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).
The bone tissue of the maxilla (upper jawbone) and the mandible (lower jawbone) that surrounds the roots of the teeth; contains a series of alveoli (sockets)- one for each tooth; the tooth does not touch the alveolus due to the periodontal ligament.
