Part of the book series: Nutrition and Health ((NH))

Keypoints

  • Dento-alveolar surgeries can have short-term impacts on oral function and ability to eat and drink depending on the location and extent of surgery

  • Maxillofacial trauma results in increased energy and nutrient needs for wound healing; depending on the location and extent of trauma, nutrition support may be needed

  • Treatment following orthognathic surgery typically requires diet consistency modification and additional calories and nutrients for wound healing

  • Patients with cleft lip and palate require modified feeding strategies preoperatively and initially postoperatively

  • Nutrition support following oral surgery is typically achieved using oral liquid nutrition supplements or an enteral tube feeding
