Benefits of
Oral and Maxillofacial

Specialist Care

Oral and maxillofacial surgeons are uniquely qualified to handle a wide range of issues related to the face, mouth, and jaws. This means patients can receive comprehensive care for various conditions.

Minimised Risk

Due to their specialized training and experience, oral and maxillofacial surgeons can often perform procedures with a lower risk of complications compared to general practitioners or less specialized providers.

Improved Quality of Life

Many patients experience improved quality of life after undergoing oral and maxillofacial treatment. This can include relief from pain, enhanced speech, better chewing ability, and improved facial appearance.

Modern Techniques

Oral and maxillofacial surgery incorporates the latest advances in technology and techniques, ensuring that patients benefit from cutting-edge care.

Enhanced comfort

Sedation will help you relax, alleviating any anxiety or apprehension associated with dental treatments. Sedation can help you feel more comfortable during dental procedures by reducing discomfort and stress associated with certain procedures.

Reduced Anxiety

During sedation you may also be given a local anaesthetic, which will normally be administered while you are under sedation. If you’re anxious or fearful about dental visits, sedation can make your experience more comfortable and less stressful.

Minimised
gag reflex

If you have a severe gag reflex, sedation can help suppress it, enabling our team to perform procedures more comfortably and with better precision.

Tailored treatment plans

Our dentists and practice team will work closely with you to develop a customised treatment plan that aligns with your individual requirements.

FActs & Questions

Oral and maxillofacial surgeons are trained to address a wide range of conditions, including but not limited to impacted wisdom teeth, facial trauma, corrective jaw surgery, facial deformities, oral pathology (e.g., cysts or tumors), and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. They also perform procedures related to dental implants, bone grafting, and facial cosmetic surgery.

Pain and recovery experiences can vary depending on the type of procedure performed. Your oral and maxillofacial surgeon will discuss pain management options with you, which may include local or general anesthesia. Recovery time also varies; some procedures may only require a few days of rest, while others may take several weeks. It’s important to follow post-operative instructions closely to promote a smooth recovery.
