Mayo Clinic's approach
- Teamwork. With Mayo Clinic's comprehensive and coordinated approach to care, a skilled team cares for you from diagnosis to surgical treatment and recovery.
- Advanced technology. Three-dimensional CT scanning, computer-guided treatment planning and temporary orthodontic anchoring devices help in the movement of teeth so you spend less time in braces. Sometimes jaw surgery isn't needed after this process.
- Research. Mayo Clinic researchers continue to study new ways to correct jaw conditions.
