Comprehensive care for your health
Our team is experienced in treating both common and complex conditions. Whether you require surgery for impacted wisdom teeth, corrective jaw surgery or treatment following trauma, you can be confident that your care will be provided with skill, precision and compassion.
Maxillofacial surgery is a specialist area of medicine focusing on the diagnosis and surgical treatment of conditions affecting the face, jaws, mouth and neck. It can involve procedures for impacted teeth, jaw alignment, facial trauma, oral cancers and conditions affecting the bones or soft tissues of the face. Many treatments are performed using minimally invasive techniques that support quicker recovery and better outcomes.
Problems with the teeth, jaws or face can affect more than just comfort — they can impact eating, speaking and overall quality of life. Seeking advice early helps ensure the right treatment and peace of mind.
