Surgical Management of Complex Dentofacial Deformities: Advanced Orthognathic Techniques and Atypical Osteotomies, (Hardcover)

Contemporary orthognathic surgery texts predominantly emphasize conventional techniques and routine dentofacial deformities. However, the management of complex craniofacial conditions frequently requires advanced decision-making and surgical approaches that extend beyond traditional paradigms. <p></p> This textbook provides a comprehensive and systematic approach to the management of complex dentofacial deformities, with particular emphasis on atypical orthognathic osteotomies. Techniques that are often underrepresented or absent in standard references--including intraoral inverted L osteotomies, C-osteotomies, total subapical osteotomies, and corticotomy-assisted approaches are presented in detail, with a focus on indications, execution, and integration into broader treatment plans.<p></p> In addition to surgical technique, this work uniquely emphasizes the interdisciplinary management of patients with complex craniofacial and dental conditions, including cleft-related deformities, amelogenesis imperfecta, oligodontia, and hypodontia. It is designed to serve as a collaborative resource not only for oral and maxillofacial surgeons, but also for orthodontists, periodontists, prosthodontists, plastic surgeons, and otolaryngologists involved in the comprehensive care of these patients.<p></p> The textbook is authored by an international group of experienced clinicians, reflecting a broad range of perspectives and practices in the treatment of complex dentofacial deformities. <p></p> With the evolution of virtual surgical planning, patient-specific implants, craniofacial prosthetics, and advanced orthodontic biomechanics, clinicians now possess an expanded armamentarium for managing these challenging cases. This text captures these advancements and provides a structured framework for incorporating them into contemporary clinical practice. It is intended to serve as both a practical reference and an academic foundation for clinicians seeking to optimize functional and aesthetic outcomes in the management of complex dentofacial deformities.<p></p>
