Treatments & Procedure
Facial Trauma Surgery
Treatment for facial and jaw injuries and fractures.
Facial bone fractures can result from sports injuries, falls, or accidents. In order for the face to recover and function correctly, surgery realigns the bones and secures them with tiny plates and screws.
Orthognathic (Jaw Correction) Surgery
Adjusting misaligned jaws to enhance face balance and bite.
Some people have misaligned upper and lower jaws, which can lead to facial imbalance, speech problems, or trouble eating. The jaws are moved into the proper position by orthognathic surgery.
Orthognathic refers to the surgical adjustment of the jaw position.
Dental Implant Surgery
Replacement of lost teeth that is permanent.
Artificial tooth roots, or titanium screws, are inserted into the mandible as dental implants. They resemble natural teeth in appearance and function and support a fixed tooth or bridge.
TMJ Disorder Treatment
Alleviation of clicking, jaw joint discomfort, and trouble opening the mouth.
The joint that joins the mouth to the skull close to the ear is called the temporomandibular joint, or TMJ. When it is injured, chewing issues, headaches, and jaw pain may result. Medication, counseling, or, in extreme situations, surgery, may be used as treatment.
Cleft Lip & Palate Surgery

Some babies are born with a palate or lip opening that impacts their ability to speak and eat. The gap is closed via surgery, allowing the youngster to speak and eat normally.
