What are Maxillofacial Surgery & Fracture Management?


Maxillofacial surgery is a specialised field of surgery that involves the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, injuries, and defects of the head, neck, face, jaws, and related structures. This includes a range of surgical procedures such as reconstructive surgery, cosmetic surgery, and trauma surgery.

Fracture management deals with the treatment of fractures and injuries to the bones and soft tissues of the face, jaws, and neck. This may include surgical repair of fractured bones or the use of wires, plates, and screws to stabilise the affected area while it heals.

Maxillofacial surgeons are highly trained specialists who have completed extensive education and training in both medicine and dentistry. They work closely with other medical and dental professionals, such as orthodontists, oral surgeons, and plastic surgeons, to provide comprehensive care for patients with complex facial and oral conditions.
