minimally invasive and without external scars.
The patient will have to follow the post-surgical orthodontic treatment, so that the final details of the occlusion can be retouched. At the end, retention appliances will be placed to prevent the teeth from moving over time.
How is the recovery from orthognathic surgery in Barcelona?
As it is a swift recovery treatment, the patient must return to their routine 10–15 days after the operation. During the first month, the patient must follow a liquid to soft diet that allows him/her to eat without having to force the jaw.
How much does orthognathic surgery cost?
The price of this surgery will depend on each case. Depending on the patient's condition, orthodontic treatment will be shorter or longer, and the surgery will be more or less complicated. The estimate will be made once the diagnosis has been made and is personalized for each patient.
