Perforator Flap in Oral Maxillofacial & Head and Neck Reconstruction This book is aimed to introduce the application of perforator flaps with different donor sites in the reconstructive surgery of oral maxillofacial surgery & head and neck (OMS & HN). Meanwhile, we also explore the other aspects of perforator including anatomy, ultrasonic, iconography, microsurgical anastomosis, perioperative nursing, et al. This book systemically narrates how to use common perforator flaps to surgical reconstruction of defects following tumor ablation in OMS & HN. What’s more, we intend to convey the idea that perforator flap is an ideal choice for OMS & HN reconstruction as compared to traditional flaps. OMS & HN surgeons participate in the perforator flap application and investigation on reconstruction surgery with multidisciplinary cooperation.

Esthetic Implant Restoration in the Edentulous Maxilla The simplified clinical protocols described in this book represent a revolution in the esthetic rehabilitation of the edentulous maxilla that updates the knowledge base and corrects outdated principles deeply rooted in the profession. The treatment strategy is prosthetically driven and tailored to address the anatomical realities of any clinical situation. The authors emphasize use of a comprehensive esthetic analysis and the careful management of the essential preparatory phases, and they outline the esthetic design principles and clinical methodology for different treatment options.

A Guide to Good Occlusal Practice: A Guide to Good Practice (BDJ Clinician’s Guides) Second Edition This book considers occlusion within the different disciplines of clinical dentistry, taking into account the challenges specific to each, in order to develop guidelines of good occlusal practice (GGOP). The GGOP for each discipline has benefited from an authoritative contribution of a recognised specialist in that field. Readers will find full description of what constitutes good occlusal practice in, for example, simple and advanced restorative dentistry, removable prosthodontics, the restoration of the worn dentition and implantology. It is clearly explained why and how the GGOP differ in the various branches of dentistry, the key point being that it is the support for the occlusal surfaces that determines GGOP. One of the foundations of this work is that an occlusion can only be judged by the tissue reactions to it: there is no such thing as an intrinsically bad occlusion or malocclusion.
