Oral and maxillofacial consultants specialise in diagnosing and treating a wide range of conditions that affect your mouth, jaw, face, and neck.
Maxillofacial treatment can help treat issues such as facial trauma, jaw misalignment, congenital deformities, infections, and even tumours.
The specialty of oral and maxillofacial surgery is impressively unique in that it requires a dual qualification in medicine and dentistry, followed by in-depth general and specialist surgical training.
Maxillofacial specialists often work closely with other dental and expert medical professionals too, such as orthodontists and ENT (ear nose and throat) specialists, to provide highly skilled and comprehensive care.

From chronic pain and discomfort to the emotional impact of having a facial abnormality, living with a maxillofacial condition can be significantly challenging.
Your first consultation with a maxillofacial specialist is a valuable opportunity to share how your symptoms have been impacting you. This appointment is designed to provide you with a thorough understanding of why you might be experiencing symptoms and the steps ahead, ensuring you feel confident and informed at every stage.
During your appointment, your consultant will take a detailed look at your medical history and perform a physical exam of your facial structures. They may also recommend additional diagnostic tests—such as X-rays, MRIs, or blood work—to make sure they have all the necessary information they need to confirm your diagnosis. If further tests are required, you’ll return for a follow-up visit to discuss the results in full. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, your consultant will talk you through the findings and explain every treatment option available, ensuring you have a comprehensive view of your choices.
They’ll take the time to answer all your questions, helping you understand the benefits, risks, and potential outcomes of each treatment. This way, you’ll feel fully informed and empowered to make decisions about your healthcare. After agreeing on the best path forward, your consultant will discuss costs, typically provided as a fixed-price package, and if surgery is necessary, they will suggest potential dates.

Maxillofacial treatment (both surgical and non-surgical) can treat a broad range of problems that affect your mouth, jaw, face, and neck. These include:
A misaligned jaw
A misaligned jaw (also known as a jaw misalignment or malocclusion) occurs when your upper and lower jaws do not meet or fit together properly. This can be caused by various factors, including your genetics, a traumatic injury, or developmental issues from your childhood. A misaligned jaw can cause a range of problems, such as difficulty chewing or speaking, chronic jaw pain, headaches, and in some cases, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders. It can also lead to uneven wear on your teeth and may affect your facial appearance, leading to low self-esteem and confidence.
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders
TMJ stands for the temporomandibular joint, which is the joint that connects your jawbone to your skull. This joint allows for the movement of your jaw, helping you chew, speak, and yawn. TMJ disorders refer to a range of conditions that affect this joint and its surrounding muscles. These disorders can cause symptoms such as jaw pain, clicking or popping sounds when opening or closing your mouth, difficulty chewing, and even the locking of your jaw in an open or closed position.
Dental problems
Maxillofacial surgery can treat a wide range of dental and oral health problems, including congenital defects like a cleft lip and palate. It can also treat conditions such as oral cancer, cysts, and tumours in your mouth and jaw, often involving complex reconstructive procedures.
Treatment for dental problems at Circle Cheshire Clinic
At Circle Cheshire Clinic, we offer a range of maxillofacial treatment options, including treatment for dental problems. These include:
The surgical removal of complicated buried roots
A complicated buried root in your tooth refers to the portion of your tooth's root that remains embedded in your jawbone after the visible part (the crown) has been damaged, broken off, or removed. The condition can happen when the root is difficult to extract due to its position, shape, or your surrounding bone structure, making it ‘complicated.’ During surgery, your consultant will make an incision in your gum to expose the underlying bone where the root is embedded. In some instances, they will remove a small portion of bone surrounding the root to gain full access to it.
A biopsy for mouth lesions
During a biopsy for mouth lesions, your consultant will remove a small tissue sample from the affected area in your mouth. This will be sent to a pathologist who will examine it further to determine whether it is cancerous.
Depending on the size of the lesion, your consultant might remove a small portion of it (incisional biopsy) or the entire lesion (excisional biopsy). Sometimes a circular blade is used for a deeper tissue sample (punch biopsy).
At Circle Cheshire Clinic, you will receive exceptional, compassionate care in a calming and modern environment designed for your comfort.
