Oral and maxillofacial surgery focuses on the diagnosis and surgical treatment of selected conditions involving the mouth, jaws, facial bones and surrounding tissues. These may include facial injuries, jaw abnormalities, oral lesions and complex dental surgical problems.
Evaluation within this speciality may involve clinical examination, dental imaging and other investigations according to the condition being assessed. The choice of surgical or non-surgical treatment depends on anatomical findings, symptoms and overall medical health.
Dr. Khambay is associated with Fortis Hospital, Mulund, where patients may seek specialist oral and maxillofacial surgical consultation. The individual operations currently available should be confirmed with the hospital.
Oral and maxillofacial surgery consultation evaluates conditions affecting the mouth, jaws, facial bones and associated tissues. Assessment may involve clinical examination and imaging. Treatment depends on the diagnosis and may involve medical management or surgery for selected conditions.
Impacted wisdom teeth are teeth that cannot emerge normally because of limited space or abnormal positioning. Surgical removal may be considered when they cause pain, infection or damage to nearby structures. Evaluation often includes dental imaging to assess tooth and nerve position.
Jaw fractures may occur after falls, road accidents or facial trauma. Treatment aims to restore alignment, bite function and bone healing. Depending on fracture severity, management may involve stabilisation or surgical fixation using plates and screws.
Facial trauma reconstruction addresses injuries affecting facial bones and soft tissues. Surgical treatment may be required to restore structure and protect functions such as chewing and eye movement. Planning depends on fracture patterns and associated injuries.
Oral and jaw cysts may develop around teeth or within the jawbone. Some require surgical removal or other management to prevent growth and damage to surrounding structures. Treatment depends on the cyst type, size, location and examination findings.
Jaw lesions may be related to cysts, infections, benign growths or other conditions. Evaluation can include imaging and tissue sampling when needed. Treatment depends on the diagnosis and may involve monitoring, medication or surgical management.
Temporomandibular joint disorders affect the jaw joint and surrounding muscles, potentially causing pain, clicking or difficulty opening the mouth. Management often begins with conservative measures, while selected structural problems may need specialist procedures.
Corrective jaw surgery, also called orthognathic surgery, treats selected jaw alignment abnormalities affecting chewing, facial structure or other functions. It generally requires coordinated orthodontic and surgical planning. Treatment depends on skeletal anatomy and individual functional needs.
Oral soft tissue surgery addresses selected abnormalities involving the gums, lips, cheeks and other tissues inside the mouth. Procedures may include biopsy or removal of benign lesions. The approach depends on the lesion's characteristics and clinical diagnosis.
Severe dental infections can spread into surrounding facial tissues and may require urgent treatment. Surgical drainage or removal of the source of infection may be needed alongside appropriate medication. Management depends on infection severity and anatomical involvement.
