Distraction Osteogenesis of the Facial Skeleton

Distraction Osteogenesis is one of today's hottest topics in orthodontics and oral and maxillofacial surgery. The paradigm in orthognathic surgery has shifted in a way that it is now possible to perform distraction osteogenesis in an outpatient basis. This book highlights the application of distraction osteogenesis in repositioning of teeth with special reference to latest techniques. This book will serve as guide or reference to practicing clinicians, orthodontist, oral and maxillofacial surgeons. I hope that you find the information in this book to be interesting, relevant and of practical use.
