Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Specialized in: oral and maxillofacial surgery About the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Marienhaus Hospital St. Elisabeth Neuwied
The Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at the Marienhaus Hospital St. Elisabeth Neuwied provides the full range of medical services in the area of its specialization. The priority focuses of clinical activity for the department's doctors are surgical resections of benign and malignant oral and maxillofacial tumors, including follow-up reconstructive plastic surgery, implantology, treatment of oral and maxillofacial injuries, orthodontic surgery, and plastic aesthetic facial surgery. The department also offers cosmetic and aesthetic procedures for the treatment of wrinkles, such as injections of Botox, filler, and hyaluronic acid. When planning the surgical intervention, the department's surgeons not only consider the therapeutic and functional outcome but also pay due attention to the aesthetic aspect. Surgical interventions in the oral and maxillofacial regions are performed in modern operating rooms, the hygiene and safety standards of which meet the highest standards. Many operations are performed on an outpatient basis, so the patient can return home just a few hours after the therapeutic procedure. The department's specialists devote enough time to personal consultations with patients, talk about the stages of the upcoming treatment, and, if necessary, simulate the expected result with the help of computerized programs. The department is headed by PD Dr. dent. Dr. med. Matthias Wenghoefer.
Dentoalveolar surgery is well developed in the department. The doctors specializing in this medical field are engaged in the treatment of dentoalveolar diseases. Healthcare professionals most often perform surgical interventions for tooth extraction, including wisdom teeth, tooth root resection, jaw correction to improve positioning and adhesion of prostheses, and operations to remove jaw cysts and malignant tumors. Patients with oral and maxillofacial injuries are also treated here. When performing the operations, doctors use sparing microsurgical techniques. Anesthesia is an obligatory element of the therapeutic process in order to eliminate pain and maximize the patient's comfort during treatment.
Dental implantology is highly popular among the medical services offered in the department. Today, dental implantation is the only method for restoring a lost tooth. The procedure involves implanting an artificial root into the jawbone, on which a crown is attached at the final stage of treatment. Almost all modern models of dental implants are made of titanium and its alloys, which ensure high biocompatibility and virtually eliminate the risk of rejection of the implant. In terms of appearance and functionality, a dental implant does not differ from a natural tooth, which is a huge advantage for the patient. In addition, dental implants are durable and usually have a life-long service life. In some cases, during the preparation for dental implantation, the patient may require bone grafting for bone tissue augmentation (in cases of an insufficient amount of the patient's own bone tissue, there is a risk of loosening the root part of the implant). The department's surgeons perform all therapeutic manipulations during the dental implantation procedure using anesthesia, so the patient can count on painless treatment.
The department's surgical range of services also includes aesthetic facial plastic surgery. The specialists at the medical facility brilliantly perform operations for nose reshaping (rhinoplasty), eyelid lift (blepharoplasty), face and neck lift, forehead lift, and scar revision in the face. They also perform reconstructive plastic surgery after the removal of oral and maxillofacial tumors. All the above-mentioned surgical interventions are performed with the help of modern minimally invasive techniques, which contribute to rapid recovery in the postoperative period. The medical facility also offers cosmetic procedures for the treatment of wrinkles, such as injections of Botox, hyaluronic acid, and fillers, microneedling for skin rejuvenation, and lip augmentation with hyaluronic acid. Experienced specialists who always listen to the preferences of patients and strive to fulfill them perform the cosmetic procedures.
