Oral and maxillofacial surgery is a specialized branch of dentistry that focuses on the diagnosis and surgical management of conditions affecting the face, jaws, mouth and neck. Some of the key procedures which are undertaken within this area of medicine are orthognathic surgery, management of facial trauma and the extraction of impacted teeth. Orthognathic surgery aims to correct severe abnormalities of the jaw and facial structures, including problems with biting, chewing, speech and facial balance. The management of facial trauma involves treating facial injuries resulting from accidents, sports-related incidents or assaults. Treatment of oral and facial infections also takes place within this field of medicine. In this book, using case studies and examples, constant effort has been made to make the understanding of the difficult concepts of oral and maxillofacial surgery as easy and informative as possible, for the readers. It will help new researchers by foregrounding their knowledge in this area of study.
