Reasons Oral Surgeons and Orthodontists Collaborate

Oral surgeons and orthodontists will frequently assist one another with patient care and treatment. This collaboration of these health professionals occurs when a patient’s care requires more than just orthodontics or surgery.

Here are some examples of why situations where oral surgeons work with orthodontists to treat patients;

1. To facilitate your orthodontic treatment by performing exposure of partially erupted or unerupted teeth, extraction of teeth to make space for alignment, removal of extra teeth, placement of orthodontic anchor devices. 
2. Maintain the results of your orthodontic treatment by removal of third molar teeth if there is inadequate space for eruption after orthodontic treatment is complete. 
3. Performing surgery on the jaw bones to align the jaws and teeth in collaboration with your orthodontist to get optimal results when individuals have significant overbites or underbites due to an altered growth pattern.
4. Treating infections of third molar teeth which have come in partially during your orthodontic treatment.
