Maxillofacial defects may be congenital or acquired and may be caused by surgical interventions for neoplasms. Because of the localisations of these defects, aesthetic problems may occur so it becomes impossible for the patients to continue their daily lives. Losing a part of the face or having a congenital defect may play a negative effect on the social life and psychology of the patient. It also affects the function adversely. Maxillofacial prostheses aim is to maintain the health of the hard and soft tissues and to improve the aesthetics of patients. But completing the process is tiring both for the patient and the prosthodontist. There is a large and rapidly growing literature on maxillofacial prosthodontics in clinical practice. In this book, brief descriptions of recent developments in the maxillofacial practice are discussed. References are provided at the end of each chapter and listed alphabetically. For clinicians, this book provides a broad perspective on prosthodontics, their possible applications and interactions between special clinics, and suggestions about future research topics, which will be helpful to their research.Regardless of your background, whether youre a prosthodontist or a plastic surgeon, you will find the book appropriate to your needs. In this book, there are basic principles of maxillofacial prostheses and colouring, and information on patients perspectives on the prosthetic treatment. Also discussed is the importance of the prosthodontist-patient relationship. This book will be a guide for the prosthodontist and their approach to the patients.

This is the first textbook to offer a comprehensive account of ocular prosthetics and the evidence used to underpin and support this field of healthcare. It does so by bringing together information from ophthalmology, prosthetic eye and contact lens literature, and from experts actively engaged in these fields. The book describes the psychological, anatomical and physiological aspects of eye loss as well as surgical procedures for removing the eye, patient evaluation, constructing prosthetic eyes (including prosthetic and surgical techniques for dealing with socket complications), the socket’s response to prosthetic eyes, prosthetic eye maintenance and the history of prosthetic eyes. Though primarily intended for prosthetists, ophthalmologists, ophthalmic nurses, optometrists and students in the fields of ocular medicine, maxillofacial medicine and anaplastology, the book also offers a useful resource for other health workers and family members who care for prosthetic eye patients, and for those patients seeking a deeper understanding of the issues affecting them than they can find elsewhere.

This book, which offers a truly multidisciplinary approach to cancer care and research, provides the reader with insights into the etiologies of cancer as well as the latest developments in reconstructive surgery, maxillofacial prosthetics, and dental care. In this updated edition, new chapters present information on digital technology and tissue engineering, reflecting the impact of computer-aided design and manufacturing and molecular biology on current and future treatment strategies. In addition, all chapters have undergone significant revision, reflecting the knowledge and sophistication gained over the last few years in the use of osseointegrated implants, free vascularized flaps, and dental management of the irradiated patient, among other topics. The reader will take away practical knowledge of state-of-the-art treatment approaches to ensure that future patients will no longer complain that "the cure was worse than the disease."
