Pediatric Dentist & Pediatric Oral Surgery in Faridabad

Some conditions affecting a child’s teeth, mouth, jaws or face require surgical expertise in addition to routine pediatric dental care. At The Smile Surgeon – Face Surgery & Dental Clinic, pediatric dentists and oral and maxillofacial surgeons coordinate treatment whenever both specialties are required.
 

Pediatric oral and maxillofacial surgical care is provided by Dr (Capt) Prabuddh Sen, MDS (Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery). Depending on the child’s condition and the complexity of treatment, procedures may be performed at the clinic or at an associated hospital with appropriate medical and pediatric support.
