The department deals with
Orthognathic Surgery:
Beauty is Skin Deep is a proverb that has been proved wrong... it is at least deep to the bone. Orthognathic Surgery is a branch of OMFS that aims to correct under grown, over grown or asymentric jaw and enhance the beauty of an individual by correcting the jaw bones.
The department has been involved in orthognathic surgery since the year 2000 and is one of the centers for quality treatment in the country.
With facilities for pre and post surgical orthodontics and availability of Fully adjustable articulator SAM III and Surgical planning Platform, It is one of the state of the art orthognathic centers in the country.
Maxillofacial Trauma:
With nearly 500 trauma related surgeries in a year, the department is one of the renowned maxillofacial trauma centers in the country. Currently the areas of interest include Orbital Reconstruction, management of Post traumatic deformity and newer internal fixation plate designs.
Maxillofacial Implantology:
Handling more than 500 cases of trauma each year, the department had to face the challenge of adequately rehabilitating these patients to proper dental function and esthetics.
Dental implants, the state of the art modality to replace missing teeth can be of little help when one is lost due to trauma. This opened up a new area of interest in bone grafts in these patients for dental implants.
Autogenous, alloplastic and homogenous bone grafts are being done and later implants are placed to totally rehabilitate patients with maxillofacial trauma.
