Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Information about the Centre
Oral and maxillofacial surgery is developing all the time and seeks to treat and correct disturbances of the oral and facial tissues.

- Skeletal deformities
- Congenital malformations

Procedures Performed
- Orthognathic Surgery
Bone corrections (osteotomies) are generally performed intraorally. Surgical techniques (direct osteosynthesis or osteodistractions) can be performed depending on the type and severity of the deformity. Surgery can be planned in advance and guided via 3-D computer assistance.
- Preprosthetic Surgery
- Bone Grafting
- Implantology and Dental Rehabilitation
To treat partial or total edentulism accompanied by various degrees of bone atrophy, surgeons are able to perform all manner of bone-reconstruction surgery. New technologies (including CT-scan
diagnosis, 3-D planning, computer guided surgery, immediate implant placement and immediate loading) are available along with a wide range of implant systems, adapted to each particular case (one or several surgical procedures).
- Tumour Surgery
Our staff are highly experienced in treating orbito-palpebral pathologies and/or tumours (benign or malignant) of the head and neck and in all aspects of resection and reconstruction of soft and hard tissues.
