About the department
The Department of Adult and Pediatric Oral, Maxillofacial, Plastic Surgery at the University Hospital Jena offers the full range of medical services in the areas of its specialization. In addition to dental surgery, the department specializes in traumatology of the facial skull and skull base, head and neck tumors, orthognathic surgery, craniofacial malformations, cleft lip, plastic reconstructive and aesthetic surgery, dentoalveolar interventions, etc. An interdisciplinary approach to the diagnostics, counseling and development of treatment programs contributes to the achievement of the best treatment outcome. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Stefan Schultze-Mosgau, who according to the Focus magazine, ranks among the top specialists in implantology.
One of the department's priorities is the diagnostics and treatment of benign and malignant tumors of the oral cavity, maxillofacial area, ears, etc. The department's specialists have advanced experience in the treatment of hemangiomas – benign vascular lesions, which are quite common in newborns. Depending on the location, type and activity of hemangioma growth, the choice is made in favor of either active therapy or waiting tactics. Thanks to a combination of long experience and advanced medical technology, the best treatment results are provided.
The special focus is on the treatment of congenital facial malformations. In addition to a complete cleft lip, jaw and palate, the department successfully treats other, more rare, malformations, for example, Pierre Robin sequence, Treacher Collins syndrome, Goldenhar syndrome, cherubism, etc.
The treatment mainly involves the use of microsurgical techniques. In particular, microsurgical methods are successfully used in the reconstruction of bone and soft tissue defects of the head and neck caused by oncological diseases, after accidents or in the case of facial malformations. At the same time, tissues (bones, muscles, skin) from other parts of the body are used for the reconstruction of various facial structures. The use of the very latest microsurgical techniques helps to achieve optimal cosmetic results.

About hospital
According to the prestigious Focus magazine, the University Hospital Jena regularly ranks among the top German medical facilities!
The hospital has positioned itself as a multidisciplinary medical facility with a long history of more than 200 years. Since its foundation, the hospital has been constantly developing and modernizing, thanks to which nowadays it offers patients the highest level of treatment in Germany based on the use of innovative technologies and the very latest therapeutic techniques. The hospital consists of 26 specialized departments and 25 research institutes. It treats more than 53,600 inpatients and about 274,000 outpatients every year. The staff of the hospital includes more than 5,600 competent doctors.
The extensive resources of the university hospital, high treatment standards, and the introduction of new research developments provide first-class treatment in Germany meeting the stringent international standards. The hospital has an excellent reputation not only in Germany, but also far beyond its borders, due to which it accepts a large number of foreign patients for the diagnostics and treatment.
Despite the technical progress and the availability of accurate computerized systems, the patient’s physical health and emotional state is the main value of each employee of the hospital, since some diagnoses cause emotional distress in patients. The doctors of the hospital believe that the key to a successful result is a comprehensive and individual approach, so they spend a lot of time talking with patients, listen carefully to all their wishes and support at all stages of the therapeutic process. All this in combination with high-precision diagnostic techniques and the very latest types of therapy forms a solid basis for the achievement of an optimal treatment result.
