Oral Cancer Surgery

Oral cancer surgery involves removing malignant tissue from the mouth while considering surrounding structures and functional needs. Treatment planning depends on the tumour location, stage and overall patient health. Reconstruction or additional cancer therapies may be required in selected cases.

Tongue Cancer Surgery

Tongue cancer surgery removes cancerous tissue from the tongue and may involve nearby lymph nodes depending on disease characteristics. The extent of surgery varies according to the tumour. Speech, swallowing and reconstructive requirements are important considerations during treatment planning.

Jaw Tumour Excision

Jaw tumour excision is performed to remove selected benign or malignant growths affecting the upper or lower jaw. Surgical planning considers the tumour type, size and proximity to important structures. Some patients require additional reconstructive procedures after removal.

Jaw Reconstruction Surgery

Jaw reconstruction aims to restore the structure and function of the jaw following tumour removal, trauma or other significant defects. Reconstructive techniques may involve bone grafts, tissue transfer or specialised fixation devices, depending on the nature of the defect.

Facial Trauma Surgery

Facial trauma surgery treats selected injuries affecting facial bones and soft tissues. Evaluation may involve imaging and examination of the jaw, eyes, teeth and surrounding structures. Surgical repair aims to restore appropriate alignment, protect function and support healing.

Facial Fracture Fixation

Facial fracture fixation involves stabilising broken facial bones using suitable surgical methods, sometimes including plates and screws. Treatment depends on the affected bones, degree of displacement and associated injuries. Restoring bite alignment and facial structure can be important goals.

Orthognathic Jaw Surgery

Orthognathic surgery corrects selected abnormalities in the alignment or relationship of the upper and lower jaws. It may be considered when skeletal problems affect chewing, bite alignment or facial balance. Treatment planning often involves collaboration with orthodontic specialists.

Oral Biopsy

An oral biopsy involves collecting a small tissue sample from an abnormal area inside the mouth for laboratory examination. It helps evaluate persistent ulcers, suspicious growths and other lesions when clinical examination alone cannot establish a definite diagnosis.

Precancerous Oral Lesion Assessment

Potentially malignant oral disorders, including some persistent white or red patches, require careful assessment. Evaluation may involve identifying risk factors, examining the oral cavity and performing a biopsy when indicated. Regular follow-up helps identify concerning changes.

Oral Submucous Fibrosis Management

Oral submucous fibrosis is a chronic condition associated with stiffening of tissues inside the mouth and reduced mouth opening. Management includes eliminating contributing habits, assessing disease severity, monitoring for malignant changes and considering supportive or surgical treatment when appropriate.

Dental Implant Surgery

Dental implants are artificial supports placed within the jawbone to replace missing teeth. Assessment considers bone quality, oral health and individual treatment requirements. Surgical placement is followed by healing before suitable restorative components are attached.

Impacted Wisdom Tooth Removal

Impacted wisdom teeth may remain partly or completely trapped within the jawbone or surrounding gum tissue. Surgical removal can be considered when they cause pain, infection, damage to adjacent teeth or other clinically significant problems.

Jaw Cyst Surgery

Jaw cysts are fluid-filled or tissue-lined cavities that can develop within or near the jawbones. Some require surgical removal or decompression, depending on size, location and diagnosis. Imaging and tissue examination may help guide treatment planning.

Facial Infection Management

Facial and jaw infections can result from dental disease, soft tissue infections or other causes. Treatment depends on severity and may include antibiotics, drainage or management of the underlying source. Rapidly spreading infections require urgent medical assessment.
