Oral Maxillofacial Surgery: Advanced Care for Dental and Facial Conditions
Oral Maxillofacial Surgery (OMS) is a specialized branch of surgery focusing on the diagnosis, surgical treatment, and management of conditions related to the face, mouth, and jaws. At BMC Hospital, our team of highly skilled oral maxillofacial surgeons addresses a wide spectrum of conditions that range from common dental issues to complex facial surgeries. Our state-of-the-art facilities, advanced surgical techniques, and compassionate care make us a trusted partner in your journey toward optimal oral health.
Understanding Oral Maxillofacial Surgery
Oral Maxillofacial Surgery involves the surgical management of conditions affecting the mouth, jaw, and facial structures. It bridges the gap between dentistry and surgery, offering solutions that address both functional and aesthetic issues. Whether it’s treating dental trauma or correcting facial deformities, OMS can dramatically improve a patient’s quality of life by enhancing both oral function and facial aesthetics.
Common Conditions Treated by Oral Maxillofacial Surgery
Wisdom Teeth Removal: Impacted or misaligned wisdom teeth can cause pain, infections, and damage to adjacent teeth. Our surgeons are skilled in removing these teeth, even in complex cases, ensuring a safe and painless process.
Jaw Misalignments (Orthognathic Surgery): Jaw deformities can cause difficulties in chewing, speaking, and breathing. Orthognathic surgery can correct jaw misalignment, improving facial symmetry and restoring proper function.
Dental Implants: Missing teeth can affect both function and appearance. Dental implants provide a long-lasting solution by replacing missing teeth with natural-looking prosthetics anchored to the jawbone.
Facial Trauma: Accidents or injuries can lead to facial fractures or soft tissue damage. BMC’s surgeons are experienced in reconstructive procedures that restore both form and function to the face, addressing fractures in the jaws, cheekbones, and eye sockets.
Cyst and Tumor Removal: The presence of cysts or tumors in the jaw or oral cavity can lead to significant health complications if untreated. Our surgeons use precise surgical techniques to remove these growths while preserving surrounding healthy tissues.
Cleft Lip and Palate Surgery: Congenital conditions like cleft lip and palate can affect a child’s ability to eat, speak, and develop normally. At BMC, we offer specialized surgical interventions to repair these conditions, ensuring the best possible outcomes.
Why Oral Maxillofacial Surgery is Important
Oral Maxillofacial Surgery offers numerous benefits, from restoring normal oral function to improving facial aesthetics. Conditions like jaw misalignment, impacted teeth, or facial trauma can cause chronic pain, difficulties in chewing, and long-term oral health problems. Ignoring these issues can lead to complications such as infections, bone loss, and even airway obstruction.
In cases like cleft lip and palate or significant trauma, timely surgical intervention can be life-changing, especially for children whose speech and growth can be significantly affected without treatment. Additionally, for patients dealing with facial fractures or deformities, OMS can dramatically enhance their appearance, boosting confidence and quality of life.

The Long-Term Benefits of OMS
Oral Maxillofacial Surgery offers long-term solutions to dental and facial problems that cannot be addressed by general dentistry alone. Patients who undergo procedures like jaw correction, tumor removal, or dental implants can experience significant improvements in their quality of life, from enhanced functionality to a boost in self-confidence. Addressing issues early can prevent further complications, reduce pain, and restore normal function more quickly.
For patients who experience facial trauma, timely surgery can minimize scarring, prevent long-term disfigurement, and restore normal facial structure. Corrective jaw surgeries can help patients who suffer from obstructive sleep apnea or speech difficulties, improving their overall health and well-being.
