Area of Science:

  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
  • Head and Neck Surgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Mandibular reconstruction techniques have advanced considerably.
  • The field continues to evolve with new technologies and surgical methods.

Approach:

  • This review examines the history and biomechanics of the mandible.
  • It summarizes reconstruction options, defect classification, donor sites, and dental rehabilitation.

Key Points:

  • Autogenous bone grafts and microsurgery have revolutionized oromandibular reconstruction.
  • Achieving a solid arch is crucial for restoring speech, swallowing, and mastication.
  • Current trends aim to improve mandibular form and jaw relationships with less invasive techniques.

Conclusions:

  • Oromandibular reconstruction is now reliable, yielding excellent functional and aesthetic results.
  • Controversies remain regarding optimal donor site selection, surgical timing, and reconstruction methods.
