The mouth, the face, and the mind 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 idiopathic disorders far outnumber those who present with conditions that are well understood.
Chronic orofacial symptoms, including pain, ulcerations, disturbances in jaw movement, and problems with sensation or salivation, are often the result of emotional problems. The mouth, the face, and the mind reviews the ways that patients with emotional problems present to dental practitioners and maxillofacial surgeons. It provides practical advice to help these clinicians recognize 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.
Charlotte Feinmann and her team of contributors represent a variety of disciplines, including dental practitioners, psychiatrists, restorative specialists, orthodontists, maxillofacial surgeons, and psychologists - all of whom make a contribution to the management of these patients. |
