In the treatment of mandibular fractures, 'intermaxillary fixation,' which involves wiring the upper and lower teeth together, is often performed. This can significantly impact patients' daily lives, restricting eating and conversation for several weeks. Such treatments can lead to a decrease in patients' quality of life (QOL) and delays in social reintegration, often placing a burden on both patients and medical professionals.
Dr. Ryo Sasaki, lecturer at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Tokyo Women's Medical University, has now published a specialized book titled 'Surgical Techniques for Mandibular Fractures - Aiming for Intermaxillary Fixation-Free Early Recovery -', which summarizes a surgical strategy for mandibular fracture treatment that aims to avoid intermaxillary fixation as much as possible and promote the patient's early social reintegration.
Based on clinical experience, this book systematically explains everything from pre-operative evaluation, surgical procedure selection, specific surgical techniques, to post-operative management. It presents a treatment strategy that does not rely on conventional long-term intermaxillary fixation and introduces a new approach aiming to reduce patient burden and promote early recovery.
This book is a practical guide not only for oral surgeons and plastic surgeons who routinely handle mandibular fractures but also for young doctors and residents who wish to learn about maxillofacial trauma in depth.
