A Unique Field Of Medicine

Oral & Maxillofacial care may be for facial reconstruction, jaw trauma, temporomandibular joint issues, oral cancers, tooth extraction, or fine dental implants.

Along with excellent surgical skills, this brings the unusual requirement for consultants to be qualified in medicine and dentistry.

A further duality is the need to carefully consider medical and aesthetic elements. Curative treatment is essential but our head and neck are prominent aspects of our appearance.

Insightful diagnosis and accurate planning lead your care, to ensure each element is considered. Whether through advice, medication, or surgery, treatment is provided with great skill.

Our team will also help you to feel supported, confident and relaxed throughout your treatment. In a complex and vital area of medicine, personal care matters.
