Important Residency Notice: This advanced surgical orthodontic treatment plan requires continuous, highly synchronized monthly clinical adjustments over a span of 18 to 36 months. Consequently, this program is exclusively designed for long-term residents, expatriates, or individuals legally working in Thailand, and is not structurally viable for short-term tourists. Rest assured, we offer the exact same transparent local price packages for all qualified residents.

What is Orthodontic Treatment Combined with Jaw Surgery?

Orthodontic treatment combined with jaw surgery, clinically referred to as Orthognathic Surgery, is a comprehensive dual-disciplinary treatment that integrates advanced dental alignment with corrective skeletal repositioning. This procedure is indicated for patients with deep skeletal jaw discrepancies and severe malocclusions that exceed the boundaries of standalone orthodontic therapy. Successful treatment relies on a meticulously calibrated clinical partnership between a certified orthodontic specialist and an expert oral and maxillofacial surgeon across all preparatory and stabilizing phases.

Clinical Management Policy: CDC Dental solely manages the pre-surgical and post-surgical orthodontic alignment and stabilization phases of your treatment plan, while fully coordinating the operative logistics with our hospital-based surgical partners. Please be formally advised that we do not accept standalone surgical coordination requests for patients intending to complete their orthodontic follow-ups or adjustments outside our Bangkok clinics.

Regular Orthodontics vs. Surgical Orthodontics: The Core Differences

Standalone orthodontics safely manages the structural movement of teeth but cannot reshape an underlying malpositioned skeletal jaw base. When severe structural skeletal discrepancies are present, a dual-disciplinary protocol combining the expertise of an orthodontist and a maxillofacial surgeon becomes clinically necessary.

Regular Standalone Orthodontics

●

Focuses entirely on shifting and aligning teeth to optimize the dental occlusion.

●

Indicated for alignment issues completely independent of developmental bone discrepancies.

Orthodontics Combined with Jaw Surgery

●

Corrects tooth positions while structurally modifying the underlying basal jaw alignment.

●

Indicated for severe facial asymmetries or deformities outside the functional limits of dental movement.

Clinical Signs Indicating a Need for Jaw Surgery Bangkok, Thailand

Orthodontic Fee Terms & Conditions
Orthodontic fees are administered as a "capped total budget" split across structured clinic installments. Once your full installment contract is paid, no extra monthly fees are charged even if the alignment extends past the timeline. Should the teeth align perfectly ahead of contract schedules, the remaining installment balance must be settled in full prior to bracket debonding. This financial contract completely excludes advanced skeletal expansion appliances or skeletal anchorage elements (such as mini-screws/TADs), which your specialist will specify if needed. Operative room fees and secondary hospital diagnostics (CBCT, Sleep Tests) depend entirely on current hospital-specific schedules.

LINE Budget Plan

WhatsApp Budget Plan

Comprehensive Treatment Timeline ~ 18-36 Months

Primary Consultation & Diagnostic Setup
Joint diagnostic evaluations with your orthodontist and surgeon. Digital X-rays, intraoral scans, photo records, and a 3D CBCT scan are gathered to forge a unified plan.

~12-18 Months · Pre-Surgical Alignment Phase
Brackets are used to align teeth into optimal position within each jaw. Your malocclusion/underbite may temporarily appear slightly more prominent during this decompensating phase; this is expected protocol.

Operative Stage · Corrective Jaw Surgery
Takes approximately 4 to 8 hours under general anesthesia with a 1-3 night hospital stay. All structural incisions are performed intraorally, preventing any visible facial scarring.

Post-Surgical Fine-Tuning Phase ~ 6-12 Months
An accelerated bone-remodeling phase occurs post-op. Your orthodontist will utilize this window for rapid orthodontic detailing via closely spaced checkups.

Treatment Completion · Retention
Removal of brackets followed by systematic wearing of structured retainers to secure long-term positional stability.

Advanced Protocol: "Surgery First" Approach (SFOA)

For clinically qualifying dental profiles, CDC Dental offers an advanced "Surgery First" protocol. Jaw repositioning is carried out right at the initial stage or within 1-2 months of appliance bonding, delivering immediate facial harmony without waiting for extended pre-surgical braces phases.

✓ Corrective jaw surgery is executed first, followed directly by orthodontic detailing

✓ Immediate facial and profile transformation from phase one

✓ Trims roughly 6 to 12 months off overall clinical treatment timelines

✓ Leverages accelerated regional post-op tooth movement

*Requires rigorous evaluation by our specialized team; not universally applicable to all structural cases.

Frequently Asked Questions: Jaw Surgery Bangkok, Thailand

How do I choose the best clinic for orthodontic jaw surgery bangkok, thailand?

The foundational key is prioritizing clinical facilities with dedicated, board-certified orthodontic specialists working alongside an established oral and maxillofacial surgeon network. At CDC Dental, our highly trained english speaking dentist and team orchestrate the total pre- and post-operative alignment steps, directly communicating with premium institutions like Mahidol University Dental Hospital. Our centralized facilities span across BTS Saphan Khwai and Lat Phrao 109 (adjoining the Yellow Line).

What is the comprehensive cost of orthodontic jaw surgery with Mahidol coordination?

Our transparent localized pricing framework divides the fees cleanly into 3 parts: primary preparation diagnostics at 3,500 THB (~$100 USD), the fixed comprehensive orthodontic contract at 78,000 THB (~$2,230 USD split across 18 flexible monthly installments), and institutional operating room/surgeon fees at Mahidol University Dental Hospital or network medical centers ranging from 150,000 to 310,000 THB (~$4,300-$8,850 USD) depending on case complexity. Cumulative estimates run from 231,000 to 391,000 THB (~$6,600-$11,200 USD). Feel free to view our complete structural fee table here.

Can I book my jaw surgery through CDC Dental but finish my braces back in my home country?

No, we do not support standalone surgery coordination. Because structural jaw repositioning radically transforms the bite layout, achieving clinical success requires our english speaking dentist and team to continuously align, prepare, and fine-tune the occlusion directly with the surgeon from day one until completion. We do not take on short-term international tourists seeking a rapid one-off surgery without undergoing our full long-term pre- and post-op orthodontic supervision in Bangkok.

Are orthognathic and corrective jaw surgeries inherently dangerous?

Corrective jaw repositioning is classified as a major surgical procedure under general anesthesia and carries standard surgical risks, such as temporary minor nerve numbness near the lower lip or routine bleeding. However, when conducted by highly specialized, credentialed oral surgeons in accredited medical facilities backed by 3D computational diagnostics, the risk of severe long-term clinical complications remains exceptionally low.

How much pain should I expect during post-op recovery, and what is the timeline?

The operating stage is fully covered under deep general anesthesia, ensuring zero pain. Post-op swelling and bone soreness peak within the first 1-3 days but are safely managed via prescriptive pain control regimens. Expect a routine hospital stay of 1-3 nights, followed by a dedicated soft or liquid diet phase extending roughly 4 to 6 weeks.

What happens if I decline jaw surgery and force a regular braces-only treatment?

When deep skeletal imbalances exist, bypassing surgical correction to treat via regular braces alone can push teeth outside their healthy biological bone support. This compromise often leads to unharmonious facial profiles, rapid tooth wear, severe root exposure, or highly unstable bites prone to rapid relapse. Our orthodontic specialists provide diagnostic models to show you the safest options.
