Dr. Randy Robinson is double board-certified by the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery and is an Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support Provider. He practices oral, maxillofacial, craniofacial, and cosmetic surgery in the Denver area.
Dr. Robinson obtained his bachelor's degree in biology at the University of Missouri-Columbia. Consistent with a trend for facial surgeons in the United States and Europe, he then obtained both a dental and a medical degree at the University of Missouri-Kansas City. Next, he completed eight years of surgical training, ultimately including two years of general surgery. In his final year of residency, he was honored by his housestaff surgical peers as Resident of the Year. Lastly, he completed a one-year fellowship in craniofacial & plastic surgery, led by Paul L. Tessier, MD, the world's “father" of craniofacial surgery who practiced at the Clinique Belvediere in Paris, France.
Robinson has several publications and awards related to his specialty. They include a book he authored, A Patient's Guide to Cosmetic Procedures, Skeletal Surgeries, Oral Surgeries, and Skin Care, 1999, "Mandibular Distraction Force: Laboratory Data and Clinical Correlation" in the Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, May 2001, and an article in Monduzzi Editore, December 1997, describing his research in facial distraction (bone lengthening), which he also presented at the International Congress on Cranial and Facial Bone Distraction Processes, Paris, June 1997. Other publications are chapters on nasal surgery for the aging face, September 1998, and on nasal septal surgery, September 1995, both in The Atlas of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics of North America.
Robinson teaches periodically at the University of Colorado Schools of Medicine and Dentistry as a visiting clinician and has presented at several national and international conferences on topics related to facial surgery, including bone lengthening presentations in Paris, June 2001. He continues to do clinical research and holds two patents and has achieved FDA approval on both bone expansion devices:
1.) The "Bone Generator"™, for internal craniofacial expansion and bone lengthening. This Generator changes the way children and adults with facial deformities are managed, in a less surgically-invasive approach to care. FDA approval: January 19, 2000.
2.) The Limb Lengthener™, a device used to lengthen the legs of those who experience limb length discrepancies. FDA approval: September 23, 2003.
Both devices offer much hope for those with specific needs related to facial bone structure and orthopedic discrepancies. Website for this company, Inter-Os Technologies, Inc.: www.orthonetx.com
