Oral and Maxillofacial Reconstruction

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Oral Cancer

Abstract

The content of this chapter does not include general textbook or ordinary items understandable by everyone. No general flap elevation or reconstruction method is described. Described are practices of pre- and postoperative management of oral and maxillofacial reconstructive surgery and in the operation room. The sole objective of the practices is to clarify how to prepare reconstruction materials reliably, safely, and efficiently, to restore defecting oral and maxillofacial regions, and maintain the reconstructed condition. This chapter has been written for reconstructive surgeons already performing surgeries at the forefront of the field of oral and maxillofacial reconstructive surgery.
