The type of doctor you should go to for jaw problems depends on the specific issue you are experiencing. Generally, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon or an orthodontist would be the best specialists to see for jaw and facial problems.
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon
An oral and maxillofacial surgeon specializes in surgery of the mouth, face, and jaws. They can diagnose and treat a variety of conditions, including jaw alignment issues, temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ), facial trauma, and jaw tumors.
Orthodontist
An orthodontist specializes in correcting irregularities in the teeth and jaw. They can diagnose and treat malocclusion, or bad bite, and other problems with the jaw, such as overbites, underbites, and crossbites. Orthodontists can also provide treatments such as braces and aligners to help correct jaw issues.
