Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Oral and maxillofacial surgery is a specialized field of dentistry that focuses on diagnosing and treating conditions affecting the mouth, jaw, face, and neck. It includes procedures such as wisdom tooth extraction, dental implants, jaw realignment (orthognathic surgery), facial trauma reconstruction, and treatment of oral cancers. Surgeons use advanced techniques, including 3D imaging and minimally invasive procedures, to ensure precision and faster recovery. This specialty also addresses TMJ disorders, cysts, and congenital abnormalities like cleft lip and palate. Oral and maxillofacial surgery improves both function and aesthetics, enhancing patients’ overall health, comfort, and confidence in their facial and dental structures.
