Prof. Dr. Ayesha Maqsood
Head of Department (Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery)Assalam Alaikum and welcome to my Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Foundation Dental Hospital. When people hear the words, oral surgery, they usually associate my department with extraction of teeth. However, the specialty deals with a lot more conditions than that. We provide emergency care for patients presenting with fractures of the face bones. Other than that, we also provide care to patients afflicted with oral cancers. We work closely with other specialties of dentistry, be it in orthodontics, where we conduct surgeries for correction of facial bones or, bone grafting for patients with cleft lip and palate. We also facilitate in rehabilitation of your smile which has been affected due to tooth loss through implants (replacement of real teeth with artificial teeth from the root level). We are a diverse group of doctors trained from different backgrounds and we always put our knowledge and experience together in the hope to offer the best care to our patients.
