Distraction osteogenesis of the facial skeleton download

Distraction osteogenesis DO is a relatively new method of treatment for selected deformities and defects of the oral and facial skeleton. It was first used in In the s, the Russian orthopedic surgeon, Dr.

Gabriel Ilizarov slowly perfected the surgical and postoperative management of distraction osteogenesis treatment to correct deformities and repair defects of the arms and legs. His work went mostly unnoticed until he presented to the Western Medical Society in the mids. Distraction osteogenesis was initially used to treat defects of the oral and facial region in Since then, the surgical and technological advances made in the field of distraction osteogenesis have provided maxillofacial and oral surgeons with a safe and predictable method to treat selected deformities of the oral and facial skeleton.

Simply stated, distraction osteogenesis means the slow movement apart distraction of two bony segments in a manner such that new bone is allowed to fill in the gap created by the separating bony segments.

Distraction osteogenesis surgery is usually done on an outpatient basis with most of the patients going home the same day of surgery. Rapid orthodontics, sophisticated imaging, tissue engineering, principles of bone healing and tissue repair and more are discussed by leaders in the field. Through distraction osteogenesis slow movement , and orthognathic surgery immediate movement , virtually every kind of facial deformity is treatable in a reasonable period of time. Bell, a prime mover in oral and maxillofacial surgery, has collected contributions from first-class academicians and practitioners in the field for this lavishly illustrated volume.

Traitements parodontaux et lasers en omnipratique dentaire. December 12, at am Reply. January 14, at am Reply. Bear says: They are complete books. This is the first volume of its kind, bringing together the pioneers of these revolutionary techniques: an international group of experts present their clinical and laboratory experience with distraction of the cranial vault, orbit, midface and zygoma, and mandible, as well as the principles of distraction, biomechanics, and the physiology of bone healing and remodelling.

With two hundred illustrations, this is a must for all reconstructive plastic, maxillofacial, and oral surgeons. Osteogenesis is a core component of the skeletal system and depends on the well-coordinated proliferation and differentiation of osteogenic cells. Multiple signaling pathways and transcriptional factors tightly regulate the process of osteogenesis.

Any abnormities in bone formation could cause severe disorders such as osteogenesis imperfecta and osteoporosis. Bone regeneration, a complex and well-orchestrated physiological process of osteogenesis, remains a medical challenge in the field of orthopedics and maxillofacial surgery.

This book provides an overview of the current developments in osteogenesis and bone regeneration, including molecular and cellular mechanisms, physical therapies low-level laser, distraction osteogenesis , biological therapies mesenchymal stem cells, stem cell derived exosomes, inflammatory factor, Chinese medicine , as well as tissue engineering approaches promoting bone regeneration by targeting osteogenesis.

Craniofacial Distraction Osteogenesis addresses one of today's hottest topics in orthodontics and oral and maxillofacial surgery! This comprehensive, full-color text presents the latest information on extraoral and intraoral distraction appliances, including tooth-borne, bone-borne, and hybrid fixation methods.

Readers will learn how to minimize or avoid potential complications of osteodistraction by using proper preoperative planning and execution.

It includes detailed discussions of mandibular lengthening and widening, mandibular bone transport, alveolar distraction, maxillary, mid-face, and cranial distraction, and more. An extensive library of case studies collected from world-renowned surgeons demonstrates the clinical application of the various techniques.

Features an expert lead author, Dr. Mikhail Samchukov, who studied under Dr. Gavriel Ilizarov, the inventor of the distraction osteogenesis technique. Includes contributions from world renowned experts in the field such as Dr. Cesar Guerrero, Dr. Martin Chin and Dr. Suzanne Stucki-McCormick. Full colour images demonstrate the use of both extraoral and intraoral tooth-borne devices Includes over 70 cases which showcase successes achieved in patients around the world, and demonstrate the before and after of all techniques described.

Covers a wide range of information about distraction osteogenesis, from its origins in Siberia, to the latest advancements. The book is divided into 12 sections, making it easier for readers to find key topics of interest.
