Surgery will remove your appendix after your infection has been treated. If you have a ruptured abscess or appendix, surgery may be needed right away. Surgery to remove the appendix is called an appendectomy. This procedure can be done as open surgery or laproscopically.
Oral and maxillofacial pathology (also termed oral pathology, stomatognathic disease, dental disease, or mouth disease) refers to the diseases of the mouth (oral cavity or stoma), jaws (maxillae or gnath) and related structures such as salivary glands, temporomandibular joints, facial muscles and perioral skin (the skin around the mouth).
For arthropod maxillae, see Maxilla (arthropod mouthpart). The maxilla (plural: maxillae /mÃ¦kËsÉªliË/) in animals is the upper jawbone formed from the fusion of two maxillary bones. The upper jaw includes the frontal portion of the palate of the mouth. The two maxillary bones are fused at the intermaxillary suture.
