Expert, time-sensitive surgical care for facial fractures, jaw injuries, and complex soft tissue trauma. Restoring critical function and appearance by surgical specialists.
Emergency Protocol
Hospital-backed surgical care
The face is our most vital instrument for communication, identity, and fundamental human functions such as breathing, seeing, and eating. Disfiguring facial injuries resulting from severe road traffic accidents (RTAs), brutal sports collisions, interpersonal violence, or catastrophic falls require absolute surgical mastery. At Biswas Clinic in Ayodhya, our core specialty is Maxillofacial Trauma and Facial Bone Reconstruction.
It is a common and dangerous misconception that all broken bones should simply go to a general orthopedic surgeon. Orthopedics excel at fixing arms and legs, but facial bones dictate how your upper and lower teeth lock together (your occlusion). If a facial fracture heals with even a millimeter of misalignment, you will suffer from a permanently ruined bite, chronic jaw pain, an inability to chew, and severe facial asymmetry. As a board-certified Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon, Dr. Biswas possesses the dual medical and dental expertise required to forcefully restore both critical function and pristine facial aesthetics.
Our reconstructive protocols leverage cutting-edge 3D CT imaging to build an exact virtual map of your shattered facial skeleton before we ever make an incision. We manage the entire spectrum of craniomaxillofacial trauma:
The mandible is a unique, U-shaped bone. When struck forcefully, it frequently breaks in two places simultaneously. An improperly fixed jaw fracture guarantees you will never chew solid food comfortably again. We utilize advanced Rigid Internal Fixation (RIF), applying ultra-thin, incredibly strong titanium micro-plates across the fracture lines. This instantly stabilizes the jaw, preventing the archaic miserable practice of wiring your mouth shut for six weeks.
A crushed cheekbone violently flattens the face and can trap the delicate muscles that control eye movement, causing excruciating double vision (diplopia). We employ highly sophisticated intraoral incisions (made entirely inside the mouth) or hidden approaches within the lower eyelid crease to elevate the shattered cheekbone back into its mathematically perfect anatomical position, securing it with titanium micro-mesh.
Named after the French surgeon René Le Fort, these are massive, high-velocity facial traumas where the entire upper jaw is sheerly separated from the skull. These injuries are genuine surgical emergencies often threatening the airway. We conduct profound, life-saving reconstructive surgeries in hospital settings to systematically rebuild the facial pillars from the skull base down to the upper teeth.
Not all trauma breaks the main jawbones; sometimes localized, extreme force knocks out (avulses) front teeth along with the brittle alveolar bone holding them. If you reach us within the critical "Golden Hour," we successfully splint and re-implant the native teeth. If unsalvageable, we perform immediate bone grafting and utilize immediate-load dental implants to restore your smile.
Facial trauma is rarely just broken bones; it heavily involves deep, jagged lacerations cutting through lips, eyelids, and facial nerves. Standard emergency room doctors often rapidly sew up facial cuts with thick sutures, leaving horrendous "railroad track" scars on the face.
At Biswas Clinic, soft tissue trauma is addressed with absolute plastic-surgical finesse. We meticulously realign severed muscles beneath the skin first. Then, using high magnification loupes and ultra-fine, hair-thin cosmetic sutures, we close the surface skin flawlessly, actively minimizing long-term scar burden and ensuring functional recovery of your facial expressions.
Surgical Duration
1 to 4 hours, strictly dependent on fracture complexity and soft tissue involvement.
Surgical Setting
Major skeletal reconstructions are executed under complete General Anesthesia within advanced partner hospital OTs.
Healing & Recovery Time
Primary bone healing takes roughly 4 to 6 weeks, requiring strict adherence to a non-chewing, pureed diet.
Reconstructing a face requires a surgeon who understands both orthopedics and dentistry.
General surgeons fix bones; Maxillofacial surgeons fix bones and ensure your teeth meet properly again. A misaligned bite after surgery causes lifelong pain.
We use advanced Rigid Internal Fixation (RIF) with tiny, biocompatible titanium plates and screws. This eliminates the outdated need to wire the jaws shut for weeks.
To prevent visible facial scarring, the vast majority of our reconstructive surgeries are performed through hidden incisions made inside the mouth.

Crucial medical information regarding maxillofacial emergencies and facial surgery in Ayodhya.
In modern maxillofacial surgery, the dreadful practice of wiring the jaws together for six weeks (Maxillomandibular Fixation) is fortunately rare. We utilize advanced Rigid Internal Fixation (RIF).
During surgery, we meticulously align the broken bone segments and secure them permanently with miniature titanium plates and tiny screws. Because the titanium bears the physical load of the jaw muscles, the vast majority of our patients wake up from surgery able to open and close their mouths immediately, allowing them to speak normally and quickly transition back to eating soft, pureed foods.
No, minimizing facial scars is arguably a Maxillofacial Surgeon's greatest priority. We are specifically trained to perform massive skeletal reconstructions by accessing the broken facial bones entirely from inside the mouth (intraoral approaches).
If accessing a specific fracture like an orbital (eye socket) blow-out absolutely requires a skin incision, we employ "stealth" plastic-surgery techniques. We hide the incisions deep within your natural smile lines, within the hairline, or hidden completely in the pink membrane just inside the lower eyelid (transconjunctival approach). Once healed, they are virtually imperceptible.
Not necessarily! A knocked-out tooth (complete avulsion) is a massive dental emergency subject to the "Golden Hour" rule. If you act rapidly, we can literally surgically re-implant it into your skull.
Emergency Action Steps: Do not panic. Pick up the tooth strictly by the hard white crown, NEVER touch the yellow root. Do not scrub the root with soap or water, as you will kill the microscopic living cells. Submerge the tooth in a glass of cold milk, or hold it in your cheek pouch (using your saliva), and rush to our clinic in Ayodhya within 60 minutes. We can splint it back into the fractured socket to save your natural smile.
This is a critical misunderstanding that ruins many lives. General orthopedic surgeons are masters of long bones (arms, legs, pelvis). However, they are not taught advanced dental occlusion (bite alignment).
The skull and jaw operate as a highly complex hinge. If a facial fracture heals skewed by just a single millimeter, your upper and lower teeth will crash into each other prematurely. This causes immense chronic TMJ (jaw joint) pain, inability to chew tough foods, migraines, and severe facial asymmetry. Maxillofacial Surgeons exclusively dedicate their lives to mastering this exact, intricate region.
Yes, but you will rapidly forget they are even there. Medical-grade titanium is extraordinarily biocompatible. This means your immune system treats it completely neutrally; it does not rust, corrode, or cause toxic reactions.
Over time, your facial bones will literally grow around and permanently fuse with the plates. Because they are micro-thin, you cannot see them through your skin, and you cannot feel them when touching your face. Importantly, they will not reliably set off airport metal detectors, and they are completely safe if you ever need an MRI scan.
