Reconstructive Dental Surgery
The mouth is a sensitive area. As a result of poor hygiene, external physical trauma or even genetics, it can give rise to varying degrees of pain and can even be a source of poor self-image. Missing teeth, too much space between teeth (diastema), overcrowding of teeth, temporomandibular joint disorders, jaw injuries, deteriorated gums, mismatch between the upper teeth and the lower teeth are some of the problems that can arise. Reconstructive dental surgery is often required to correct these anomalies.
