FAQs
A cochlear implant is an electronic medical device that replaces the function of the damaged inner ear (cochlea). It can benefit individuals with severe to profound hearing loss who do not gain sufficient benefit from conventional hearing aids.
Sialendoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat salivary gland disorders, including the removal of salivary gland stones. It involves the use of a thin, flexible endoscope to navigate the salivary ducts and extract stones, preserving the gland and reducing recovery time.
Treatment options for sleep apnea include lifestyle modifications, use of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) devices, and surgical interventions. Dr. Sumit Mrig specializes in surgeries for snoring and sleep apnea disorders, offering personalized solutions based on the severity and cause of the condition.
