1. Advanced Dental Implants & Permanent Tooth Replacement
Missing teeth impact your bite, facial structure, and self-confidence. Led by Asst. Prof. Dr. Shahzad Hussain, our implantology department utilizes medical-grade titanium fixtures to restore your natural chewing function permanently.
Single Tooth Dental Implants
A permanent titanium root replacement crowned with a custom porcelain tooth. Unlike traditional bridges, single implants do not require grinding down adjacent healthy teeth. Review our dental implants guide in Multan to explore procedures and materials.
Multi-Tooth Implant Bridges
When multiple adjacent teeth are missing, strategically placed implants can anchor secure multi-unit bridges. This prevents jawbone resorption and provides structural stability far superior to removable partial dentures.
Lifelong Durability & Biocompatibility
Crafted from premium surgical titanium that integrates naturally with your jawbone through osseointegration, our implants are designed to last a lifetime with proper oral hygiene and regular check-ups at SN Healthcare.
2. All-on-4 & All-on-6 Full Arch Rehabilitations
For patients facing total tooth loss or severe periodontal deterioration, removable dentures can be frustrating and loose. Dr. Shahzad Hussain specializes in fixed full-arch restorations anchored securely on strategic titanium implants.
The All-on-4 Protocol
By placing four precisely angled titanium implants into available jawbone density, we can support an entire arch of fixed teeth. This eliminates the need for individual implants for every missing tooth, maximizing stability while reducing cost and recovery time. Read our All-on-4 vs dentures comparison.
All-on-6 Enhanced Load Distribution
For patients with higher bite forces or greater jawbone volume, utilizing six strategically placed implants offers even distribution of chewing pressure. Dr. Shahzad evaluates your CBCT scans to determine whether All-on-4 or All-on-6 is ideal for your anatomy.
Permanent Comfort & Bone Health
Unlike removable acrylic dentures that slip or require messy adhesives, All-on-4 arches are fixed permanently in place—you brush and care for them just like natural teeth. Furthermore, the implants stimulate your jawbone, preventing the facial sagging associated with tooth loss.
3. Complex Extractions & Pre-Prosthetic Surgery
From surgically extracting horizontally impacted wisdom teeth to regenerating lost jawbone volume, Dr. Shahzad Hussain performs intricate pre-prosthetic procedures to prepare your mouth for lifelong dental restorations.
Painless Wisdom Tooth Extraction
Impacted or severely angled third molars can cause excruciating pain, crowding, and infection. Using precise surgical sectioning and profound anesthesia, we remove problematic wisdom teeth with minimal trauma, ensuring a swift and comfortable recovery.
Alveolar Bone Grafting
When teeth have been missing for years, the jawbone begins to resorb and shrink. Dr. Shahzad utilizes advanced osteoinductive bone grafts and guided tissue regeneration (GTR) membranes to rebuild lost bone width and height, creating a solid foundation for future dental implants.
Maxillary Sinus Lift Surgery
The upper back jaw often lacks sufficient bone depth for implants due to its proximity to the sinus cavity. Through a specialized sinus floor elevation procedure, we gently lift the sinus membrane and insert bone graft material, safely expanding the bone volume required for secure implant anchoring.
4. Facial Trauma, Jaw Fractures & TMJ Pathology
Maxillofacial emergencies and chronic joint disorders require immediate, highly specialized surgical intervention. As a leading facial trauma surgeon in Pakistan, Dr. Shahzad Hussain provides tertiary-level management for complex maxillofacial conditions.
Emergency Facial Trauma & Jaw Fractures
Swift and precise management of mandibular (lower jaw), maxillary (upper jaw), and zygomatic (cheekbone) fractures resulting from accidents or trauma. We utilize advanced rigid fixation techniques (titanium mini-plates) to ensure proper bone healing, restore your natural bite, and minimize facial scarring.
TMJ Disorders & Orofacial Pain Management
Chronic jaw pain, clicking joints, locked jaws, and frequent headaches are common signs of Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) dysfunction. Dr. Shahzad provides comprehensive diagnostic evaluations, offering both conservative therapies (custom occlusal splints) and advanced surgical interventions for severe joint deterioration.
Oral Pathology, Cysts & Benign Tumors
Early detection and surgical enucleation of abnormal jaw cysts, mucosal lesions, and benign oral tumors. We perform precise incisional and excisional biopsies with careful histopathological analysis to protect your overall health and preserve surrounding healthy tissue.
5. Corrective Jaw (Orthognathic) Surgery
When skeletal irregularities are too severe for traditional orthodontics (braces) alone, orthognathic surgery physically repositions the jawbones. This dramatically improves chewing function, speaking ability, breathing (sleep apnea), and overall facial symmetry.
As a specialist in complex facial reconstruction, Dr. Shahzad Hussain collaborates closely with our orthodontic lead, Dr. Tabinda Nasir, to provide comprehensive surgical-orthodontic treatment plans for patients across Pakistan.
Request an EvaluationMaxillary & Mandibular Osteotomy (Overbites/Underbites)
Surgical correction for severe skeletal underbites (protruding lower jaw) and overbites (receding lower jaw). By carefully cutting and repositioning the upper jaw (maxilla) or lower jaw (mandible), we secure the bones in their ideal anatomical position using tiny biocompatible titanium plates and screws.
Facial Asymmetry & Genioplasty (Chin Surgery)
Addressing developmental facial imbalances where the jaw or chin grows unevenly. We perform precise osteotomies to center the jawline and Genioplasty (chin advancement or reduction) to restore harmonious facial proportions and correct aesthetic profiles.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) Surgery
For patients suffering from severe sleep apnea that does not respond to CPAP machines, maxillomandibular advancement (MMA) surgery moves the upper and lower jaws forward. This physically enlarges the airway in the back of the throat, offering a permanent surgical cure for breathing obstructions.
Cleft Lip & Palate Reconstruction
Providing specialized pediatric and adult surgical interventions for congenital cleft deformities. Our surgical protocols focus on closing the palatal gaps, grafting bone into the alveolar ridge (gum line) to support future teeth, and restoring functional speech and aesthetic appearance.
6. Oral Pathology, Biopsies & Cancer Screening
The inside of your mouth is lined with a special type of skin (mucosa) that is smooth and coral pink in color. Any alteration in this appearance could be a warning sign for a pathological process, including oral cancer.
As an expert maxillofacial surgeon in Multan, Dr. Shahzad Hussain performs precise diagnostic evaluations, utilizing minimally invasive biopsies to detect abnormalities early.
- Surgical Enucleation: Safe removal of jaw cysts, benign tumors, and lipomas without damaging surrounding nerves.
- Incisional & Excisional Biopsies: Painless tissue sampling sent for rigorous histopathological laboratory analysis.
- Pre-Cancerous Screening: Detection and management of Leukoplakia (white patches) and Erythroplakia (red patches).
When to See a Specialist
7. Sedation Dentistry & Pain-Free Surgical Protocols
We understand that oral surgery can cause immense anxiety. Dr. Shahzad Hussain utilizes advanced pharmacology and Gulf-standard monitoring protocols to ensure your surgical experience in Multan is completely painless and relaxed.
Profound Local Anesthesia
Using the latest generation of anesthetic agents, we ensure the entire surgical site is completely numb before any procedure begins. You will feel pressure, but absolutely zero sharp pain during extractions or implant placements.
Conscious Sedation Options
For patients with severe dental phobia or those undergoing complex, multi-hour full-arch surgeries, we offer safe, controlled conscious sedation. You will remain awake and breathing on your own, but entirely deeply relaxed and unaware of the clinical environment.
Hospital-Grade Asepsis (Class B)
Infection control is non-negotiable. Our instruments undergo rigorous multi-step ultrasonic cleaning and Class-B Autoclave sterilization. We maintain surgical theater-level aseptic protocols to guarantee a zero-infection environment.
Continuous Vitals Monitoring
During all complex maxillofacial interventions and sedation procedures, your blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and pulse are continuously tracked using advanced clinical monitors to ensure total cardiovascular stability and safety.
8. Pre-Prosthetic Surgery & Ridge Augmentation
For a dental prosthesis (like a denture or implant-supported bridge) to function properly and comfortably, the underlying jawbone and gum tissue must be in perfect shape. Dr. Shahzad Hussain performs specialized surgical modifications to prepare your mouth for successful restoration.
⚠️ The Clinical Challenge
Sharp or Uneven Bone Ridges
After teeth are extracted, the healing bone can sometimes leave sharp, uneven crests. This causes severe pain and friction when a hard acrylic denture is placed over the gums.
Severe Bone Resorption (Shrinkage)
If teeth have been missing for a long time, the jawbone shrinks dramatically. This leaves insufficient bone width or height to securely anchor dental implants.
Excessive Gum Tissue
Sometimes, hypertrophic (excessive) soft tissue or high muscle attachments in the mouth prevent a denture from forming a secure suction seal, causing it to fall out while speaking or eating.
✨ Our Surgical Solutions
Alveoloplasty (Bone Smoothing)
A minor surgical procedure where Dr. Shahzad carefully reshapes and smooths the sharp edges of the jawbone, ensuring your new dentures fit comfortably without causing sore spots.
Ridge Augmentation (Bone Grafting)
We surgically place advanced bone graft material to restore the natural width and height of your jawbone ridge, creating a robust, dense foundation capable of supporting permanent titanium implants.
Vestibuloplasty & Frenectomy
Surgical modifications to the soft tissues of the mouth to deepen the space between the lips and the jawbone (vestibule) or release tight muscle pulls, drastically improving denture stability.
9. Pediatric Maxillofacial Care & Orthodontic Impactions
Children and teenagers require a uniquely gentle approach to oral surgery. Working closely with SN Healthcare’s orthodontic department, Dr. Shahzad Hussain safely addresses developmental anomalies and impacted teeth to ensure your child’s smile grows perfectly.
Surgical Exposure of Impacted Canines
Sometimes, adult canine teeth become trapped (impacted) inside the jawbone and cannot erupt normally. We perform a minor surgical procedure to expose the hidden tooth and attach a small orthodontic bracket, allowing our orthodontist to gently guide it into proper alignment.
Supernumerary (Extra) Teeth Removal
The presence of extra teeth (mesiodens) can block the eruption of permanent front teeth or cause severe crowding. We use 3D imaging to precisely locate these hidden extra teeth and safely extract them with minimal disruption to surrounding bone.
Frenectomies (Tongue-Tie Release)
A tight band of tissue under the tongue (ankyloglossia) or upper lip can restrict movement, causing speech impediments or a large gap between the front teeth. A quick, minimally invasive frenectomy releases this tension instantly, restoring normal function.
Gentle Pediatric Extractions
When baby teeth refuse to fall out naturally (over-retained primary teeth) or are severely decayed beyond saving, we provide anxiety-free pediatric extractions using profound local anesthesia and soothing clinical protocols.
10. Oral Infection & Facial Swelling Management
A severe tooth infection or dental abscess can rapidly spread into the deep fascial spaces of the face and neck. Immediate surgical intervention is required to stop the spread of infection, relieve extreme pain, and prevent life-threatening complications.
Seek Immediate Care If: You are experiencing sudden, severe facial swelling, difficulty swallowing, a tight or restricted airway, or a high fever alongside jaw pain. These are signs of a spreading fascial space infection (such as Ludwig’s Angina) requiring urgent maxillofacial triage.
Diagnostic Localization
We utilize advanced digital radiography and clinical palpation to precisely locate the source of the infection, identifying whether it originates from a necrotic tooth pulp, severe periodontal disease, or an impacted wisdom tooth.
Incision & Drainage (I&D)
Under profound local anesthesia, Dr. Shahzad performs a precise surgical incision to immediately drain the purulent abscess. This instantly relieves the severe tissue pressure and drastically reduces throbbing pain.
Source Elimination & Recovery
To prevent recurrence, the infected tooth is either surgically extracted or treated with root canal therapy. We then prescribe a targeted course of broad-spectrum antibiotics to clear any remaining systemic infection.
11. Advanced Diagnostics & 3D Guided Surgery
Maxillofacial surgery demands microscopic precision. SN Healthcare is equipped with cutting-edge digital diagnostic tools to eliminate guesswork, protect vital nerves, and ensure predictable, highly successful surgical outcomes in Multan.
3D CBCT Imaging
Traditional 2D X-rays are insufficient for complex surgeries. We utilize Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) to capture a highly detailed, 360-degree 3D view of your jawbone, sinuses, and nerve pathways prior to any surgical intervention.
Computer-Guided Implants
Using your 3D CBCT scan, Dr. Shahzad virtually plans your implant placement on a computer screen before you even sit in the chair. A custom 3D-printed surgical guide is then created to ensure the titanium fixture is placed with absolute pinpoint accuracy.
Digital Intraoral Scanning
Say goodbye to messy, gag-inducing physical impression molds. We use high-speed intraoral scanners to capture a flawless, full-color digital map of your mouth, ensuring custom crowns, bridges, and prosthetics fit with unparalleled precision.

Frequently Asked Questions
Patient inquiries regarding surgical protocols, qualifications, and recovery.
What is the difference between a dentist and a Maxillofacial Surgeon?
While a general dentist focuses on routine oral health, an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon (OMFS) undergoes several additional years of hospital-based surgical residency (such as the FCPS qualification in Pakistan). Dr. Shahzad Hussain is licensed to perform complex bone grafting, facial trauma reconstruction, jaw repositioning, and advanced implantology.
Do I need a referral to see Dr. Shahzad Hussain?
No referral is necessary. While many dentists in Multan refer their complex extraction and implant cases to SN Healthcare, patients are welcome to book a direct consultation with Dr. Shahzad for any surgical or implant needs.
How do I prepare for oral surgery with sedation?
If you are receiving conscious sedation, you will be instructed to fast (no food or water) for 6 to 8 hours prior to your surgery. You must also bring a responsible adult who can drive you home afterward, as the sedatives will impair your reflexes for several hours.
Is it safe to fly back overseas shortly after dental implant surgery?
Generally, it is safe to fly 48 to 72 hours after standard dental implant placement, once the initial swelling has stabilized. However, for major procedures like sinus lifts, Dr. Shahzad may advise waiting 7 to 10 days due to cabin pressure changes. We will structure your implant treatment plan around your travel itinerary.
Does SN Healthcare treat emergency jaw fractures at night?
We provide urgent triage for severe facial trauma and acute dental infections. If you experience an emergency, please use our Direct WhatsApp line (+92 303 9622288) for immediate guidance on stabilizing the injury before arriving at the clinic.
