Craniofacial Reconstructive Surgery | Restoring Vincent’s Smile
By the time Vincent came to Johns Hopkins for head and neck cancer treatment, he required extensive reconstruction of his jaw and face. A multidisciplinary team that included oral and maxillofacial surgeon Robin Yang, maxillofacial prosthodontist Ghassan Sinada, and plastic and reconstructive surgeon Sami Tuffaha devised an innovative three-part surgery to use his fibula to construct a new upper jaw, in which they mounted dental implants. After being without a smile that he felt comfortable with, Vincent is now able to grin confidently from ear to ear.
Dental Care for Medically Compromised Patients
If you have a health condition requiring hospital care, you may need to see a dentist during your hospital stay. Our general dentists and dental specialists are experienced at managing patients with serious health issues and work with your team of specialists to provide the highest level of dental care. We offer routine care to patients at The Johns Hopkins Hospital, as well as refer patients to our specialized dental practitioners for more complex care.
Our specialized dental practitioners often provide oral health care to patients with:
- Heart conditions
- Organ transplants
- Immuno-compromised health issues
- Cancer (patients undergoing chemotherapy or radiation treatments)
- Surgical defects due to cancer removal
We work with your physician(s) to ensure our work aids your treatment and recovery. We may recommend you have cleanings and checkups more often to maintain the health of your mouth and teeth.
