1. Persistent Pain or Problems with Wisdom Teeth

Wisdom teeth often become impacted or fail to erupt due to a lack of space. This can lead to:

  • Swelling
  • Pain
  • Infection
  • Difficulty opening the mouth

Our in-house Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon, Dr Krishna Kishore, specialises in safe and precise wisdom tooth extraction, reducing risks such as nerve damage, cyst formation, or repeated infections.
At Aadhya’s Dental, we routinely perform multiple wisdom tooth extractions in a single sitting using advanced safety protocols.

2. Cysts or Tumours in the Mouth or Jaw

A persistent lump, swelling, or unusual growth inside the mouth or jaw requires immediate expert evaluation. Cysts and tumours—whether benign or malignant—must be accurately diagnosed and treated.

Dr Krishna Kishore is skilled in:

  • Jaw cyst removal
  • Soft tissue lesion excision
  • Biopsies and pathology-driven diagnosis
  • Surgical management of jaw tumours

Early detection and expert intervention significantly improve treatment outcomes.

3. Jaw Fractures & Facial Trauma

Injuries involving facial bones need prompt and precise management. Our Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon specialises in treating:

  • Jaw fractures
  • Facial bone injuries
  • Tooth fractures
  • Soft-tissue trauma

Using advanced techniques such as microplating and rigid fixation, Dr Krishna Kishore ensures functional recovery and optimal cosmetic results.

4. TMJ Dysfunction (Jaw Joint Problems)

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) connects the jaw to the skull. TMJ disorders can cause:

  • Jaw pain
  • Clicking or popping sounds
  • Difficulty opening/closing the mouth
  • Headaches or ear pain

Aadhya’s Dental provides comprehensive TMJ disorder management—from conservative therapies to advanced surgical correction—under the expert care of Dr Krishna Kishore.

Our services include:

  • Single tooth implants
  • Multiple implants

  • All-on-4 / All-on-6 implant protocols

6. Jaw Surgery Before or After Orthodontic Treatment

When orthodontic issues arise from skeletal imbalances rather than dental alignment, jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery) is recommended.

Jaw surgery can correct:

  • Underbite and overbite
  • Facial asymmetry
  • Breathing or sleep apnea problems
  • Abnormal jaw growth patterns

Dr Krishna Kishore collaborates closely with orthodontists to plan and execute corrective jaw surgeries for long-term functional and aesthetic improvement.


7. Unexplained Pain or Difficulty Chewing or Speaking

If you experience persistent jaw pain, trouble chewing, speech difficulties, or unexplained symptoms in the jaw or facial region, a maxillofacial evaluation is essential.

With extensive training in diagnosing complex facial conditions, Dr Krishna Kishore provides accurate assessment and advanced treatment solutions.
