Track: Craniofacial Surgery
Craniofacial Surgery is a specialized field focusing on the correction of congenital and acquired deformities of the skull, face, and jaw. This includes treating conditions such as cleft lip and palate, craniosynostosis (premature fusion of skull bones), and complex facial trauma from accidents or injuries. Surgeons employ advanced techniques to reconstruct facial structures, repair fractures, and restore normal function and appearance. The goal is to improve both aesthetic outcomes and functional capabilities, often requiring a multidisciplinary approach for optimal results.
Deformities of the Jaw (Orthodontia): Orthodontia addresses misaligned jaws and teeth using braces, aligners, and other appliances to correct bite issues, improve function, and enhance appearance.
Reconstruction After Head and Neck Cancer: Involves surgical and prosthetic techniques to restore function and aesthetics following cancer treatments. Procedures may include rebuilding facial structures, jaws, and oral tissues to improve quality of life.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Snoring: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a condition where the airway becomes blocked during sleep, causing breathing interruptions. Treatment may involve lifestyle changes, CPAP machines, or surgical options to relieve snoring and improve sleep quality.
Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Method: Refers to diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for TMJ disorders, which affect the jaw joint and surrounding muscles, causing pain and dysfunction. Treatment options include physical therapy, medication, and sometimes surgery.
Synostosis of the Cranium: A condition where skull bones fuse prematurely, affecting skull shape and brain development. Surgical intervention is often required to correct the deformity and allow normal brain growth.
Trauma to the Craniofacial Region: Includes injuries to the face and skull from accidents or violence, requiring complex reconstructive surgery to repair fractures, lacerations, and restore function and appearance.
Facial Palsy: A condition where facial muscles are weakened or paralyzed, often due to nerve damage. Treatment options may include physical therapy, medications, and sometimes surgical interventions to improve facial movement and function.
