What is Oral Health?
The Oral Health Department provides specialist care for conditions affecting the teeth, jaws, face and oral structures. Led by a Paediatric Dental Surgeon and an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon, the team delivers integrated, patient‑centred care across a wide range of clinical needs.
Paediatric dental services focus on the comprehensive management of complex oral and surgical conditions in children, with particular expertise in treating medically compromised patients, those with special needs and children experiencing dental anxiety. Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery services provide advanced care for conditions affecting the jaws and facial structures, including trauma, functional jaw disorders and restorative surgical solutions. Together, the team delivers safe, multidisciplinary care that supports long‑term oral health.
