Langdon: Operative Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery 2nd edition






Operative Maxillofacial Surgery was first published in 1998, and within a very short period it became the standard text for trainees in oral & maxillofacial surgery preparing for their exit examinations.
For this second edition, the contents have been extensively revised not only to include all aspects of oral surgery but also to reflect the changes in maxillofacial practice that have occurred since 1998. In particular, the role of osseointegrated implants, the management of craniofacial trauma and facial aesthetic surgery including 'cosmetic' surgery and bone distraction have all moved on since the first edition was written. The editors have made a careful selection of contributors representing current practice from throughout the world including continental Europe, the United States, Asia and Australia.
Operative Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery represents international best practice in the specialty. Each chapter has been written by an internationally recognised expert and represents a 'how I do it' master class. It is illustrated with clear line diagrams supplemented where appropriate with clinical photographs showing the essential steps in all the surgical procedures in current clinical practice. Authors have kept to a standard template, ensuring a minimum of discussion and an emphasis on surgical technique.

The definitive surgical manual in the field, Operative Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery will appeal to trainees, young specialists and established experts not only in oral & maxillofacial surgery but also the related specialties of otorhinolaryngology and plastic surgery.
