The oral maxillofacial dental procedure refers to the diagnosis, surgery and concomitant treatment of diseases, injuries and defects that are related to both functional and cosmetic aspects in the oral and maxillofacial region.
An oral and maxillofacial surgeon is someone who treats problems that range from the removal of affected teeth to the correction of facial trauma.
The Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Sector of Liv Hospital - Turkey offers consultations, diagnosis, and treatment to its patients for problems in the oral and maxillofacial region, head, and neck.
Oral and maxillofacial problems can refer to a number of conditions that require expertise in both cosmetic surgery and dental medicine.
Our dentists and maxillofacial surgeons have years of experience treating facial disproportion, facial pain, temporomandibular joint disorders, impacted teeth, cysts, and tumours in the jaw, as well as multiple problems affecting the oral mucosa, such as mouth ulcers and infections.
Dental implants: the foundation for a perfect smile
Treatment with dental implants allows patients to regain their ability to eat practically anything and smile confidently.
The dentists at Liv Hospital, Turkey, perform tooth implant placement by placing tiny titanium implants that are inserted into the jawbone where teeth are missing. These metal supports act as a replacement for the tooth root.
The dentists at Liv Hospital surgically place the supports into the jawbone. The bone fuses with the titanium, forming a strong foundation for the artificial tooth. These posts become stable supports for the placement of the artificial teeth.
Dental implants can also aesthetically restore facial structure by protecting the bone from damage that can occur when teeth are missing.
The Liv Hospital team at the Centre for Dental and Oral Health and Maxillofacial Surgery is dedicated to providing its international patients with dental treatment and service of highest quality and value.
We inform and educate our international patients about their treatments and provide them with the most advanced preventive, restorative aesthetic, and cosmetic dentistry available in Europe.
For patients, this means shorter and more comfortable visits with predictable, long-lasting, and naturally beautiful smiles.
We welcome you to our Dental Centre not only as a patient, but also as our dear guest and friend from abroad.
Liv Hospital helps you live with an everlasting smile.

Oral diseases
Healthy mouth, healthy body! The mouth is the window to the health of our body. Oral health is vital to overall health and quality of life.
A healthy mouth represents the state of being free from mouth and facial pain, having no oral or throat cancer, infection or inflammation, decayed tooth or tooth loss, or other dental damage that can interfere with one's ability to bite, chew, smile, or speak.
The most common problems for your dental and oral health and diseases of the mouth are tooth decay, periodontal (gum-related) diseases, cancer, and infectious diseases of the mouth.
Early detection of oral cancer is extremely important to reduce the risks of this devastating disease. The Dental Clinic of Liv Hospital, Turkey, provides the most effective, non-invasive techniques that can assist practitioners in the early diagnosis of oral cancer.
Laser Dental Treatment
Laser can be used as a safe and effective treatment tool for the full range of dental procedures. Laser dental treatment offers several advantages. Dentists do not need to handle a drill or administer anaesthesia when using a laser - thus allowing patients to have a more pleasant experience at the dentist.
Laser dentistry is also known for its accurate and precise results. What is more, laser can reduce the recovery period associated with traditional treatments. Laser can be applied to such treatments as placing fillings, performing root canal procedures, biopsies (for cancer detection), and teeth whitening.
Liv Hospital provides patients with a better aesthetic appearance as well as treatment with its laser technology, which is used in teeth whitening and treatment of the gingiva.
Root canals
Root canals are treated through an endodontic procedure that treats tooth infections. Endodontics can be an effective treatment when the pulp becomes inflamed and infected.
