During the past 20 years, distraction osteogenesis has emerged as a useful alternative for the management of skeletofacial insufficiencies. Among the plethora of therapeutic alternatives for correcting bony defects, distraction osteogenesis is a surgical technique that uses the human body's own repairing machinery as an ally for tissue reconstruction under a controlled approach. Pioneered by the Russian surgeon Ilizarov in the 1950s, this technique has found widespread use in the treatment of both syndromic and non-syndromic facial deformity. It is relatively a new procedure with few long term follow up studies reported. A brief compilation of the facts of this relatively new technique, importance of a multi-specialty team and role of orthodontist has been made.

Clinical Guide to Principles of Fiber-Reinforced Composites in Dentistry
<p>Traditional dental materials such as metals and ceramics have a number of disadvantages such as cost and the significant damage caused in grinding to make space for such reconstructions. Fiber-reinforced composites (FRCs) are a novel group of dental materials characterized by fibrous fillers that are being increasingly used in place of traditional prosthodontic materials. They allow fabrication of minimally invasive, lightweight, durable and biocompatible restorations. This book will provide clinicians and students with theoretical and clinical guidelines to use the FRCs for dental applications.</p> <p>The book begins with an introduction to the fundamentals of FRCs in dentistry. Further chapters cover the treatment possibilities, fabrication and application procedures of FRCs, followed by information on care and maintenance.</p>
