Specialist Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon

Dr BENJAMIN KOFI OTENG-BOATENG

BDS Hons (Otago, NZ), MBChB (Auckland, NZ), MSurg (Sydney), FRACDS(OMS)
As an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon, I have the qualifications, training, skills, and experience to perform a wide range of surgical procedures. I can skillfully remove impacted wisdom teeth to relieve pain and infection or insert dental implants to restore function and recreate a beautiful smile. I can also reposition someone’s jaws after careful surgical planning, to improve their appearance, speech, chewing, and self-esteem. Another part of my job I find very rewarding is delicately reconstructing the face of someone who has been involved in an accident.

Patient Portal

The patient portal is where as a patient of OFIS, you can complete relevant documents and access information relating to your upcoming treatment and hospital admission. Relevant questionnaires and post-operative instructions are also accessible. 

Your procedure can be performed at the clinic, using either local anaesthesia (dental injections) or intravenous sedation for a calm “twilight sleep” experience. For procedures requiring general anaesthesia, we operate at Sydney Southwest Private Hospital in Liverpool, Camden Surgical Hospital, Victoria Street Private Hospital in Wollongong, Wollongong Day Surgery or Southern Highlands Private Hospital.

Your surgeon will walk you through your treatment options, wht to expect after the surgery, and any potential risks involved. 

Before your visit, please fill out the medical questionnaire through our online form to ensure we have all the information we need to provide the best care possible.
