Permanent tooth replacement solutions using state-of-the-art implant technology
A chin implant (genioplasty) is a cosmetic procedure that is performed for patients who are dissatisfied with the aesthetic appearance of their chin. This dissatisfaction can be for a variety of reasons, such as the chin not being in balance with other facial features or not being as defined as they would like. For patients who are struggling with these frustrations, a chin implant may be an effective solution for achieving the look you need to feel good about your appearance and have more self-confidence. Although commonly used for cosmetic reasons, a chin implant can also be performed to address a severe facial injury. At Lake Norman Oral & Facial Surgery, we offer a full range of oral and maxillofacial surgical procedures, specializing in facial reconstruction, facial surgery, corrective jaw surgery, obstructive sleep apnea, and wisdom tooth removal.

Words cannot express enough, how wonderful, caring and professional Dr. Haigney and his staff are! After being rushed to the Huntersville hospital with an orbital fracture, broken nose and other facial damage, Dr. Haigney rushed me into surgery (on his day off I must add) and corrected all my problems. I only wish all doctors cared as much about their patients and their recovery as Dr. Haigney and his staff did. Thank you so much for everything! Your attention and compassion has helped me make my recovery as comfortable as possible. 5 star service!
