Overview:

Dental/Prosthetic Involvement in Multidisciplinary Approach in Head and Neck Cancer Treatment
Presented By: Harry Reintsema DDS, PhD

Date: Wednesday, November 28, 2018
Time: 07:30 AM CET

Overview: Maxillofacial Prosthetics (MFP) is the discipline within dentistry taking care of the dental care/rehabilitation of oral and craniofacial defects and abnormalities in congenital and acquired conditions. In Head and Neck Oncology Care MFP preferably becomes involved already in the diagnostic stage together with other rehabilitative disciplines like plastic surgery, to be able to obtain an optimal result to keep or regain functional capacities and quality of life after treatment for head and neck tumors.

Dental/Prosthetic rehabilitation in making intra and extra-oral (defect) prostheses has evolved rapidly over the last years, e.g. using implants for retention of former instable prostheses. Also prosthetic planning has become a keystone for surgical planning; digital technology has shown to be helpful and can ease many steps.

In this ISMR Webinar the care path for Head and Neck Oncology patients as used in the UMC Groningen and the above will be elucidated.
