Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery in
Coimbatore, Kochi, Kannur & Calicut
Oral and maxillofacial surgery covers surgical treatment of conditions affecting the teeth, gums, jaw, face and surrounding structures. This includes wisdom tooth removal, surgical tooth extraction, jaw correction surgery, cyst removal and facial trauma management.
At Elite Dental Studio, our oral and maxillofacial surgery team handles a full range of dental surgical procedures at our clinics in Coimbatore, Calicut, Kochi and Kannur. Every surgical case is assessed using clinical examination and dental imaging before a treatment plan is finalised.
Wisdom Tooth Removal: What You Should Know?
Wisdom teeth are the third molars that erupt last, usually between the ages of 17 and 25. Not all wisdom teeth need removal. Removal is recommended when the tooth is impacted, causing recurrent infection, damaging adjacent teeth or contributing to crowding.
A dental X-ray confirms the exact position of the wisdom tooth and its proximity to nearby nerves before the dentist recommends removal. Simple cases are completed in one visit. Impacted cases may require a minor surgical approach with local anaesthesia. Orthognathic (corrective jaw) surgery is a separate, planned procedure used to reposition the jaw for severe bite problems that braces alone cannot correct, and is always planned in coordination with our orthodontics team.

Orthognathic Surgery: Correcting Jaw Position
- Orthognathic surgery, also called corrective jaw surgery, is a planned procedure to reposition the upper jaw, lower jaw or both to correct severe bite problems that cannot be resolved with braces alone.
- Conditions managed with orthognathic surgery include severe underbite, overbite, open bite, facial asymmetry and jaw pain caused by a significantly misaligned jaw. Treatment is always planned in coordination with our orthodontics team, as braces are typically part of the overall plan both before and after surgery.
What to Expect After Oral Surgery?
Post-surgical recovery varies by procedure. Most simple extractions and wisdom tooth removals heal within five to seven days for initial recovery. Swelling, mild pain and restricted mouth opening for a few days after surgery is normal and expected.
Surgical extractions and jaw procedures involve a longer recovery period. You will be given specific instructions on diet, pain management, rinsing and follow-up visits. Attending your post-operative check is important to confirm healing is progressing normally.
When Should You Consider Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery?
Certain dental and jaw problems need surgical evaluation rather than routine treatment alone.

If you notice any of these signs, a clinical examination and dental X-ray or CBCT scan can confirm whether surgery is the right next step.

I had a very peaceful and pleasant experience visiting the place. I got my wisdom tooth extracted. The doctors (Dr.Sandhya & Dr.Siddharth) and other staffs were very inviting and comforting, and walked me through the procedures very clearly. Would definitely recommend any one looking for a good place for their dental related consultations.
