Oral Maxillofacial Surgery Procedures | Scottsboro Cosmetic Surgery Oral maxillofacial surgery procedures can help restore the oral health as well as natural facial look. Dr. Landon McLain is a cosmetic as well as oral and maxillofacial surgeon providing cutting edge procedures in this segment to patients in Huntsville, Madison, Florence, Decatur, Scottsboro, Cullman, Athens, Alabama, and surrounding locations.

Wisdom Teeth Extraction

Wisdom teeth should ideally be removed early in order to prevent potential complications in the future. Mid-teens are the best years for the removal of wisdom teeth because the root development is not yet complete. Therefore, the removal at this stage causes less discomfort and the healing is faster.

Dr. McLain performs wisdom teeth extraction procedure on an outpatient basis in his office. The patient will usually be administered IV sedation or anesthesia. Dr. McLain recommends that all wisdom teeth should preferably be removed in a single procedure in order to prevent additional recovery involved in staged extractions.

Dental Implants

The hardworking and astute Dr. McLain uses only titanium implants to perform the dental implant procedure for superior results. The implant is surgically placed into the jawbone, where it naturally fuses with the bone and creates an enduring foundation for a replacement tooth.

In terms of both form and function, the results with dental implants can be outstanding, as long as the procedure is performed by a top expert in oral/maxillofacial as well as cosmetic surgery. Dr. McLain prefers a flapless technique wherever possible to enable the gum tissue to remain intact. He will also employ CT 3-D imaging in more complex cases to achieve optimal implant placement.

Jaw Surgery

Orthognathic (jaw) surgery is designed to the place the teeth, jawbones and related structures into their ideal anatomical positions. Certain jaw and bite issues may not be corrected with orthodontics alone. Dr. McLain will perform jaw surgery in such cases to correct the position of one or both jaws.

Temporomandibular Joint Disorder or TMD, often called TMJ, is a common ailment in the joints or muscles of the jaws. As far as possible, Dr. McLain will avoid jaw surgery to improve TMD unless the patient is experiencing life-altering pain that can be addressed with a more ideal occlusion.

Facial Trauma Surgery

The goal of facial trauma surgery is to promote rapid healing of the bone, restore normal function of speech, eye, jaw and nose, and create aesthetically pleasing facial and dental results. Facial trauma surgery may include resetting broken bones, reconstructing facial or oral structure, and replacing missing teeth with dental implants.

The sagacious and reliable Dr. McLain may also perform cosmetic surgery to restore the natural facial appearance. He provides a complete range of care for facial and oral injuries, from tooth and socket fractures to extensive facial lacerations and fractures.

Top Plastic Surgery Procedures

The need to look appealing has been one of the most innate needs of a human being ever since civilization began. But this desire is challenged by the forces of aging, the environment, unhealthy lifestyles, stress, disease, and heredity. Some of these aspects are within people’s control and some of them are not.

This is where cosmetic surgery as well as non-surgical cosmetic procedures can address an individual’s need to have a desirable physical appearance.

Over the last few decades, cosmetic procedures have become much more accessible and affordable because of the advances in surgical technology. Millions of women and men in the US now enjoy the benefits of these procedures every year.

Women have traditionally chosen these procedures to enhance their looks, but now a growing number of men are also seeking these treatments to boost their appearance and self-image.

Experienced and adtroit cosmetic surgeon Dr. Landon McLain provides a wide range of invasive as well as non-invasive cosmetic procedures for the face, breast and body to patients in Huntsville, Madison, Florence, Decatur, Scottsboro, Cullman, Athens, Alabama, and surrounding communities in this part of the American southeast.

Consistent Growth

The popularity of cosmetic surgery procedures in the US has consistently risen over the last many years. Cosmetic surgery is now one of the pre-eminent industries impacting the lives of a lot of people.

In 2016, Americans spent over $15 billion on cosmetic surgical and non-surgical procedures and this number should increase with lower taxes, lower health care costs, and a rising economy which should occur in 2017 and the years afterward, which represented an increase of 11 percent over the previous year. These are the latest figures published by the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) in its new multi-specialty statistical report.

According to ASAPS research, about 56 percent of these procedures were related to cosmetic surgery, while the remaining 44 percent were non-surgical cosmetic treatments. The figure of $15 billion is the largest amount invested in these procedures in a single year ever since ASAPS instituted its annual Cosmetic Surgery National Data Bank Statistics survey about 20 years ago. But again, if America hits 3% GDP and so on which it should by 2018 (it has only been around 0.8% in 2015 and 2016, for example), this $15 billion number could be surpassed.

ASAPS researchers say that the aesthetic aspirations of American people are undergoing a rapid change, and the trend is increasingly in favor of more subtle treatments. For instead, many women now want to choose fat transfer breast augmentation to make their breasts appear more attractive because they feel the results with traditional breast implants may appear too pronounced. The demand for breast lift is also on the rise because it is a relatively subtle procedure.

However, one must not interpret from these trends that the demand for breast augmentation is declining in absolute terms. More women still prefer traditional breast implant surgery, and it continues to rank as the second most popular cosmetic surgery in the US after liposuction.

Surgeries once considered niche, such as vaginal rejuvenation, are now becoming mainstream. Men now seek procedures ranging from neck lift to liposuction to jaw contouring.

Most In-Demand Procedures

According to the ASAPS research, the five most in-demand procedures in 2016 for both women and men combined, include:

Liposuction – 414,335 procedures
Breast Augmentation – 310,444 procedures
Tummy Tuck – 181,540 procedures
Eyelid Surgery – 173,883 procedures
Breast Lift – 161,412 procedures
