We answer the most common questions about maxillofacial surgery
What is maxillofacial surgery, and what procedures does W SMILE perform in Medellín?
Oral and maxillofacial surgery is a specialty that diagnoses and treats conditions of the mouth, jaws, mandible, and associated tissues. At W SMILE, in Medellín, we offer procedures such as wisdom tooth extraction, complex dental implant surgery, orthognathic surgery, treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, frenectomy, and surgery for oral cysts or lesions. Each procedure requires an individual assessment to determine the appropriate treatment.
When is it necessary to have wisdom teeth removed by a maxillofacial surgeon?
Wisdom tooth extraction may be indicated when the teeth cause pain, infections, cavities, damage to neighboring teeth, or difficulty erupting properly. However, not all wisdom teeth need to be removed. At W SMILE, we evaluate the position of wisdom teeth through a clinical assessment and imaging studies when indicated, to determine whether they require surgical extraction or dental monitoring.w
Does jaw pain or TMJ problems always require maxillofacial surgery?
No. Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders can cause jaw pain, difficulty opening the mouth, discomfort when chewing, or joint noises. Many cases can initially be treated with non-surgical alternatives. At W SMILE, the specialist evaluates symptoms, jaw function, and the necessary studies to determine the most appropriate treatment. Surgery is considered only in specific situations.
What is orthognathic surgery, and when is it needed to correct the jaw?
Orthognathic surgery is a maxillofacial procedure that corrects certain alterations in the position of the jaws that affect the bite, chewing, or facial harmony. It may be indicated when skeletal differences cannot be corrected with orthodontics alone. At W SMILE, we evaluate each case through specialized diagnosis and interdisciplinary planning to determine whether the patient needs surgical treatment.
How much does maxillofacial surgery cost in Medellín, Colombia?
The price of maxillofacial surgery in Medellín depends on the procedure, its complexity, diagnostic studies, necessary materials, and the patient’s clinical conditions. Wisdom tooth extraction, complex implant surgery, and orthognathic surgery require different approaches. At W SMILE, we perform a specialized assessment to establish the treatment plan, explain its stages, and provide a personalized quote.
