Treatment for fractured tooth and jaw
The commonest causes of fractured jaws are fights, road accidents, falls and sport. All traumatized patients are fully assessed at Dental Spa. In case of minor injuries, like fractured tooth and bone complex, splinting is done at the clinic under local anesthesia. In cases of major trauma, after assessing the patients at Dental Spa, they are operated in a hospital under general anesthesia in joint collaboration with Dental Spa.
Maxillofacial surgical consultations
In cases where general anesthesia is required, the initial assessment is done at Dental Spa and the patient is operated by the Oral Surgeon in a major hospital.
