Designed to ease the minds of readers who are apprehensive about oral and maxillofacial surgery, A Guide to Oral and Maxeo…Maller…The Guy or Gal Who Takes Your Teeth Out by Donald R. Grippo, DDS, is a collection of short stories for young people about a variety of oral and maxillofacial conditions.
Grippo presents seven fictional stories about young people, all of whom have an oral and maxillofacial surgical problem. In addition to providing interesting anecdotes, the author also imparts accurate, nonfictional information about modern oral and maxillofacial surgery.
Readers will become knowledgeable on oral health care by reading stories on subjects such as mountain biking and softball, and it is the author’s hope that by being informed, readers will lose their fear of oral and maxillofacial surgery.
A graduate of Meharry Dental School in Nashville, Tenn, Grippo completed his oral and maxillofacial surgery residency at The New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center in New York and has been practicing oral and maxillofacial surgery for more than 30 years. He is a member of the American College of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, the American Dental Society, the Connecticut Dental Society, and The Northeast Connecticut Dental Society.
