Abstract
The oral function after maxillofacial reconstruction using microvascular tissue transplantation was investigated by a questionnaire survey of 335 oral and maxillofacial surgery centers in Japan. The patient's speech. mastication and deglutition were evaluated and classified as good. almost good, and poor. The number of reported cases was 220. Among these. The rates of good and almost good were 98.2% for speech. 89.1% for mastication, and 95.4% for deglutition. These results were considered to indicate satisfactory oral functions after surgery.
