Types of Maxillo facial Surgeries

Orthognathic surgery corrects jaw and facial bone misalignments, such as underbites, overbites, and asymmetrical jaw growth, to enhance both bite function and facial aesthetics.

Facial Trauma Reconstruction

Surgical procedures are employed to repair facial trauma caused by accidents, falls, assaults, or sports injuries, aiming to restore broken facial bones, repair soft tissue damage, and minimize scarring
