FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is oral and maxillofacial surgery?
Oral and maxillofacial surgery is a specialised branch of surgery that treats conditions involving the mouth, jawbones, face, oral cavity, and facial structures. It includes treatment of facial trauma, jaw fractures, tumours, deformities, and reconstructive procedures.
Jaw fractures should be treated as early as possible, especially if there is facial swelling, pain, difficulty chewing, jaw misalignment, bleeding, or inability to open or close the mouth properly. Early treatment helps restore jaw function and prevents long-term complications.
Minor fractures may sometimes heal without surgery, depending on their severity and location. However, complex fractures involving jaw alignment, facial deformity, or chewing difficulties usually require surgical treatment for proper healing and functional restoration.
Oral cavity tumours are abnormal growths affecting areas such as the tongue, gums, cheeks, jaw, lips, or mouth lining. Early diagnosis and treatment are important to prevent progression and preserve oral function.
In many cases, yes. Reconstruction helps restore facial appearance, jaw movement, speech, chewing ability, and confidence following trauma or tumour removal. Treatment depends on the size and location of the defect.
Yes. Facial and jaw injuries can affect chewing, speech, jaw movement, bite alignment, and appearance. Timely treatment helps restore proper function and prevent long-term complications.
Recovery varies depending on the complexity of the fracture and surgery. Most patients gradually recover over several weeks, although complete healing may take longer. Diet modifications and follow-up care are important during recovery.
No. Some oral tumours are benign (non-cancerous), while others may be cancerous or pre-cancerous. Proper evaluation, imaging, and biopsy are often required for diagnosis and treatment planning.
Yes. Dr. Garud has extensive experience in treating complex facial trauma and jaw fractures resulting from accidents, falls, and severe injuries, with emphasis on reconstruction and functional recovery.
