Orthodontics - Basic Aspects and Clinical Considerations




The book reflects the ideas of nineteen academic and research experts from different countries. The different sections of this book deal with epidemiological and preventive concepts, a demystification of cranio-mandibular dysfunction, clinical considerations and risk assessment of orthodontic treatment. It provides an overview of the state-of-the-art, outlines the experts' knowledge and their efforts to provide readers with quality content explaining new directions and emerging trends in Orthodontics. The book should be of great value to both orthodontic practitioners and to students in orthodontics, who will find learning resources in connection with their fields of study. This will help them acquire valid knowledge and excellent clinical skills.

Les tumeurs maxillo-faciales : Imagerie - Anatomopathologie




Descriptions du produit
Présentation de l'éditeur
Nous avons souhaité illustrer autant que possible la diversité des processus tumoraux touchant les structures osseuses du massif facial. A partir de dossiers tous issus de la Pitié-Salpêtrière, nous avons voulu présenter de façon parallèle et systématique les deux reflets, radiologiques et histologiques, de chaque tumeur : clichés standard, TDM et IRM d'une part, cytoarchitecture, analyse cellulaire, immunohistochimie... d'autre part, chaque image appartenant au dossier d'origine. Cette étude multidisciplinaire jointe à une recherche bibliographique approfondie nous a souvent entraînées beaucoup plus loin que prévu, sans vouloir cependant (ni pouvoir...) être exhaustives tant est aujourd'hui complexe et diversifiée cette pathologie, complexité et évolutivité qui font encore aujourd'hui tout son intérêt. Nous espérons ainsi présenter ici un panorama suffisamment vaste et diversifié de ces lésions tout en restant concises et schématiques pour que l'étudiant, le radiologue, l'anatomopathologiste ou le clinicien aussi bien novice qu'expérimenté puisse trouver la corrélation et la synthèse qu'il peut rechercher.

Description: La reconstitution d'une dent dévitalisée reste un acte courant de la dentisterie quotidienne. La meilleure technique de reconstitution corono-radiculaire fait-elle appel à un matériau coulé ou inséré à l'état plastique et foulé? Faut-il choisir en fonction du délabrement de la dent ou de sa position sur l'arcade? Avec quels types de matériaux? De tenons? Celui-ci est-il vraiment indispensable? Après avoir envisagé certains aspects de la dent dépulpée, les auteurs présenteront les deux types de reconstruction possibles: par pièce métallique coulée ou par matériau plastique.

Naturellement, ceux qui avaient déjà publié plusieurs articles découvrirent les erreurs d’écriture qu’ils faisaient régulièrement sans le savoir, faute d’avoir des principes d’écriture prenant en compte le lecteur. Naturellement, les jeunes chercheurs et ingénieurs dont le premier report était encore un rêve, trouvèrent dans le cours suffisamment pour ne marche avoir plus tard à tâtonner ou à tenter d’imiter la framework et le design d’autres content articles sans vraiment savoir si ce qu’ils imiteront est bon ou mauvais. Mais l’inattendu vint des chercheurs chevronnés, chefs de labo, directeurs de département, qui trouvèrent dans le séminaire une méthode pratique leur permettant non seulement d’évaluer as well as facilement les posts de leurs chercheurs auparavant publication, mais aussi de ten Guide PRATIQUE DE RÉDACTION SCIENTIFIQUE « démonter » l’écriture problématique pour en identifier les triggers, et préconiser des remèdes efficaces. Tous comprirent qu’écrire est une expérience scientifique conduite sur un lecteur.

Dental Implant Complications Etiology, Prevention and Treatment



Publication Date: July 6, 2010 | ISBN-10: 0813808413 | ISBN-13: 978-0813808413 | Edition: 1
Dental implants have become one of the most popular and rapidly growing techniques for replacing missing teeth. While their predictability, functionality, and durability make them an attractive option for patients and clinicians alike, complications can arise at any stage from patient assessment to maintenance therapy. Dental Implant Complications: Etiology, Prevention, and Treatment is the first comprehensive reference of its kind designed to provide clinicians of all skill levels with practical instruction grounded in evidence-based research. Featuring cases from a variety of dental specialties, the book covers the most commonly occurring implant complications as well as the unique.Dental Implant Complications is organized sequentially, guiding the reader through complications associated with the diagnosis, treatment planning, placement, restoration, and maintenance of implants at any stage. Complications associated with various bone augmentation and sinus lift procedures are also discussed in detail with emphasis on their etiology and prevention. Each chapter utilizes a highly illustrated and user-friendly format to showcase key pedagogical features, including a list of “take home tips” summarizing the fundamental points of each chapter.  Continuing education for this book is provided at www.IneedCE.com/froumbook.
Dental Implant Complications brings together contributions from leading experts in the field under the superior editorship of Dr. Stuart Froum. With its pragmatic approach to preventing and managing implant complications, this expertly crafted text serves as an indispensible clinical reference and guide for all dentists placing or restoring implants.



Orthodontic Pearls: A Selection of Practical Tips and Clinical Expertise



Orthodontic Pearls is an attempt to fill gaps in a specialist orthodontist's education. It is about know-how rather than knowledge; the first half of the book covers practice administration, patient management and marketing, and the remainder is a selection of clinical tips gleaned from various contributors.
The opening chapter suggests guidelines in practice and operatory design and makes several sensible points, as well as emphasising the importance of good staff attitude. The following three chapters deal quite comprehensively with the approach to managing and recording a new patient, including impression taking and clinical photography.
Chapter 5 stresses the absolute importance of case discussion, which is often overlooked, but vital in today's climate of informed consent. This is a most welcome section of the book, and covers record keeping and communication.
The next chapter goes on to set out the personal views of Winston Senior on marketing a private practice, and repeats some points previously mentioned. It ends with a section on patient compliance — so essential in orthodontics — and discusses the inter-relationships between child, parent, and operator. As suggested in Chapter 5, time spent in explanation and building rapport is invaluable.
The remainder of the book presents a series of clinical tips on fixed appliances, beginning with detailed advice on setting up a fixed appliance, from bonding, through bracketing to arch wire placement. There are some valuable 'pearls' here, especially the use of autoclave type in band cementation, and prevention of wire end trauma.
The perennial problem of distal movement of upper molars is considered, and three chapters focus on finishing and retention — which complete the clinical section. There is an extensive appendix of specimen pro forma letters and forms covering almost every eventuality encountered in practice.
This book is well produced, with clear print and diagrams. The text is liberally sprinkled with headings and highlighted pearls of wisdom. It is good to see a page devoted to oral hygiene, although the authors are over-confident about the average patient's ability to clean well. The use of jigs and headgear are explained in detail, and safety in headgear use emphasised. Chapter 10, on auxiliary springs used in the Begg appliance, should be deleted altogether.
Overall, there are some useful tips throughout the book, but the layout would benefit from less repetition, and keeping topics together under major headings.
