What this covers
This is the structural work — how the upper and lower jaws relate to each other and to the face — rather than the alignment of teeth alone.
It includes growth guidance in children, bite correction in teens and adults, and complex cases planned alongside oral and maxillofacial surgeons if surgery is part of the plan.
How complex surgical cases are planned
Complex cases begin with records: imaging, scans, photographs, and models that let the whole picture be studied and evaluated rather than guessed at.
Dr. Khan plans the orthodontic sequence and coordinates directly with your surgeon or specialist so the steps line up. Her background in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics, and her treatment of surgical cases at Loma Linda where she serves as clinical faculty, is the reason these cases are welcomed here rather than referred out.
