What is an Orthognathic Surgery?
Orthognathic surgery (corrective jaw surgery) repositions the upper jaw, lower jaw, or both to correct misalignment, improve bite function, and transform facial balance and profile. It addresses underbites, overbites, open bites, asymmetry, and breathing issues, and produces dramatic, permanent changes to the lower face.
It is a major surgery performed under general anesthesia, usually in a hospital, and typically requires coordinated orthodontic treatment before and after. Recovery is significant — a soft or liquid diet for weeks, swelling that takes months to fully resolve, and final results over 6 to 12 months.
When done for medical reasons like a functional bite problem or sleep apnea, part of the cost may be covered by insurance. A board-certified oral and maxillofacial or plastic surgeon performs it.
How much does an Orthognathic Surgery cost in San Francisco?
Orthognathic surgery in San Francisco typically starts at $28,000 and ranges up to $56,000 or more all-in, depending on whether one or both jaws are operated on and the orthodontic work involved.

What to ask your provider
- Is my case primarily functional, cosmetic, or both — and could insurance cover part of it?
- Are you a board-certified oral/maxillofacial or plastic surgeon experienced in jaw surgery?
- Will I need orthodontics before and after, and who coordinates it?
- Will you operate on one jaw or both, and why?
- What does the quote include, and what is billed separately?
- What does recovery realistically look like for me?
Frequently asked questions
How much does orthognathic surgery cost in San Francisco?
Orthognathic surgery in San Francisco typically starts at $28,000 for single-jaw surgery and ranges to $56,000 or more for double-jaw (bimax) surgery. Orthodontics is usually billed separately. When done for a functional medical reason, insurance may cover part of the cost.
Does insurance cover jaw surgery?
When orthognathic surgery is medically necessary — to correct a functional bite problem, severe jaw discrepancy, or sleep apnea — insurance often covers part of it. Purely cosmetic cases are generally not covered. Your surgeon's office can help determine eligibility.
How long is recovery from orthognathic surgery?
Recovery is significant: a soft or liquid diet for several weeks, swelling that takes a few months to mostly resolve, and final results over 6 to 12 months. Most people take 2 to 4 weeks off work depending on the procedure.
Do I need braces with jaw surgery?
Most orthognathic surgery is coordinated with orthodontic treatment before and after surgery to align the teeth so the jaws fit together correctly. Your surgeon and orthodontist plan this together.
