Helping you understand Our healthcare
A Maxillectomy is surgery to remove part or all of the upper jaw (maxilla).
A Mandibulectomy is surgery to remove part or all of the lower jaw (mandible).
These surgeries treat cancers of the mouth that have spread to the jaw bones.
When oral cancer affects the jaw bone, simply removing the surface tumor is not enough. The involved bone must be removed to reduce the risk of the cancer returning.
Tobacco chewing and smoking (very common in India)
Excessive alcohol use
Poor oral hygiene, ill-fitting dentures, or chronic mouth irritation
Some cases may be linked to HPV infection
The surgeon removes the cancerous bone and surrounding tissues.
Maxillectomy: Removes part or full upper jaw, sometimes including the palate or sinus area.
Mandibulectomy: Removes part or full lower jaw bone.
Lymph nodes may also be removed if cancer has spread.
🦷 Reconstruction is often done using bone grafts or tissue flaps.
Some change in appearance is common.
Surgeons try to reconstruct the jaw using tissue from other parts of your body to maintain your face shape and help with speech and eating.
