Orthognathic surgery in Positive Dental Studio
About the clinic
Orthognathic surgery at Positive Dental Studio in Istanbul, Turkey, helps correct severe jaw alignment issues. The price for this combined orthodontic and surgical treatment typically runs between $2,500 and $3,800. This procedure is ideal for patients with Class I, II, or III malocclusions that cannot be fixed by braces alone.
Treatment Options and Methods
Positive Dental Studio provides three main paths for jaw correction. The choice depends on your aesthetic preferences and the severity of the bite issue. The clinic offers the following options:
- Metal braces combined with surgery may cost around $2,500.
- Ceramic braces, which are tooth-colored for less visibility, run around $2,700.
- Invisalign aligners for Class II and III cases are around $3,800.
Each plan involves an orthodontic phase to align the teeth before the jaw is moved. After the surgery, the orthodontist continues to refine the bite using the chosen braces or aligners.
Specialist Expertise
The orthodontic phase is managed by Dr. İhsan Cemal Melek. Dr. Melek is a specialist in orthodontics with expertise in treating temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. Dr. Melek works closely with maxillofacial surgeons to handle complex orthognathic cases. The clinic team has over 15 years of experience in dental and jaw treatments.
The Surgical Process
The process starts with detailed digital planning and 3D imaging. These tools help the team map out the precise repositioning of the upper or lower jaw. A maxillofacial surgeon then performs the operation to move the jaw into its new position. This surgery improves chewing function, helps with breathing issues, and balances facial features. Most patients require a period of post-operative care where the orthodontist makes final adjustments to the teeth.
If you are struggling with a severe overbite or underbite, you can request a consultation for orthognathic surgery through the Bookimed platform.

Positive Dental Studio: more details about the clinic
Positive Dental Studio is a private multi-specialty dental clinic established in 2011. It operates two branches in Istanbul and Adana. Since opening, the studio has treated over 15,000 patients. The team includes more than 15 specialist dentists. They cover everything from routine cleanings to complex jaw surgeries.
Advanced Dental Specialties
The clinic offers a broad range of dental services through a digital workflow. Specialists use 3D imaging and Digital Smile Design to plan treatments accurately. The facility includes dedicated operating rooms and an observation area for procedures under general anesthesia.
The surgical department performs specialized oral and maxillofacial procedures:
- Orthognathic surgery to correct bite and jaw alignment issues
- Removal of salivary gland stones using local anesthesia or imaging-guided techniques
- Surgical removal of large cysts and tumors with laboratory tissue examination
- Torus surgery to remove bony growths under local anesthetic
- Open joint surgery for complex jaw conditions
Orthodontists join the planning phase for jaw surgeries to ensure proper alignment. For children, the clinic has a dedicated department focused on oral health from infancy through adolescence.
Implantology and Prosthetics
The clinic offers several implant-supported solutions for tooth replacement. Surgeons use surgical guides – patient-specific templates – to place implants at the exact depth and angle. This digital planning reduces risks and improves prosthetic fit.
Prosthetic options available at the branches include:
- All-on-Four fixed full-arch restoration using a titanium bar framework
- Implant-supported zirconia crowns shaped using digital impressions
- Permanent bar-retained prostheses for single-arch replacement
- Full porcelain Empress and E-max crowns for high aesthetic transparency
Patients receive Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) during preparation. This technology makes plaque visible, so cleaning is more precise before surgical stages begin.
Specialized Gum and Root Canal Care
For patients with gum disease, the clinic uses laser gum disinfection and biostimulation. These methods treat periodontitis by reducing bacteria without aggressive surgery. Scaling and root planing often combine with laser therapy to reach deep periodontal pockets.
Endodontic specialists handle complex root canal anatomy for both initial treatments and retreatments. The restorative team focuses on aesthetic bonding and veneers. They prioritize zirconia and full ceramic materials to match the natural color of existing teeth.
Diagnostic and Treatment Technology
The clinic uses digital tools to ensure diagnostic accuracy. CBCT scans provide high-resolution images of the jaw bone for implant planning. Cerec Omnicam technology replaces traditional molds with fast digital impressions.
Additional diagnostic equipment includes:
- DIAGNOCam for early detection of hidden cavities without X-ray radiation
- Panoramic (OPG) and periapical X-rays for baseline assessments
- Electronic axiography for studying jaw movement and joint function
- Florida Probe for computer-assisted measurement of gum health
The facility spans three floors designed for modern equipment and surgical units. Doctors also train other professionals through the clinic's internal academy.
Support for International Patients
The clinic has a dedicated support system for patients visiting from abroad. Staff communicate in English, German, Russian, Arabic, and Turkish. Online booking helps patients coordinate their visit timing.
For those undergoing orthodontic treatment, the clinic provides long-term aftercare instructions. This includes retainers to protect alignment after the active treatment phase ends.
