كتاب Fragiskos Oral Surgery

It is my strong belief that writing a textbook constitutes an obligation for the academician towards his students, as well as towards his colleagues who are in search of continuing education. Keeping this obligation in mind and given the developments in the field of oral and maxillofacial surgery and the recent impressive achievements in technology that have been noted, the writing of this book, which was based on the many years of experience of the author and contributors as well as the pertinent contemporary international bibliography concerning oral surgery, was considered imperative. This book aims to give the dental student and the general practitioner practical guidance in the form of an atlas, which includes surgical procedures that may be performed in the dental office. The practical format of this book has obliged us to limit the extent of theory and detailed description of techniques. Instead, we opted for numerous figures and a detailed step-by-step analysis employing illustrations of each surgical technique, keeping in mind that, in this type of book, a picture is undoubtedly more important than words. The material is divided into 16 chapters which include: medical history; radiographic examination in oral surgery; principles of surgery; equipment, instruments and materials; simple tooth extraction; surgical tooth extraction; surgical extraction of impacted teeth; perioperative and postoperative complications; odontogenic infections; preprosthetic surgery; biopsy and histopathological examination; surgical treatment of radicular cysts; apicoectomy; surgical treatment of salivary gland lesions; osseointegrated implants; and prophylactic and therapeutic use of antibiotics in dentistry. Selective references are cited at the end of each chapter. Distinguished colleagues have contributed to the writing of certain chapters relevant to their field of specialization. I would like to especially thank the following for their valuable contribution: Dr. H. Giamarellou, Professor in Internal Medicine and Infectious Diseases, School of Medicine, University of Athens, Greece, for her contribution as a co-author of Chap. 16 “Prophylactic and Therapeutic Use of Antibiotics in Dentistry.” Dr. C. Alexandridis, Professor and Chairman, Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, School of Dentistry, University of Athens, Greece, for writing Chap. 12, “Surgical Treatment of Radicular Cysts” and his contribution as a co-author of Chap. 15, “Osseointegrated Implants.” Dr. E.
