When you hear the words “facial deformity,” your first thought might be about appearance. But in reality, these conditions affect so much more than how someone looks. They can influence how a person breathes, eats, speaks, and even sleeps. Whether due to congenital issues, trauma, or developmental irregularities, facial deformities require more than just cosmetic solutions. They need expert surgical care that restores both function and aesthetics.
This is where an oral and maxillofacial surgeon in Dubai like Dr. Gagan Sabharwal steps in.
Why Facial Deformities Need Expert Surgical Attention
Facial deformities can arise from a variety of causes:
- Congenital conditions like cleft lip and palate
- Trauma or injury such as road accidents or sports injuries
- Developmental issues like jaw misalignment (underbite/overbite)
- Tumors or infections requiring partial bone removal
These issues go beyond appearance. Left untreated, they can cause:
- Difficulty chewing or speaking
- Chronic jaw pain or TMJ disorders
- Breathing problems or sleep apnea
- Emotional distress and social anxiety
Correcting these problems is about restoring quality of life, not just visual symmetry.
“We treat people, not just faces. Our goal is to bring back comfort, confidence, and function.” — Dr. Gagan Sabharwal
