Best Maxillofacial Surgeon In Dubai For Oral Surgery

Oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS)  is a branch of surgical dentistry that deals with the diagnosis and surgical treatment of diseases and defects related to the mouth, face, jaws, and neck. The ‘’oral’’ means mouth, teeth, and gums, while the maxillofacial includes upper and lower jaws (maxilla and mandible) and face.

Corrective Jaw Surgery (Orthognathic Surgery)

Corrective jaw procedure mainly treats misaligned or deformed jaws and bite problems due to skeletal or jaw deformities. These anomalies sometimes cause orthodontic issues, including the following: 

• Underbites
• Overbites 
• Jaw Misalignment

Surgical Methods

At Kairon Polyclinic, our expert dental technicians use the latest 3D imaging and perform advanced surgical procedures to correct jaw misalignment and restore facial functions and aesthetics.

• Maxillary Osteotomy (Repositioning the upper jaw) 
• Mandibular Osteotomy (Repositioning the lower jaw)
• Genioplasty (Reshaping chin bone)

Oral surgery sometimes causes swelling, discomfort, and diet modifications that last a few days. Our team provides you with post-operative care for quick functional recovery. 

Cleft Lip And Palate Repair

Cleft lip and palate are both congenital (by birth) defects resulting from an opening between the lip or roof of the month during fetal development. In this condition, surgical repair is necessary to close the openings for proper feeding, speech development, and cosmetic appearance.

Optimal Time For Surgery

Early cleft lip surgery in infancy is necessary, followed by cleft palate procedures for successful rehabilitation. Moreover, comprehensive cleft care requires a multidisciplinary team approach involving surgeons, speech therapists, and psychosocial support for both the child and family.

Facial Trauma (Reconstructive Surgery)

Facial injuries from accidents require reconstructive surgery to restore form and function. We treat soft tissue injuries like abrasions and hematomas, facial and jaw bone fractures, and dental trauma, including tooth displacements and fractures. 

Emergency Treatment and Reconstruction

Facial trauma requires prompt treatment, including patient reassurance, airway stabilization, life-threatening injury treatment, and reconstruction surgeries. Depending upon the severity of the injury, advanced reconstructive methods are used, including the following: 

• Bone Grafting 
• Soft Tissue Reconstruction
• Dental Implants

Maxillofacial Pathology And Tumor Surgery 

The main objective is to diagnose and surgically remove any sort of abnormal growths (teratoma tumor, cysts) present in the mouth (upper palate bump), jaw, and facial regions while preserving the healthy tissues around.

Diagnostics And Staging

To confirm the accurate stage and diagnosis among the suspected oral pathology patients having swollen hard palate, our expert dentists conduct a thorough clinical examination, including: 

• CT Scans 
• MRI 
• Biopsies
• CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography)

We have the latest X-Mind Prime 3D at Kairon Polyclinic dental lab, perfect for dental scans and useful in oral surgery. This system provides clear images of teeth, nerves, and bones in 3D. These images are essential for careful planning and performing oral surgery accurately. It helps check the size and condition of the jawbone, plan for dental implants, look at the sinuses, find teeth that haven’t come in properly, and more.

Surgical Treatment & Rehabilitation

Surgical resection is the treatment of choice for maxillofacial mature teratoma. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, our surgeons treat it with care not to invade the nearby healthy tissue. Post-resection rehabilitation focuses on restoring normal functions and aesthetics using bone transplant and dental prosthetics procedures. 

The recovery time and costs depend on the extent of surgery and the type of rehabilitation required. 

Surgical Dental Extractions (Wisdom Teeth Extraction)

These procedures remove problematic wisdom teeth, as well as severely decayed or fractured teeth (trapped in between bone and gum)  that cannot be extracted through simple dental procedures due to their position or associated complications.

Minimally Invasive Surgical Techniques 

At the maxillofacial surgery clinic, we prioritize minimally invasive surgical methods for wisdom teeth extraction, providing patients with optimal comfort and the fastest recovery. Our team of dentists offers a generalized postoperative care plan that includes the following: 

• Pain management 
• Swelling reduction 
• Bleeding control 
• Oral hygiene 
• Dietary modifications 
• Oral care instructions 
• Follow up appointments

Facial Neuropathies (Facial Nerve Rehabilitation)

Facial nerves provide the primary movement force to the facial muscles, helping with expressions and functions like smiling, blinking eyes, and chewing. Disorders related to these nerves lead to facial paralysis, weakness, and impaired movement.

Diagnostics

At Kairon Polyclinic, we perform the following diagnostic tests to identify the underlying cause:

• Computed Tomography Scan (CT Scan) 
• Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) 
• Electromyography (EMG)

Surgical Procedure

The surgical treatment is based on the cause and severity of the nerve conditions. Some recommended procedures include:

• Nerve Repair (regeneration)
• Nerve Grafting (functional recovery)
• Muscle Transfers (function replacement)
