This book contains a concise collection of the most important oral and maxillofacial surgery classifications and lists. Such classifications help to describe diseases in a comprehensible, measurable, validated and reproducible manner and are the first step towards a systematic approach for treating specific conditions. Elsewhere in this book, lists provide clinical guidance on key subspecialty topics.
Using subdivisions such as trauma, head and neck cancer, and orthognathic surgery, this is a succinct and easy-to-use guide for the head and neck clinician.
Used as a reference tool, this book will be a valuable resource for both the surgical trainee and those working in ward rounds and outpatient clinics, or before surgery.
