Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Penn Nalam

Oral and maxillofacial surgery is an internationally recognised specialty that treats the face, mouth and jaws. Our surgeons care for the whole craniomaxillofacial region, which includes the mouth, jaws, face, skull and the structures around them.

The specialty also handles dental and facial emergencies, including injuries from road accidents, falls, assaults and sports. At Penn Nalam and Aan Nalam, our team treats a wide range of conditions.

Maxillofacial Surgery

Facial Trauma: After road accidents, the facial bones can fracture. The lower jaw is the most commonly broken, followed by the cheekbone, the nose and the upper jaw. Our surgeons work with emergency physicians and plastic surgeons to give immediate care, including securing the airway, controlling bleeding, preventing infection, repairing tissue and setting the fractured bones.

Orthognathic (Jaw Correction) Surgery: When the upper and lower jaws don’t line up, surgery can move them forward or back to improve how you bite, speak and look. It is usually combined with braces to align the teeth.

Wisdom Teeth and Badly Decayed Teeth: Wisdom teeth often get trapped in the bone, causing swelling and pain in the surrounding gum. We offer minimally invasive, gentler tooth removal to make recovery easier.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does an oral and maxillofacial surgeon treat?

Conditions of the mouth, jaws, face and skull, including facial injuries, jaw problems, impacted teeth and head and neck cancers.

What should I do after a facial injury?

Seek emergency care immediately. Keep the airway clear and control any bleeding while you travel. Our team will take over from there.

Is wisdom tooth removal painful?

The procedure is done under anaesthesia, so you shouldn’t feel pain during it. Mild soreness afterwards is normal and manageable.

Is jaw correction surgery only cosmetic

No. It improves biting, chewing and sometimes breathing, along with facial balance.
