Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is a surgical specialty focused on diagnosing and treating conditions affecting the mouth, jaws, facial bones, and associated tissues.

Conditions that may require surgical evaluation include facial injuries and fractures, jaw deformities, developmental jaw problems, and other conditions involving the facial skeleton.

The appropriate treatment is determined after clinical examination and the necessary diagnostic imaging.

Facial and Jaw Fracture Treatment

Facial and jaw fractures may occur following accidents, trauma, or direct injuries.

Treatment depends on the location and severity of the fracture, the degree of bone displacement, and whether the teeth, nerves, or surrounding tissues are affected.

Depending on the case, treatment may involve observation, jaw stabilization, or surgical fixation to restore the appropriate position of the facial bones.

Jaw Deformity Surgery

Jaw deformities may affect facial appearance, jaw function, chewing, or dental occlusion.

Evaluation typically involves a detailed clinical examination and assessment of the relationship between the upper and lower jaws, together with appropriate imaging.

When surgery is indicated, a treatment plan is developed according to the type of deformity, functional goals, and the patient's individual condition.

Corrective Jaw Surgery

Orthognathic Surgery is used in selected cases involving significant differences in the relationship between the upper and lower jaws or abnormalities in jaw development.

Corrective jaw surgery may aim to improve jaw function and dental occlusion and may also affect facial balance in appropriate cases.

The need for surgery is determined after evaluating the jaws, teeth, and relevant imaging. Treatment may involve coordination between an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon and an orthodontist.
