Dental surgery & maxillofacial

What is it?

Dental surgery and maxillofacial surgery are specialized branches of dentistry that deal with surgical procedures involving the teeth, jaw, mouth, and facial structures.

• Dental Surgery includes procedures such as tooth extractions, removal of impacted wisdom teeth, treatment of oral cysts, apicoectomy (removal of the tip of a tooth’s root), and placement of dental implants. The goal is to restore oral function, eliminate pain, and prevent further complications.
• Orthognathic (Jaw) Surgery is a more advanced form of maxillofacial surgery that corrects jaw deformities, misalignments, and abnormalities of facial structure. This surgery not only improves chewing and speaking ability but also enhances overall facial aesthetics and balance.
Together, these treatments focus on improving both oral health and facial harmony.
