Our oral surgeons provide treatments for both aesthetic and functional issues. This includes surgical procedures for jaw fractures, cysts, and impacted teeth that are difficult to erupt.

Oral surgery plays a crucial role in restoring oral and jaw health. Our specialized care focuses on effective pain relief, precise jaw corrections, and significantly improving overall oral function and well-being.

What is Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery?

Oral and maxillofacial surgery is a specialized field within dentistry focused on the diagnosis and treatment of complex conditions affecting the mouth, jaw, and face. These surgical procedures can be both medical and aesthetic in nature, addressing a wide range of issues such as:

Jaw and Dental Issues: Corrections for jaw fractures, bone irregularities, and impacted teeth.
Facial Trauma: Treatments for injuries caused by accidents or medical conditions.
Congenital Defects: Surgery for cleft lip and palate to improve both function and appearance.
Dental Implants: Replacement of missing teeth using advanced implant techniques.

Oral and maxillofacial surgery offers not only functional benefits, such as pain relief and improved chewing ability, but also contributes to a beautiful and balanced smile.

Applications of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral and maxillofacial surgery is a broad specialty that addresses a variety of medical conditions and diseases affecting the mouth, teeth, jaw, and face. The main areas of application include:

Jaw and Dental Issues
Surgical interventions for jaw bone problems, tooth fractures, and joint disorders. This also includes the removal of impacted wisdom teeth and jaw corrections to improve both function and aesthetics of the mouth.

Facial Pain and Salivary Gland Diseases
Treatment of chronic facial pain and disorders of the salivary glands that may cause swelling, infection, or other discomforts.

Congenital Anomalies
Surgery to correct congenital defects such as cleft lip or palate, improving both functional and aesthetic aspects of the mouth and face.

Surgical Treatment of Wisdom Teeth

Wisdom teeth often cause discomfort due to lack of space or improper positioning. They sometimes remain impacted or partially impacted, which can lead to pain, swelling, and even inflammation or cysts in the jaw.

What Are Impacted Wisdom Teeth?
Impacted wisdom teeth are teeth that cannot properly erupt into the mouth, often due to insufficient space. This can result in pain, swelling, and limited mouth opening. In some cases, these teeth can form cysts, which may lead to further health complications.

Why Is Removal Necessary?
Even if impacted wisdom teeth do not cause pain or swelling, they can damage adjacent teeth or increase the risk of jaw problems. It is essential to surgically remove these teeth to prevent further complications, such as misalignment or infections.

Jawbone and Tooth Treatments

Oral surgery plays a crucial role in restoring damaged jawbones and teeth, significantly improving oral function and aesthetics. Treatments include, among others:

Removal of Impacted Teeth
When wisdom teeth or other teeth cannot properly erupt into the mouth, they may cause discomfort and pain. These teeth, also known as impacted teeth, often require surgical removal. Our oral surgeons perform these procedures with great precision, carefully restoring the mouth’s structure and preventing potential complications.

Additionally, these treatments help maintain overall oral health and prevent further damage to adjacent teeth and the jawbone.

Jaw Fractures and Corrections
Jaw fractures or misalignments can disrupt oral function and cause pain or discomfort. Oral surgery is used to realign the jaw, restoring overall oral function and aesthetics.

Dental Implants
In case of tooth loss, dental implants can be an excellent solution. Oral surgery enables the successful placement of dental implants, restoring the mouth’s structure and improving aesthetics.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery for Congenital Anomalies

Oral and maxillofacial surgery plays a crucial role in treating congenital anomalies, such as cleft lip and palate. These conditions can affect not only oral function but also a person’s aesthetics and self-confidence.

Cleft Lip and Palate
Cleft lip and palate can cause significant functional and aesthetic challenges. Besides physical reconstruction, the treatment also focuses on improving the patient’s self-confidence and quality of life. Surgeons collaborate with other healthcare professionals to achieve the best possible outcomes, resulting in an enhanced quality of life for the patient.

Dental Implants and Jaw Surgery

Dental implants are titanium screws surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. This process requires precise planning and execution to ensure a successful and long-lasting solution for tooth loss.

Placement of Dental Implants
When placing dental implants, it is essential to carefully analyze the jaw structure. Oral surgeons use advanced technologies and techniques to determine the optimal placement, which is crucial for restoring oral function and improving aesthetics. A well-placed dental implant provides a durable solution for missing teeth and ensures an aesthetically pleasing smile.

Advanced Surgical Treatments

Oral and maxillofacial surgery utilizes the latest technologies to ensure highly precise and safe procedures. Thanks to innovations such as laser technology, 3D imaging, and microscopic techniques, surgeons can perform treatments with great accuracy, resulting in faster recovery times and fewer postoperative complications.

Innovations in Surgery
With the advent of advanced technologies, surgeons can now perform a wider variety of procedures with lower risks and less pain for the patient. For example, laser technology is used for cutting and coagulating tissues, while 3D imaging assists in planning complex surgeries and enhancing precision during treatment. Microscopic techniques enable surgeons to treat small structures in the mouth and jaw with unprecedented accuracy.

Benefits of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral and maxillofacial surgery offers both functional and aesthetic benefits. The treatment helps resolve oral and jaw problems, leading to a healthier mouth and an improved smile.

Health and Aesthetics
By providing the right treatments, oral and maxillofacial surgeons not only improve oral health but also ensure a beautiful and natural smile. Moreover, healthy jaw function can contribute to better speech, breathing, and digestion.
