Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Etiology-Based Dental and Craniofacial Diagnostics explores the role of embryology and fetal pathology in the assessment, diagnosis, and subsequent treatment planning of a wide range of disorders in the dentition and craniofacial region. Initial chapters cover various aspects of normal dental and craniofacial development, providing the necessary biological background for understanding abnormal patient cases. Chapters then focus on the etiology behind a wide range of cases observed in everyday practice—including deviations in tooth morphology and number, tooth eruption, root and crown resorption, and craniofacial malformations, disruptions and dysplasia. Unique new work from a leading authority in orthodontics, craniofacial embryology and fetal pathology Demonstrates how human prenatal development offers unique insights into postnatal diagnosis and treatment Clinical significance and implications are highlighted in summaries at the end of each chapter Ideal for postgraduate students in orthodontics, paediatric dentistry and oral medicine

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended as a reference that will provide the practitioner with a framework for establishing a diagnosis and developing a suitable treatment plan in patients presenting with a range of developmental defects of the teeth. The conditions covered include failure of tooth eruption, hypodontia, premature tooth exfoliation, defects of enamel development, and defects of dentin development, with full consideration of both syndromic and non-syndromic defects. In each case the phenotype and genotype are first described, followed by diagnostic information, including the availability of genetic testing, and treatment options. Summarizing tables are used to highlight the key diagnostic features, and helpful illustrated case presentations are included. Cleft palate is also addressed, with details on etiology, phenotypes, treatment timing and approaches, and dental management. The closing chapter provides stimulating reflections on potential future directions in the diagnosis and treatment of these disorders, encompassing changes in management related to environmental-genetic interactions, tissue engineering, and materials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essential Orthodontics is a comprehensive introduction to the biological principles of orthodontics. This book covers the why, when and how of orthodontics, enabling readers to identify which individuals need to be treated, to diagnose based on individual dentofacial development, and to understand the mechanical principles and tissue responses involved. Divided into three parts, this authoritative resource covers pretreatment considerations, treatment principles of skeletal and dentoalveolar anomalies, and tissue response to orthodontic and orthopaedic forces. Classification of malocclusions and craniofacial growth and development are discussed, and the text explores how to distinguish between normal occlusion and malocclusions. Essential Orthodontics outlines how to perform a comprehensive orthodontic examination leading to an orthodontic diagnosis, and the formation of a treatment plan. Following a student-friendly layout with key objectives and chapter summaries, Essential Orthodontics is an accessible yet comprehensive resource for both undergraduate and postgraduate dental students.

Book excerpt: Identifying and treating traumatic dental injuries is an extremely important part of the dentistry profession. The stomatognathic system is a complex structure that is rich with tactile and motor neuron sensors and therefore trauma to the area should be diagnosed and treated as quickly and effectively as possible. Trauma in Dentistry not only covers the scientific basis of dental trauma and dental trauma-related matters, but it also draws attention to advanced diagnostic and treatment methods for dealing with traumatic dental injuries. This volume includes information for treating both adults and children, with two chapters dedicated to pediatric dental trauma. Other chapters focus on occlusal trauma, dental implants, and biomaterials.

Book excerpt: The is the only book that describes the decline of the golden age of orthodontics -- how a group of affluent professionals came face-to-face with threats to their status quo, how the group belatedly dealt with them, and how these forces left an indelible mark. Although the decline had been overcome by the late 20th century, today's practitioner must now cope with new challenges. Author_Bio: A native of Chicago and a West Point graduate, Norman Wahl was commissioned in the U.S. Army Quartermaster Corps in 1946. After 3 years of service, he worked in the film studios, later producing two documentary films on the history of Los Angeles. He finally decided on a career in dentistry, specializing in orthodontics. In addition to a BS degree from the US Military Academy, Dr Wahl has a DDS from the University of Illinois College of Dentistry, an MS in orthodontics from Northwestern University, and an MA in history from California State University at Northridge. He has written for the military and lay presses as well as for dental publications, mostly on orthodontic history. He is the author of Oral Signs and Symptoms, Wahl's Oral Histories, Who Was Who in Orthodontics with a Selected Bibliography of Orthodontic History, and articles in the American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics (including the 16-chapter series, "Orthodontics in 3 Millennia"), the Angle Orthodontist, the Journal of Clinical Orthodontics, Dental Economics, and the Pacific Coast Society of Orthodontists Bulletin. He has also taught orthodontic history at the UCLA College of Dentistry. Dr Wahl lives with his wife, Betty, in Sequim, Washington, and divides his time between writing, freelance copyediting, and playing the piano for local retirement homes. Golden Age is an outgrowth of his master's thesis (CSUN, 1997). Having started his practice in 1963, he considers himself an eyewitness to the decline.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Institute of Medicine (IOM) Roundtable on Health Literacy focuses on bringing together leaders from the federal government, foundations, health plans, associations, and private companies to address challenges facing health literacy practice and research and to identify approaches to promote health literacy in both the public and private sectors. The roundtable serves to educate the public, press, and policy makers regarding the issues of health literacy, sponsoring workshops to discuss approaches to resolve health literacy challenges. It also builds partnerships to move the field of health literacy forward by translating research findings into practical strategies for implementation. The Roundtable held a workshop March 29, 2012, to explore the field of oral health literacy. The workshop was organized by an independent planning committee in accordance with the procedures of the National Academy of Sciences. The planning group was composed of Sharon Barrett, Benard P. Dreyer, Alice M. Horowitz, Clarence Pearson, and Rima Rudd. The role of the workshop planning committee was limited to planning the workshop. Unlike a consensus committee report, a workshop summary may not contain conclusions and recommendations, except as expressed by and attributed to individual presenters and participants. Therefore, the summary has been prepared by the workshop rapporteur as a factual summary of what occurred at the workshop.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salivary Diagnostics surveys one of the most exciting areas of research in oral biology. Regarded as the mirror of the body, saliva has immense potential to yield real clinical improvements in our ability to diagnose, and hence treat, oral and systemic conditions. The composition of saliva and other oral fluids reflects the tissue fluid levels of therapeutic, hormonal, and immunological molecules, as well as the presence of markers for systemic and oral disease.
