Types of Maxillofacial Surgeries

  • Orthognathic Surgery

    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

  • Dental Implant Surgery

    Dental implants are surgically inserted into the jawbone to replace missing teeth, following an assessment of bone density, oral health, and anatomical suitability for implant placement.

  • Treatment for Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Disorders

    Maxillofacial surgeons employ various treatment approaches, including medication, physical therapy, and minimally invasive techniques, to alleviate symptoms and restore normal jaw function in individuals with abnormal temporomandibular joints.

  • Cleft Lip and Palate Repair

    Collaborating with multidisciplinary teams, maxillofacial surgeons perform corrective surgeries to close clefts, improve speech, normalize eating patterns, and enhance facial aesthetics
