Intraoral Microvascular Anastomosis of an Iliac Free Flap for Maxillary Fibrous Dysplasia.

Microvascular reconstruction offers patients with facial deformities excellent composite tissue restoration and improves functional outcomes. However, such techniques require facial skin incisions, leaving the patient with unsightly scarring. Implementing an intraoral microvascular anastomosis can obviate the need for facial skin incisions, yielding aesthetically favorable results.

Dentoalveolar trauma.

Dentoalveolar injuries are an important and common component of craniomaxillofacial trauma. The dentition serves as a vertical buttress of the face and fractures to this area may result in malalignment of facial subunits. Furthermore, the dentition is succedaneous with 3 phases-primary dentition, mixed dentition, and permanent dentition-mandating different treatment protocols.
