1. Maxillofacial orthopedics is a branch of orthopedic dentistry that deals with the clinic, diagnosis and treatment of injuries and defects of the maxillofacial region that have arisen as a result of a gunshot or non-gunshot injury, or transferred diseases, defects of the soft palate, TV palate and lip.

3. Maxillofacial prosthetics is a sub-specialty (or super-specialty) of orthopedic dentistry.

4. Orthopedic dentistry is a section of general dentistry and an independent part of general orthopedics. The science of recognition, prevention and treatment of patients with anomalies, acquired defects, injuries and deformations of the organs of the masticatory-speech apparatus.

5. A prosthesis is an apparatus or device that serves to replenish or replace a missing part of the body or organ.

6. Prosthetics — replacement of lost or irreversibly damaged body parts with artificial substitutes — prostheses.

7. Combiled injury – damage caused by the impact of various traumatic factors.

8. Bite — the relationship of the dentition with maximum contact and complete closure of the teeth of the upper and lower jaws. The type of bite is determined by the nature of the closure of the dentition in the position of the central occlusion.

9. Anatomical retention — features of the structure of the prosthetic bed, contributing to the retention of the prosthesis

10. Anaplastology is a branch of plastic and reconstructive surgery that covers the replacement of missing parts of the face or body with removable or non–removable siloxane structures.

11. A defect is a flaw, a flaw, a flaw.

12. Cleft palate is a gap, a cleft in the middle part of the sky, resulting from the non–penetration of the two halves of the sky during embryonic development.

13. Clft lip is a congenital anomaly of the lip structure (usually

14. An obturator is a prosthesis used for defects of the hard or soft palate.

15. Immobilization (from Lat. immobilis — immobile): in medicine, as a section — desmurgy, studies the rules of wound treatment, bandages and methods of their application. And also in microbiology, the reaction of IBT (immobilization of pale tryponemas)

16. Combined treatment is a combination of surgical treatment with one of the main special methods.

17. Combined injury – damage caused by the impact of various traumatic factors.

24. Aesthetic dentistry is a field of dental science that studies the aesthetics of the maxillofacial region, its norms; anomalies and deformities, methods of their elimination and prevention.

25. Combined injury – damage to 2 or more anatomical areas by one or more damaging agent.
