Orthognathic Surgery in Tucson AZ: Dr. Coles | Arizona Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons

If you need orthognathic jaw surgery, the surgeons at Arizona Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons can help. Orthognathic surgery, also known as corrective jaw surgery, is often considered when orthodontic work alone cannot fix a patient’s bite problems. The goal of surgery is to improve the function of the bite, but many patients notice improvements in their overall appearance as well. Most of the time, orthognathic surgery will be a joint effort between you, your orthodontist, and your oral surgeon. The process of having orthognathic surgery almost always involves having braces before surgery and for a short period after. This allows your orthodontist to prepare your teeth for their new alignment and make any fine adjustments after the jaw is repositioned.

Dr. Nicholas Coles is a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon who has been practicing for over 10 years. He decided to pursue oral surgery after being exposed to dentistry through his family. He attended Utah State University for his undergraduate studies. After his undergraduate studies, he attended Creighton University School of Dentistry in Omaha, Nebraska, where he graduated in 2007. Dr. Coles finished a four-year oral and maxillofacial residency program at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center. This hands-on oral surgery training program gave him real-world experience working with patients and performing procedures. After completing his residency program in 2012, he began practicing with Dr. Wood at Arizona Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons.
