Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral and Maxillofacial surgery is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on treating diseases, injuries, and defects in the hard and soft tissues of the mouth, jaw, and face. Surgeons in this field are uniquely qualified to perform procedures that range from simple tooth extractions to complex reconstructive facial surgeries.

 

 

Dental Procedures 

Common procedures performed by oral and maxillofacial surgeons include wisdom teeth removal, dental implant placement, bone grafting, corrective jaw surgery, and treatment of oral cancer. 

 

Wisdom Teeth Removal 

Wisdom teeth removal is a common procedure performed by oral and maxillofacial surgeons when the third molars become impacted, infected, or cause crowding and discomfort. The surgical extraction helps to alleviate pain and prevent further dental complications. 

 

Dental Implant Placement 

Dental implant placement involves replacing a missing tooth or teeth with a long-lasting, durable synthetic tooth that mimics the appearance and function of natural teeth. This procedure promotes oral health and restores the aesthetic appeal of the patient's smile.

 

Bone Grafts and Sinus Lifting 

Bone grafting is a procedure employed to enhance the volume of the jaw bone, often in preparation for dental implants. Sinus lifting, on the other hand, is a specific type of bone grafting where the sinus membrane is lifted and bone is added beneath it to create better support for dental implants in the upper jaw.

 

Corrective Jaw Surgery 

Corrective jaw surgery, also known as orthognathic surgery, is performed to correct a range of minor and major skeletal and dental irregularities, including misalignment of jaws and teeth. This surgery helps to improve chewing, speaking, and breathing and may also enhance facial aesthetics.
