Orthognathic Surgery (Jaw Alignment Surgery) In Chennai
Orthognathic surgery, or corrective jaw surgery, is designed to fix jaw misalignment, improve function, and enhance facial balance. It begins with a detailed consultation, including scans, X-rays, and a discussion of your concerns. You’ll work with both an orthodontist and a surgeon to create a treatment plan. If you’re already wearing braces, that’s part of the preparation to align your teeth before surgery. Orthognathic Major Surgery is available at Best Dental Clinic – Dr N Deenadayalan T Nagar, Chennai and Dr Julian’s Laser Dental Clinic, Tambaram Chennai.
Pre-surgical braces help position your teeth so they align properly after your jaw is repositioned. The surgery itself is done under general anesthesia and usually takes 2 to 4 hours. The surgeon moves the jaw bones into the correct position and secures them with small plates and screws—all through the inside of the mouth, leaving no visible scars.
Recovery involves swelling, discomfort, and a soft or liquid diet for a few weeks. Most people return to light activities in 1–2 weeks, with full healing in 2–3 months. After surgery, braces are usually kept on for a short time to refine the bite. This surgery helps relieve jaw pain or tension, correct misaligned bites, ease difficulty with chewing or speaking, treat sleep apnea, and improve facial appearance—restoring long-term balance, comfort, and confidence.
Orthognathic Maxilla (Upper Jaw Surgery) in Chennai
Maxillary orthognathic surgery, also known as a LeFort I Osteotomy, is performed to correct issues with the upper jaw. This procedure is essential for patients whose upper jaw is significantly receded, protruded, or positioned too high or too low.
When is it needed?
-
Receded Upper Jaw: To bring the jaw forward and provide better mid-face support.
-
Gummy Smile: To move the upper jaw upward, reducing the amount of gum tissue visible when smiling.
-
Open Bite: To close the gap between the upper and lower teeth so they meet properly when the mouth is closed.
-
Crossbite Correction: To widen or reposition the upper arch for better alignment.
The Procedure: The surgeon makes incisions inside the mouth to access the maxillary bone. The jaw is carefully cut, repositioned according to the pre-planned digital design, and secured with tiny, biocompatible titanium plates and screws.
Orthognathic Mandible (Lower Jaw Surgery) in Chennai
Mandibular orthognathic surgery, often called a Bilateral Sagittal Split Osteotomy (BSSO), is used to correct a lower jaw that is either too prominent (underbite) or too receded (overbite/weak chin).
When is it needed?
-
Prognathism (Underbite): To move the lower jaw backward so the lower teeth sit correctly behind the upper teeth.
-
Retrognathism (Overbite): To move the lower jaw forward, improving the chin profile and bite function.
-
Asymmetry: To shift the lower jaw to the left or right, correcting a crooked or lopsided appearance.
-
Sleep Apnea: To bring the lower jaw forward and open the airway for better breathing at night.
The Procedure: The lower jaw bone is split lengthwise behind the molars. This allows the tooth-bearing part of the jaw to slide forward or backward as a single unit. Once the ideal position is achieved, it is secured with internal hardware that remains permanently under the gums.
Cleft Lip and Palate Surgery In Chennai
Cleft lip and palate Major Surgery are common congenital conditions where the upper lip or roof of the mouth doesn’t fully form during early pregnancy. A cleft lip appears as a visible gap in the upper lip, while a cleft palate involves an opening in the roof of the mouth, affecting feeding, speech, and hearing.Some children may have both. Early treatment is crucial to avoid issues like feeding difficulties, delayed speech, frequent ear infections, dental problems, and social challenges.
Surgery offers effective treatment, restoring both function and appearance. Cleft lip repair is typically done between 3 to 6 months of age, while cleft palate repair usually occurs between 11 to 18 months—before major speech development.
Each child’s care is customized by a cleft team that may include surgeons, orthodontists, speech therapists, and pediatricians. Cleft lip and palate Major Surgery is performed at Best Dental Clinic – Dr N Deenadayalan T Nagar, Chennai and Dr Julian’s Laser Dental Clinic, Tambaram Chennai.
Genioplasty - Major-Surgery In Chennai

Early detection and a personalized treatment plan significantly improve outcomes.

Diagnosis begins with a thorough exam, biopsy of suspicious lesions, imaging (CT, MRI, or PET), endoscopy, and sometimes blood tests or HPV screening.Once diagnosed and staged, a treatment plan is tailored to balance effective care with quality of life.
Treatment options include surgery to remove the tumor while preserving vital functions, radiation therapy (alone or with surgery/chemotherapy), chemotherapy, and newer targeted or immunotherapies for specific cases.
Post-treatment care involves rehabilitation, speech therapy, nutrition, dental support, and regular monitoring. Warning signs include a non-healing sore in the mouth or tongue, persistent hoarseness, a lump in the neck, difficulty swallowing or breathing, unexplained weight loss, and unexplained mouth pain or bleeding. If any of these symptoms last more than a few weeks, prompt evaluation is essential.
Hair Implantation (Hair Transplant) In Chennai
Hair implantation, or hair transplant,Major Surgery is a permanent solution for individuals dealing with hair thinning, receding hairlines, or bald patches. It involves transferring healthy hair follicles from a donor area—typically the back or sides of the scalp—to the thinning or balding regions.
This procedure is most effective for those with male or female pattern baldness, a receding hairline, or hair loss due to injury or previous surgeries. It may not be ideal for those with total baldness or insufficient donor hair. Hair implantation Major Surgery procedures are available at Best Dental Clinic – Dr N Deenadayalan T Nagar, Chennai and Dr Julian’s Laser Dental Clinic, Tambaram Chennai.
There are two main techniques: FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction), where individual follicles are transplanted with minimal scarring, and FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation), where a strip of hair-bearing skin is used to harvest grafts—ideal for covering larger areas.
The process begins with a consultation to assess your scalp and plan graft placement. The procedure itself takes 4–8 hours under local anesthesia, and patients can return home the same day. Mild swelling or scabbing may occur, but most people resume regular activities within a week.
Transplanted hair sheds in the first month, with new growth starting around 3–4 months. Noticeable improvement appears by 6 months, and full results are seen in 9–12 months. The result is natural-looking, permanent hair regrowth, boosting both appearance and confidence.
