What it is

The facial bone fractures are treated both surgically and non-surgically to correct the fractured bones and hold them in the right place in the body as they heal. The method used will depend on the location and severity of the injury, e.g., the nose, cheekbones (Zygoma), eye socket (Orbit), upper jaw (maxilla), and lower jaw (mandible).

The broad guidelines of the treatment are:

• Reduction: Relocating the fractured bone pieces to their original location.
• Fixation: fixing the bones with approaches such as small, biocompatible plates and screws (rigid internal fixation).
• Restoration: Treatment of related cases of dental and soft tissue trauma.

Reasons to choose MaxCare Dental and Implant Clinic

The treatment of facial fractures requires the knowledge of anatomy and the ability to operate with high precision, which only an Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon is capable of. Dr Hemant Kemkar, B.D.S., M.S. (England), is a specialist in this area at the clinic.

• Maxillofacial Surgical Expertise: The specific training of Dr Kemkar in addressing the entire craniofacial complex has no equivalent in complex cases of trauma; Dr Kemkar was also trained to treat the complex traumas that involve the essential structures of the eye socket and the jaw joints.
• Functional Restoration: It is not primarily a restoration of the bone, but rather a restoration of the proper dental occlusion (bite) and facial form, which are essential for eating, speaking, and breathing.
• Modern Technology: High-tech imaging and surgery will be utilised to ensure that everything is planned correctly before the surgeon begins and that the correct anatomical reconstruction is achieved.
