Greetings from the Department of oral and maxillofacial surgery, SreeBalaji Dental College & Hospital, Chennai

The specialized discipline of dentistry known as oral and maxillofacial surgery is dedicated to the treatment of facial bone fractures, complex extractions, impacted teeth, and jaw abnormalities.

Furthermore, our department plays a vital role in managing jaw joint disorders and addressing the growing impact of oral pre-cancer and cancer of the oral cavity.
