Facial Reconstruction Surgery


Facial reconstruction is necessary when there is a congenital defect, post-tumor damage or trauma to the face and jaw that must be repaired.

Each defect is unique requiring a reconstructive surgical intervention to address the problems and treatment options. In many occurrences, restoration of a normal structure is possible with improvement in function and appearance.

Commonly treated conditions include:

  • Cleft lip and palate
  • Facial burns
  • Birth defects
  • Abnormalities caused by cancer
  • Deformities caused by trauma

Our oral and maxillofacial surgeons are experts at reconstructing facial structures for functionality and esthetics. As facial reconstruction is unique to each patient, contact our oral and maxillofacial surgeons to discuss the best treatment plan for you.
