Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
Comprehensive, evidence-based care delivered by experienced specialists using advanced medical technology.
BOOK APPOINTMENTAbout the Department
Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery at Nano Hospitals focuses on the diagnosis and surgical treatment of conditions affecting the mouth, jaws, face, and related structures. This specialty bridges dentistry and medical surgery, managing both functional and facial concerns.
Problems in this area may arise from impacted teeth, facial injuries, jaw misalignment, infections, tumors, or congenital deformities. These conditions can affect chewing, speaking, breathing, and facial appearance. At Nano Hospitals, care is directed toward restoring oral function, relieving pain, correcting structural problems, and improving facial balance.
Treatment follows a patient-centred approach using detailed imaging, surgical planning, anesthesia expertise, and post-operative rehabilitation. Care plans are individualised based on age, severity, and functional needs.
Overview of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
This specialty deals with surgical conditions of the teeth, jaws, facial bones, and oral tissues. Early signs such as persistent jaw pain, difficulty opening the mouth, facial swelling, or impacted teeth should be evaluated promptly.
Nano Hospitals emphasises accurate imaging, minimally invasive techniques where possible, and coordinated care with dental, ENT, and oncology teams when required.
