Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery encompasses so much more than just extractions. This chapter outlines the basic principles of atraumatic extractions, bone preservation, pre-prosthetic surgery, and basic oral pathology procedures. It would be prudent for a general dentist to also be familiar with the basic management of acute facial swellings and abscesses.
