Anaplastology provides prosthetic substitutes for lost anatomy; osseointegration makes it possible to stabilize prostheses in a reliable and predictable manner. This book sets an international standard for prosthetic craniofacial rehabilitation by presenting state-of-the-art achievements. Emphasizing the interdisciplinary, the book is composed of two parts. In Part I, patient presentations on auricular, nasal, orbital, and complex defects illustrate the art of prosthetic reconstruction. In Part II, eight representatives of the specialties involved share their experience and advice on how to optimize treatment planning and results using osseointegration to anchor prostheses.
