Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery gives a concise and structured overview of current maxillofacial practice, concerned with the diagnosis and surgical treatment of diseases affecting the mouth, jaws, face and neck. It is illustrated throughout with line diagrams and photographs to aid understanding of the procedures. The book is particularly useful to trainees in maxillofacial surgery at both junior and senior level, working towards the MFJDS and the FRCS and comprehensively covers the syllabus for exit FRCS ( OMFS). It will also be of interest to interested doctors and dentists and other health professionals. It is co-authored by a team of consultants who have clinical interests encompassing the breadth of the speciality and who are actively involved in teaching, both nationally and internationally.
