State-of-the-Art Treatments: Renewed Smiles
Orthognathic surgery is a specialized surgical technique aimed at correcting misalignments of the maxilla and mandible to improve chewing function, airway patency, and facial harmony.
This procedure is primarily recommended in cases where developmental abnormalities of the jaw occur, which can lead to issues with bite alignment (occlusion), affect the relationship between teeth and gums, as well as the supporting bone (periodontal problems). Additionally, orthognathic surgery can address temporomandibular joint (TMJ) difficulties and correct disproportionate facial features, significantly enhancing facial aesthetics.
Orthognathic surgery is also an effective solution for individuals suffering from sleep apnea, a condition in which the airway becomes partially or completely obstructed during sleep, causing breathing interruptions and sleep disturbances.
Maxillofacial surgery plays a crucial role in treating sleep apnea, a disorder that affects sleep quality and overall health. This syndrome is characterized by repeated episodes of obstruction or collapse of the upper airway during sleep, leading to breathing interruptions. These episodes can occur between 5 and 30 times per hour in moderate cases and over 100 times in very severe cases, lasting from seconds to minutes.
The effects of sleep apnea on rest quality can be devastating. Excessive daytime sleepiness, difficulty concentrating, and mood changes are just some of the consequences that significantly impact the daily lives of those affected. Additionally, respiratory and cardiovascular disorders, hypertension, and clotting problems can further compromise overall health.
Treatment approaches vary depending on the severity of the condition. For mild cases, a Mandibular Advancement Device (MAD) may be used, and weight loss is recommended where appropriate.
For more severe cases of sleep apnea, maxillofacial surgery becomes an essential option. These surgical procedures focus on the jawbones and may involve different modalities of advancement, whether exclusively for the mandible or for both jaws.
Restore Restful Sleep.
Dental implants are a revolutionary option for replacing missing teeth and regaining a complete, functional smile. They consist of three essential components that work in harmony:
- Dental Implant: This artificial titanium root is surgically placed in the bone, providing a strong and durable foundation for the artificial tooth.
- Prosthetic Abutment: Attached to the implant, this abutment offers support and stability, allowing the dental crown to fit perfectly
- Ceramic Crown: Made of high-quality ceramic, the crown restores the natural shape and aesthetics of the tooth, ensuring a radiant smile.
Dental implantology allows the replacement of one or more missing teeth without affecting adjacent teeth. Unlike traditional dentures, implants prevent bone resorption in areas where teeth are missing, preserving the health and structure of the jawbones.
At our Maxillofacial Surgery and Dentistry Service at Ruber International, we use advanced digital technologies to ensure accurate and personalized diagnosis and treatment planning for each patient. Additionally, our maintenance program ensures that your implants remain in perfect condition and functionality over the long term.
Dental Implants: An Effective and Long-Lasting Solution to Enhance Your Well-Being.
Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Surgery is a specialized procedure designed to treat disorders and dysfunctions affecting this critical joint. Its primary goal is to provide pain relief and improve jaw function.
The TMJ is a crucial joint that enables jaw movement and plays an essential role in everyday activities such as speaking, chewing, and swallowing. When this joint is affected by issues like displacements, inflammation, injuries, or structural disorders, it can cause intense pain and limit jaw mobility.
In many cases, conservative treatments such as physical therapy, medication, and relaxation therapy are used to address TMJ issues. However, when these options are insufficient to resolve the dysfunction, TMJ Surgery becomes a viable consideration.
Under the care of our maxillofacial surgeons, modern techniques and advancements make TMJ surgery a safe and effective option to enhance the quality of life for those suffering from jaw pain and dysfunction.
Comprehensive and Personalized Diagnosis and Treatment.
Our oral and maxillofacial surgeons are highly trained to perform various procedures to treat a wide range of conditions affecting the oral cavity, face, and neck, whether congenital, acquired, or trauma-related.
Among their extensive range of procedures are:
- Removal of Jaw Cysts: This surgery focuses on eliminating cysts that may develop in the jaw area, helping prevent complications and restore oral health.
- Wisdom Teeth (Third Molar) Extraction: Oral and maxillofacial surgery also addresses the removal of wisdom teeth when they fail to erupt properly or cause issues such as pain, inflammation, or dental misalignment.
- Bone Regeneration for Implant Rehabilitation: In cases where dental implants are needed but the bone in the implant site is insufficient, oral and maxillofacial surgery can perform bone regeneration techniques to facilitate the implant procedure and restore dental function and aesthetics.
