This procedure deals with disorders like face imperfections, injuries, defects in jaws, soft and hard tissues of the oral and maxillofacial region.
This surgical method focuses on dental problems which have a relation to the soft & hard tissues of the face, jaws, and mouth.
The following things are done under the procedure of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery in Udaipur:
Your tooth extraction will either be surgical or simple, depending on whether your tooth is impacted or visible.
(a) Simple Extraction - You will receive an anesthetic that will numb the area surrounding your tooth so you'll feel the only force, not pain, during the procedure. Then an instrument the dentist will use, known as an elevator for tooth loosening and forceps for its removal.
(b) Surgical Extraction - You will likely receive both local and intravenous anesthesia, the latter of which makes you calm and comfortable. General anesthesia may also treat you, depending on any medical conditions. With the help of general anesthesia, you will remain unconscious during the procedure.
A cyst is a pouch or sack which develops within tissues and contains fluid. The therapy for cysts is to remove them from the jaws. In most cases, this procedure is done by a small incision inside the oral cavity and the removal of a bone part. But sometimes, due to the location or size of the cyst, dentists have to make incisions outside of the mouth too. Occasionally when large cysts are found, it may be possible to treat them by surgical decompression.
After surgery, the cyst is sent to a pathologist for precious examination under a microscope to confirm the performed diagnosis.
This is an insidious, chronic disease that can affect any part of the oral cavity and occasionally the pharynx with epithelial atrophy, which leads to stiffness of the oral mucosa, causing an inability to eat and trismus. OSMF has an extreme rate of morbidity because it leads to progressive inability in mouth opening, resulting in improper food eating and consequent nutritional deficiencies.
Management of this disorder by the dental clinic in Udaipur involves the cessation of habit and release of fibrous bands surgically, followed by the forceful opening of the oral cavity by coronoidectomy and coverage of surgical imperfections with nasolabial flap and daily activity of postoperative active jaw physiotherapy for a period of 6 months. Surgery may lead to scar tissue which decreases mouth opening due to scar contraction in the muscles of the mouth closing.
It is also called mouth cancer, a cancer of the upper throat, the lining of the lips, or the mouth. Tests used for the diagnosis of mouth cancer are the following:
(a) Physical Exam - Your dentist or doctor will examine your mouth and lips to look for deformities — areas of irritation like sores and white patches.
(b) Removal of Tissue for Testing (Biopsy) - If a suspicious area is found, the dentist or doctor may remove a sample of cells for performing laboratory tests in a biopsy procedure.
Treatment for cancer of the mouth depends on the location of cancer and stage of the disorder, as well as the patient’s overall health and personal preferences. All the kinds of oral cancer therapies are mentioned below:
Surgical method for mouth cancer includes:
(a) Surgery for Tumor Removal - The surgeon's doctor cuts away the tumor and a margin of tissues surrounding the affected area to ensure that all the cancer cells have been removed.
(b) Surgery for Cancer Removal that has Spread to the Neck - If cancer cells have spread to the lymph nodes present in your neck or if there's a greater risk that this has occurred based on the depth or size of your cancer, your doctor may suggest a method for removal of lymph nodes and related tissue present in your neck.
(c) Surgery to Reconstruct the Mouth - After an operation for cancer removal, your doctor may suggest reconstructive surgery to rebuild your oral cavity, which leads to regaining the ability to talk and eat. Grafts of the skin, bone, or muscle from other parts of your body may also be transplanted by your surgeon.
Radiation therapy involves using high-energy beams bythe dentist of Udaipur, like protons and X-rays, to kill cancer cells. This treatment is mainly delivered from an appliance outside of the body (external beam radiation). However, it can also be provided from wires and radioactive seeds placed near your cancer (brachytherapy). Primarily this treatment method is used after surgery. But sometimes, it is used alone if an individual has found early-stage oral cancer. In other cases, chemotherapy is given along with radiation therapy. This combination enhances the effect of radiation therapy.
In this treatment method, chemicals are used to kill cancer cells. Chemotherapy drugs are provided alone, with a combination of other drugs, or with a combination of other cancer therapies. Chemotherapy may enhance the effect of radiation therapy, so these two are mostly combined.
This treatment helps the immune system to fight cancer. The immune system never attacks the cancer-affected cells because cancer cells produce proteins that bind to the immune system cells. Immunotherapy acts by interfering with that process.
