Distraction Osteogenesis

Distraction Osteogenesis (DO) is a relatively new method of treatment for selected deformities and defects of the oral and facial skeleton. Distraction Osteogenesis was initially used to treat defects of the oral and facial region in 1990.

Since then, the surgical and technological advances made in the field of Distraction Osteogenesis have provided the oral and maxillofacial surgeons with a safe and predictable method to treat selected deformities of the oral and facial skeleton.

Dr. Strauss uses Distraction Osteogenesis to treat selected deformities and defects of the oral and facial skeleton. He is a skilled surgeon, having completed his Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Residency at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. Dr. Strauss served as chief resident at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey and East Orange VA Hospital. He also completed an internship in General Surgery at University Hospital in Newark, NJ.
