Product Description

This book reviews the dramatic disorders that present in the head and face. It discusses the real difficulty in understanding pain when the number of patients with ideopathic disorders, far outnumber those who present with conditions that are well understood. Chronic orofacial symptoms, including pain, ulceration, disturbances in jaw movement, and problems with sensation or salivation, are often revealed to be the result of emotional problems. This book reviews the ways patients with emotional problems present to dental practitioners and maxillofacial surgeons. It provides practical advice to help these clinicians recognise the orofacial manifestations of psychiatric disorders and explains the different approaches to treatment. The book covers clinical situations ranging from how to deal with anxious patients, the patient with stress-related head, face and mouth pain, to the patient who wishes to change their appearance by either an orthodontic, or orthognathic approach. The chief author and guest contributors to this book represent a variety of disciplines, including dental practitioners, restorative specialists, orthodontists, maxillofacial surgeons, psychiatrists and psychologists, all of whom have a contribution to make to the management of these patients.
