Explanation about Oral Surgery
Oral surgery involves surgical procedures within the oral cavity.
Oral surgery is a medical specialty that provides surgical treatment for conditions affecting various oral structures such as teeth, gums, tongue, jaws, jaw bones, and the temporomandibular joint.
The scope of treatment ranges from tooth extractions to cancer treatment, addressing a wide range of conditions.
Common procedures include wisdom tooth extraction, treatment of impacted teeth, management of oral ulcers and tongue cancer, as well as addressing temporomandibular joint disorders.
