JAMMU, Oct 5: AIIMS Jammu marked a significant milestone with the successful conduct of its first Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, under the esteemed leadership of Prof. (Dr.) Shakti Kumar Gupta, Executive Director and CEO of AIIMS Jammu. The surgical procedure involved the enucleation of a large odontogenic cyst, provisionally diagnosed as an Odontogenic Keratocyst, in the right maxilla. The surgery, followed by chemical cauterization, was performed under general Anaesthesia.
The surgical team was led by Dr. Amanjot Kaur, Assistant Professor of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, with the Anaesthesia team headed by Dr. Raksha Kundal and Dr. Sandeepika.
This achievement marks the beginning of a new chapter for the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at AIIMS Jammu. The Department aims to expand its services to include advanced procedures such as TMJ ankylosis surgery, Total Joint Replacement (TJR), Genioplasty, Bilateral Sagittal Split Osteotomy (BSSO), Lefort surgeries, and Distraction Osteogenesis (DO), among others.
Prof. (Dr.) Saurabh Kumar Gupta, Head of the Department of Dentistry, congratulated Dr. Amanjot Kaur and her team for this significant accomplishment, which enhances the department's profile.
With the initiation of oral and maxillofacial surgeries, AIIMS Jammu will now cater to patients with maxillofacial problems across the regions of Jammu & Kashmir, Punjab, Leh-Ladakh, and Himachal Pradesh. Dr. Amanjot Kaur expressed that the department's outpatient services are already seeing strong patient response. She emphasized that the upcoming introduction of TMJ and jaw correction surgeries will bring great relief to patients from Jammu & Kashmir and neighboring states, eliminating the need to seek treatment outside the region. |
