Abstract

Medical rehabilitation of patients with defects, deformities of the jaws is an urgent problem in reconstructive maxillofacial surgery. Such defects cause significant dysfunctions of the organs of the maxillofacial region, disfigurement of the soft tissues of the lower face zone. A complex problem of maxillofacial surgery is the development of methods for surgical restoration of the integrity of organs and their function. Currently, various surgical methods and materials are used to restore the defect in the jaw bone tissue [12].

Highlights

  • Diagnosis and treatment of mandibular and maxillofacial soft tissue defects and deformities present a challenging problem

  • Autologous grafts are susceptible to partial resorption with loss of their original shape and size, and their removal increases the trauma of surgical intervention [7,11,14]

  • Summarizing the above, we can conclude that multispiral computed tomography is a universal diagnostic apparatus of the new generation with great potential for use in maxillofacial surgery

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Diagnosis and treatment of mandibular and maxillofacial soft tissue defects and deformities present a challenging problem This is determined by the increasing number of injuries and oncological pathologies of the mandible, their combined nature, a significant number of unsatisfactory treatment results, low efficiency of traditional methods of surgical interventions using grafts and implants with deteriorating diagnosis. All of the above determines further search for ways to solve the problem of treatment planning, reconstruction and rehabilitation of patients with lower jaw defects and deformities [5,6,7,8,]. For this purpose, autogenously, conserved allogeneic metatarsal and bone autografts, polymeric synthetic materials in the form of plastics, cements, and silicone compositions are used [3,4]. Late postoperative complications can occur days, months or even years later, if the body's resistance is reduced and the dormant infection is generalized [2, 13]
