Current Therapy In Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Current Therapy In Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery


Written by expert surgeons and educators, Current Therapy in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery covers the latest treatment
strategies, surgical techniques, and potential complications in OMS. Emphasizing an evidence-based approach, it covers
all 12 subspecialties of OMS, addressing topics from surgical principles to oral surgery, anesthesia, cranio-
maxillofacial trauma surgery, head and neck surgery, maxillofacial reconstructive surgery, orthognathic surgery,
pediatric craniofacial surgery including cleft lip and palate, temporomandibular joint disorders, facial plastic
surgery including rhinoplasty and facelifts, obstructive sleep apnea, and oral and maxillofacial infections. At the end
of each chapter, Pearls and Pitfalls summarize the authors' insight, recommendations, and experience on that topic.
Editor Dr. Shahrokh Bagheri is a noted professor, researcher, and speaker on OMS, and he leads an expert author team
including Dr. R. Bryan Bell and Dr. Husain Ali Khan to help you master and apply the latest advances in OMS.
