The protocols and methods are sourced in both the published scientific evidence and the extensive experience and expertise of the authors. It also includes tips and tricks of how to manage the full range of possible scenarios and complications that can occur during and after a SMILE surgery. Each process described in the book is accompanied by at least one, and in many cases numerous, narrated video examples.Bonus!This dynamic learning tool is supplemented by the SMILE video library containing over 16 hours of surgical videos and tutorials hosted on a companion website.The succinct and demonstrative style of The Surgeon’s Guide to SMILE: Small Incision Lenticule Extraction will help novice and experienced SMILE surgeons alike learn important techniques and improve their outcomes.From the Foreword:“The reader is in for a treat, receiving authoritative technical information from seasoned leaders in the field of refractive surgery, who have attained tremendous experience in excimer laser ablation and who have also been on the forefront of scientific evaluation of the new femtosecond only surgical approach that is SMILE.”-J.

Surgery-First Orthodontic Management: A Clinical Guide to a New Treatment Approach
by Chai Kiat Chng Narayan H. Gandedkar Eric J. LiouThis book is a comprehensive guide to the surgery-first orthognathic approach (SFOA), which overcomes the problem of the very prolonged treatment period associated with conventional orthognathic surgery by avoiding the presurgical phase. The shorter duration of the treatment is due to a phenomenon triggered by the surgery, termed the regional acceleratory phenomenon, whereby higher osteoclastic activity and metabolic changes at the dentoalveolar level accelerate postoperative orthodontic tooth movement. In this book, readers will find in-depth discussion of integration of the basic biological principles of SFOA with sound biomechanical doctrines. The authors’ own treatment protocol for surgical and orthodontic management is fully explained. Diagnosis and treatment plans are presented for various skeletal maxillofacial deformities, and key considerations in pre- and postsurgical patient care are highlighted. Detailed attention is given to complication management and to the impact of recent advances such as 3D image integration, virtual surgical planning, and rapid prototyping of surgical wafers. This richly illustrated book will be an ideal resource and quick reference guide for orthodontists at all levels of experience.
