Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The dental care in case of head and neck cancer resection should be accomplished by skilled dentists with focus in prosthetics in cooperation with special skilled dental technicians and a specialist in epithetics. The patient must be introduced to the dentist before operation. Otherwise reconstruction is much more difficult and a gentle treatment for the patient not possible. The dentist can recommend the extraction of teeth intraoperative, which are not necessary for dental rehabilitation. Furthermore a perfect model made from dental imprints before operation is very useful in every step of reconstruction. Concerted sessions including the patient, the surgeon, the dentist and if necessary the epithetic specialist before and after operation would be desireable but often not practicable in daily routine.
