The Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Division has a long tradition at the Hallands hospital Halmstad and patients can be offered advanced surgical care. The consultant surgeons provide a service to the County of Halland and to patients referred from other areas in Sweden, and in Europe.

Jaws with deficient bone volume can be restored using autogenous bone grafts. This procedure makes it possible to place titanum implants and rehabilitate the patients with fixed bridgework or a removable overdenture. Since 1986, reconstructive surgery of this kind has been performed on a great number of patients.

The experience acquired from our reconstructive works in maxillae in an advanced state of atrophy is well documented and is published in international scientific journals.
