Abstract: Aesthetic reconstruction of maxillofacial tissue defects with the similar kind of tissue is very challenging as the skin of the other parts of the body does not match properly. Tissue expansion using expander is being used more frequently in reconstructive surgery for the treatment of a variety of oral and maxillofacial problems. The concept of tissue expansion has opened a whole new frontier in reconstructive surgery. The tissue expansion technique is advantageous in facial reconstruction because it makes it possible to resurface wider defects with neighbouring skin that is similar in colour and texture. Conventional tissue expansion may result in epidermal hypertrophy, decreased dermal muscle and adipose thickness, bone resorption. To overcome such problems, the review discusses on tissue expanders of medical grade silicone with a mixture of biocompatible materials which is highly flexible and cost effective are being mentioned in the article.
Keywords: Soft tissue expansion, tissue expander, reconstruction, tissue expansion.
