Maxillofacial surgery is vital for addressing a wide range of medical and dental issues that affect the mouth, jaws, face, and neck. Our specialised team combines expertise in surgery and dentistry to provide comprehensive care for patients with complex needs.
01. Correcting Congenital Deformities:
Maxillofacial surgeons correct congenital deformities like cleft lip and palate, enabling proper function and appearance and the surgery is crucial for improving a child’s ability to eat, speak, and breathe.
02. Treating Trauma and Injuries:
Injuries to the face, such as fractures of the jaw, cheekbones, or eye sockets, require surgical intervention to restore normal function and appearance, ensure proper healing and minimise scarring.
03. Supporting Dental Health:
Maxillofacial surgeons are often involved in the placement of dental implants, especially in complex cases requiring bone grafting or sinus lifts. Removal of impacted teeth is a common procedure to prevent pain.
