Innovative Distraction Osteogenesis for Jaw Correction
Distraction osteogenesis is a specialized surgical procedure used to lengthen and reshape bones, often in the jaw, to correct deformities or address issues with bone deficiencies. At Diablo Oral Surgery & Implant Center in Concord, we offer this advanced treatment to help patients achieve proper jaw alignment and facial symmetry. By gradually encouraging new bone growth in a controlled manner, distraction osteogenesis allows for a more natural correction, reducing the need for more invasive surgeries. Our experienced team ensures a personalized, comfortable experience for every patient undergoing this transformative procedure.

Who Typically Needs Distraction Osteogenesis?
This procedure is commonly used for individuals with congenital facial deformities, jaw deficiencies, or trauma-related bone loss. It is often recommended for patients who require significant changes to the size or shape of their jaw but prefer a less invasive approach than traditional bone grafts or reconstructive surgery. Children born with craniofacial abnormalities, such as cleft palate, and adults with severe jaw misalignment or underdeveloped jaws may benefit from distraction osteogenesis to improve both function and appearance.
