Maxillofacial Surgery
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is a specialized field of dentistry that focuses on the diagnosis and surgical treatment of diseases, injuries, and defects affecting the mouth (oral cavity), jaws (maxilla and mandible), face, and neck. This field bridges the gap between dentistry and medicine, requiring both dental and medical expertise. At The Dental Clinic, we have a well-equipped operating theater for procedures performed under general anesthesia, along with 24/7 indoor facilities.
