Book excerpt: Authored by the foremost experts in the field, this compact reference serves the student and clinician by relating basic science to successful treatment planning. It demonstrates how the best instrument in dental medicine is often the practitioner's knowledge of the body's biologic growth principles. Donald H. Enlow, MS, PhD, the acknowledged pioneer and research leader in facial growth study for the past twenty years, provides comprehensive insights into normal and abnormal craniofacial growth and development. His colleague, Mark G. Hans, DDS, MSD, contributes a concrete understanding of the importance of these concepts in clinical practice. It delves into the interrelationships between soft tissue and skeletal growth, and examines the impact of function upon development. And it stresses the ways in which these biological principles and concepts affect treatment planning, selection, results, relapse, tooth movement, and nonbiological prosthetic implants during growth. Detailed illustrations make key concepts and developmental processes simple to grasp, and a user-friendly organization allows for quick comprehension and convenient referral.

Book excerpt: There's a silent epidemic in western civilization, and it is right under our noses. Our jaws are getting smaller and our teeth crooked and crowded, creating not only aesthetic challenges but also difficulties with breathing. Modern orthodontics has persuaded us that braces and oral devices can correct these problems. While teeth can certainly be straightened, what about the underlying causes of this rapid shift in oral evolution and the health risks posed by obstructed airways? Sandra Kahn and Paul R. Ehrlich, a pioneering orthodontist and a world-renowned evolutionist, respectively, present the biological, dietary, and cultural changes that have driven us toward this major health challenge. They propose simple adjustments that can alleviate this developing crisis, as well as a major alternative to orthodontics that promises more significant long-term relief. Jaws will change your life. Every parent should read this book.

This text consists of 19 chapters organized into six sections. After giving an overview of research on cranio-facial growth done at the National Institute of Dental Research (NIDR), this book turns its attention to the biology of bone. Topics covered in this section include the mechanisms of cartilage growth and replacement in endochondral ossification; the histological characteristics of bone that reflect mineral homeostasis; and modes of growth of the neurocranium. The reader is also introduced to the genetics of cranio-facial growth and techniques in processing and handling growth data. A chapter that evaluates methods and perspectives in cranio-facial research concludes the book. This book will serve as a useful guide to prospective and active investigators in the field of human biology, to graduate students in their selection of a meaningful research topic, and to the NIDR in terms of future program planning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last two decades have seen a proliferation in the use of sophisticated orthodontic appliances, capable of considerable precision in manipulating the correction of misplaced teeth, and in the use of orthognathic surgery for the treatment of facial deformity. Both of these advances have greatly increased the demand for precise information about the future facial growth and its probable variations. A more scientific approach to orthodontic treatment requires that the claims for the efficacy of various treatment techniques should be substantiated, a process which needs a baseline of data on normal growth changes with which to compare improvement attributed to the treatment. An opportunity to satisfy this need was provided by the development of an online computer system with computergraphic facilities alongside longitudinal growth material at King's College School of Medicine and Dentistry. From this material cephalometric records extending from before the age of 5 years to adulthood was made immediately available to researchers. The data covers a greater range of ages than is presently available and are based upon as large a sample of the British population as possible. This includes occlusion developed normally without orthodontic treatment. This book is essentially a manual of growth changes and is largely descriptive. Some introductory explanations are included to define the nature and source of the sample, and the methods used in taking the radiographs and in assembling and processing the data.
