Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is a medical subspecialty that can help treat diseases and disorders of the face, head, neck, and soft tissues of the jaw. It can include surgical and non-surgical interventions for issues of this sort. While it is generally considered a subspecialty of medicine, it is also closely related to dentistry. In fact, some oral and maxillofacial surgeons may even work with dental problems or in conjunction with dentists to solve oral and dental complications.

A plastic surgeon is a medical professional who specializes in reconstructing and improving physical appearances. They may also perform reconstructive surgery on patients who have had accidents or health problems that have caused them to need a prosthesis or another type of surgery. When someone is injured or suffers a deformity or problem caused by an illness, disease, or birth defect, the plastic surgeon can repair it.
