Tissue-Engineered Maxillofacial Reconstruction: Focus on Bone

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Contemporary Oral Oncology

Abstract

There are two main principles for maxillofacial reconstruction. The reconstructive surgery should provide form and enable function of oromaxillofacial (OMF) region. The facial skeleton has an extreme complex structure, and reconstruction should restore volume, shape, bone continuity and symmetry of bone skeleton. On the other hand, OMF soft and hard tissues enable several functions like mimics, mastication, swallowing and articulation. The reconstruction should be considered as marriage of both aesthetic and reconstructive objectives.
