Omar B. Kujan is an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon based in Nedlands, WA. He works from 17 Monash Avenue, Nedlands, in Australia.
In day to day practice, Dr Kujan looks after problems that affect the mouth, jaws, and nearby areas of the face and neck. This can include ongoing mouth changes that need a careful look, like leukoplakia and lichen planus. At times, these issues can be linked with pain, sores, or patches that just don’t settle.
He also helps manage cancers in the head and neck area, including head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and oral squamous cell carcinoma. When someone is dealing with a suspected or confirmed cancer, the goal is to move through the next steps clearly and calmly, with a plan for assessment and treatment.
Some patients come in with long term mouth conditions as well. Oral submucous fibrosis is one example. It can change how the mouth opens and how comfortable day to day eating and speaking feels. In many cases, early review matters, especially when symptoms slowly build over time.
There are also less common conditions that may affect the face and oral structures. Dr Kujan works with families and patients who have conditions such as acrofacial dysostosis (including Catania type, Nager type, and Rodriguez type), and acrofrontofacionasal dysostosis syndrome. He also sees patients with Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome and cerebral hypoxia, where mouth and facial concerns may be part of the bigger health picture.
Because these conditions can vary a lot from person to person, care often needs to be practical and patient focused. Appointments are usually about listening to what’s happening, checking the area thoroughly, and then talking through what options might fit best.
Dr Kujan’s work sits within the oral and maxillofacial surgery space, which means he’s trained to deal with both the surgical side of care and the wider effects on the mouth and face.
