Maxillofacial Surgeons Offer Solutions to a Wide Range of Oral Maladies

While an oral surgeon provides surgical solutions for countless dental issues, sometimes orofacial problems require extremely specialized care.

These medical professionals often work closely with oral surgeons on full mouth reconstruction, but have more knowledge in the structures of the face – jaw, sinuses, ears, etc. They can handle congenital deformities like cleft lips and palates, as well as compound ocular fractures from facial trauma.
