Facial Reconstructive Surgery

Either through accident or illness such as benign or malignant facial or jaw tumors, many patients can present with disfiguring and debilitating facial defects. Dr. Kalant has a great deal of experience in facial and jaw reconstructive surgery for patients with these difficult problems. Such post traumatic or post tumor resection deformities often require extensive soft tissue and bone graft reconstruction to replace missing anatomic structures and restore function.

Oral and Maxillofacial surgeons, such as Dr. Kalant, offer a unique perspective as they are as much concerned with excellent function as well as the overall aesthetic appearance of the face and jaws of their patients. Dr. Kalant is well versed in the latest technology available for facial reconstructive surgery. Such techniques include craniofacial implants which utilizes techniques learned from years of placing dental implants to actually replace missing parts of the facial anatomy (i.e. ears, nose and eyes).
