RESUMO
Dental implants are well-established in dentistry and allow the restorative dentist to offer patients the best that dentistry has to offer. Through examination, radiographs, and study models, the restorative dentist and implant surgeon can develop a treatment plan. Comprehensive diagnosis and treatment planning involve much more than a clinical exam--they require an investigation involving past, present and future dental therapy.

The patient sustaining maxillofacial trauma, disease or deformity presents with unique nutritional problems, especially during the postoperative period. By providing a nutritionally adequate diet in the preoperative and immediate postoperative period and during convalescence, complications can be reduced and healing improved. This paper details the nutritional requirements for patients and the indications for, and complications from, total parenteral nutrition and enteral nutritional support.
