Oral, Dental and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral, dental and maxillofacial surgery is one of the specialty fields of dentistry that encompasses surgical interventions in diagnostic and treatment processes. In this field, all dental surgical procedures as well as the treatment of pathologies occurring in the facial and jaw regions are performed.

Günümüzde, çene cerrahisinin uygulama alanı oldukça genişlemiş durumdadır. Başlıca uygulamalar arasında cyst surgery of the jawbone, extraction of impacted wisdom teeth, treatment of intraoral soft tissue lesions, temporomandibular joint disorders, jaw fractures ve surgery of intraoral tumours yer alır. Bu işlemler, alanında uzman hekimler tarafından planlanmakta ve özenle uygulanmaktadır.

Cerrahiden Sonra Ne Beklenir?

Thanks to modern surgical techniques, post-procedural pain, swelling and bleeding are generally minimal. With appropriate medication use, cold application and attention to oral hygiene, the healing process usually proceeds without complications. The process is managed in a controlled manner with personalised aftercare recommendations for each patient.

Technological Support and Procedural Conditions

Technology is one of the most important factors influencing outcomes in oral, dental and maxillofacial surgery. Current imaging systems, laser-assisted devices and surgical equipment may help shorten procedure time while improving patient comfort. Minimising tissue trauma during the procedure can contribute positively to the healing process.

What Are the Applications of Oral, Dental and Maxillofacial Surgery?

Tooth Extraction

Tooth extraction may be required due to decay, fracture, periodontal disease or orthodontic indications. In surgical extractions, the procedure is performed with preservation of the soft tissue and bone.

Third Molar (Wisdom Tooth) Surgery

Wisdom teeth that are impacted or unable to align with the jaw structure are surgically removed to prevent damage to the surrounding tissues.

Implant Surgery

Titanium implants placed into the jawbone are used to provide fixed prosthetic restorations in place of missing teeth. This method, which mimics the natural tooth structure, can offer aesthetically and functionally favourable outcomes.

Cyst and Tumour Surgery

Cystic or tumoral lesions developing in the jawbone or soft tissues are surgically excised following radiological evaluation.

Ortognatik Cerrahi

This procedure, applied to correct skeletal discrepancies between the jaws, is planned in conjunction with orthodontic treatment for the management of skeletal problems.

Eklem Treatmentsi

Surgical intervention may be required when conservative treatments are insufficient for complaints such as temporomandibular joint pain, limited mouth opening or joint sounds.

Periodontal Cerrahiler

In the treatment of advanced periodontal disease, gingival reshaping, flap surgery and grafting procedures may be performed.
