										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Comprehensive Oral, Jaw &amp; Facial Surgical Expertise</strong></p>
<p>The Maxillofacial Surgery Unit is a regional leader in diagnosing and treating complex conditions affecting the mouth, jaws, face, and neck. Combining surgical precision with advanced imaging technologies, the unit delivers personalized, outcome-driven care for patients of all ages—whether managing trauma, congenital anomalies, or intricate oral pathologies.</p>
<p>This highly specialized unit brings together <strong>oral and maxillofacial surgeons</strong>, <strong>dental specialists</strong>, <strong>radiologists</strong>, <strong>anesthesiologists</strong>, and <strong>rehabilitation experts</strong>, forming a <strong>multidisciplinary team</strong> dedicated to both function and facial aesthetics. Every case is approached with patient safety, comfort, and long-term success in mind.</p>
<p><strong>Diagnostic Power: Dental Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT)</strong><br />
CBCT technology is central to our diagnosis and surgical planning. Unlike traditional 2D imaging, <strong>CBCT delivers high-resolution 3D images</strong> of the teeth, bones, joints, and soft tissue structures—helping clinicians visualize minute anatomical details and tailor treatment with unparalleled accuracy.</p>
<p><strong>CBCT Imaging Supports:</strong><br />
• Dental implant planning<br />
• Orthodontic assessments<br />
• Surgical mapping for impacted teeth or jaw cysts<br />
• Complex root canal therapy<br />
• Assessment of jaw tumors, deformities, or fractures<br />
• Evaluation of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction<br />
• Reconstructive facial trauma planning<br />
• CBCT scans are fast, painless, and use <strong>low radiation doses,</strong> making them ideal for patients requiring precise imaging without added exposure risk.</p>
<p><strong>Maxillofacial Surgical Services Offered</strong><br />
The unit offers both routine and highly specialized procedures to address medical, functional, and aesthetic concerns. Services include:<br />
<strong>• Facial Trauma Surgery: </strong>Realignment and repair of facial bone fractures due to accidents or injuries.<br />
<strong>• Cleft Lip and Palate Repair: </strong>Corrective surgery for children and adults with congenital orofacial anomalies.<br />
<strong>• Orthognathic (Jaw) Surgery: </strong>Surgical repositioning of jaws to correct misalignment, improve speech, chewing, and facial balance.<br />
<strong>• Oral Pathology and Tumor Resection: </strong>Diagnosis and surgical removal of cysts, benign or malignant tumors of the mouth and jaw.<br />
<strong>• Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Disorders: </strong>Diagnosis and surgical or non-surgical management of jaw joint dysfunction.<br />
<strong>• Dental Implant Surgery: </strong>Precision placement of implants using CBCT-guided protocols for improved fit and integration.<br />
<strong>• Facial Reconstructive Surgery: </strong>Functional and cosmetic restoration following trauma, congenital defects, or cancer surgery.</p>
