What is Maxillofacial surgery?

Maxillofacial surgery aims to focus on the diagnoses and treatment for various conditions, injuries, and defects affecting the entire facial structure covering the head, neck, jaw and face. Maxillofacial surgery has also been referred to as the "bridge between medicine and dentistry."

This can include everything from correcting jaw misalignments (orthognathic surgery) to improve chewing and breathing, to reconstructing facial bones after a traumatic accident or removing oral tumors and cysts. Maxillofacial surgery brings surgical expertise, facial aesthetics, and facial functionality together to restore the ability of the patient to speak, eat, and breathe while enhancing facial symmetry.

Key Benefits of Maxillofacial Procedures

Restoration of Function: Major improvements in chewing, speaking, and breathing.
Chronic Pain Relief: Effective treatment for long-term TMJ disorders and facial pain.
Symmetry & Balance: Corrects skeletal imbalances that cannot be fixed by orthodontics (braces) alone.
Trauma Recovery: Expert reconstruction after accidents to return the face to its pre-injury state.

Patient Journey: Preparation to Recovery

Pre-Procedure Checklist

Imaging: High-definition CT scans or OPG (Orthopantomogram) are mandatory for bone mapping.
Orthodontic Phase: For jaw surgery, many patients require braces before the actual procedure takes place.
Health Screening: The evaluation of the overall health of the patient to assess safety under general anesthesia.

Recovery Timeline

Timeframe	What to Expect	Activity Level
Day 1–5	Facial swelling and mild discomfort. Liquid diet is mandatory.	Rest at home; limited talking.

Maxillofacial Surgery in Panipat: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is maxillofacial surgery the same as regular dentistry?

No, because this would be a surgical specialty involving surgical procedures on the bone and soft tissue structures of the face and neck.

Will I need to have jaw surgery followed by wires closing my jaw?

With the new technology of titanium plates, usually, wiring of the jaw is not required, however, elastic bands can sometimes be used for guidance.

Is maxillofacial surgery in Panipat covered by insurance?

Procedures which involve trauma, congenital defects, or functional problems such as sleep apnea may be included, while purely cosmetic alterations may not be.

For how long do I need to follow a liquid diet?

Usually, patients are kept on a liquid diet for the first 2-4 weeks, so as to allow their lower jaw bones to heal and remain stable.

When can I talk normally after a jaw surgery?

You can immediately speak post-surgery, however your voice might be thick for a week, due to swelling and less jaw movement.
