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 mouth is an important organ with many different functions. It is also prone to a variety of medical and dental disorders. The specialty oral and maxillofacial pathology is concerned with diagnosis and study of the causes and effects of diseases affecting the oral and maxillofacial region. It is sometimes considered to be a specialty of dentistry and pathology.
