Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

As a highly specialized field, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (OMFS) bridges the gap between dentistry and medicine. An oral and maxillofacial surgeon diagnoses and treats diseases, injuries, and defects involving the hard and soft tissues of the head, neck, face, and jaws. This includes a wide range of procedures, from routine wisdom tooth removal and dental implant placement to complex reconstructive and cosmetic surgeries. It is a surgical specialty that requires dual qualification in both dentistry and medicine, providing a unique and comprehensive skill set for managing conditions that affect the entire facial region.
