About Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon Doctors

Conditions Treated by an Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon

Impacted Wisdom Teeth

Third molars that fail to fully emerge due to lack of space, causing pain, infection, or damage to adjacent teeth.

Dental Implants

Titanium screws surgically placed in jawbone to replace missing teeth — the gold standard for tooth replacement.

Jaw Fractures

Broken jaw from road accidents, falls, assault, or sports injuries. Requires surgical fixation for proper healing.

TMJ Disorders

Temporomandibular joint dysfunction causing jaw pain, clicking, and restricted mouth opening.

Oral Cysts and Tumours

Benign or malignant growths in the jaw or soft tissues of the mouth requiring surgical excision.

Oral Surgery Care Tips

  • Don't smoke after oral surgery
  • Follow soft diet instructions after surgery
  • Keep the surgical area clean
  • Take prescribed antibiotics fully

How to Prepare for Oral Surgery

Before Your Visit

  • Complete pre-operative dental X-ray (OPG) or CT scan as requested
  • Inform about all medications — especially blood thinners, which may need to be stopped
  • Follow fasting instructions if general anaesthesia or sedation is planned
  • Arrange transportation home — you should not drive after sedation or general anaesthesia

During the Appointment

  • Local anaesthesia will be given — you will feel pressure but not pain during the procedure
  • Communicate with the surgeon if you feel pain — additional anaesthesia can be given
  • For implant procedures, a surgical guide may be used for precise placement
  • The surgical team will provide post-operative instructions and medications before discharge

After the Visit

  • Bite on gauze for 30-60 minutes after extraction to control bleeding
  • Apply ice packs externally for the first 24 hours to reduce swelling
  • Avoid spitting, using straws, or rinsing vigorously for 24 hours — this prevents dry socket
  • Start gentle salt water rinses after 24 hours and take prescribed antibiotics as directed

Questions to Ask Your Oral Surgeon

  1. 1.Do I really need my wisdom teeth removed?
  2. 2.Will the procedure be under local or general anaesthesia?
  3. 3.What type of implant do you recommend and why?
  4. 4.How long until I can eat normally after surgery?
  5. 5.Is this jaw lump concerning?
  6. 6.What are the risks of nerve damage?
