Regenerative Endodontics: Biological Foundation, Protocols And Future Directions

~~125,88€~~ 113,29€ 10% OFF

 Tooth loss is strongly associated with the occurrence of several comorbidities and social well-being problems, mainly among children and young people. These individuals may have the process of tooth development impaired by microbial invasion caused by untreated dental caries, traumatic injuries, and/or dental anomalies. Although conventional endodontic treatment was considered the treatment of choice for necrotic teeth for many years, regenerative endodontic procedures (REPs) has become a paradigm shift in the treatment of young permanent teeth with pulp necrosis and an open apex. REP is a biologically based procedure, which has gained popularity among many researchers and clinicians and involves the three classic principles of tissue engineering (stem cells, signaling molecules, and a 3-dimensional scaffold), in addition to the need for efficient bacteria control within the root canal system. In addition to promoting pain resolution and the preservation of the remaining tooth structure, this approach aims to allow continued development and regeneration of the root and surrounding damaged tissues of necrotic young permanent teeth. Despite the absence of a standard irrigation protocol available in REPs, the ideal protocol should be based on microbiological and immunological principles, eliminating biofilm and enhancing growth factor release to favor stem cell proliferation and differentiation. Furthermore, clinicians should choose adequate scaffold materials to induce the formation of mineralized tissue in the weakened dentinal walls and ensure an optimum environment for tissue regeneration or repair. The search for appropriate strategies over the years to recreate the most ideal regenerative niche, evaluating different biomimetic cell-friendly protocols and materials to optimize the outcomes of REPs, is to be foreseen in the future. Thus, this book addresses the biological basis of tissue regeneration, clinical indications, current clinical protocols, the most suitable biomaterials used in REPs, the characteristics of clinical success, and the management of treatment failure, as well as the future perspectives of REPs in Endodontics.

Digital Implant Planning And Guided Implant Surgery

by Niveditha S. Prasad

~~108,65€~~ 97,79€ 10% OFF

 In guided implant surgery, dentists utilize advanced machinery and imaging technology to guide them to manufacture and place implants more efficiently, precisely, and accurately. This new and improved dental implant surgery allows the dentist to have a more complete picture of the patient’s mouth and accurately produce the most appropriate dental implants. These steps that used to require many dental office visits can now be performed on the same day, concluding with the surgery. The evaluation of 3D data extracted from computerized tomography, but also more recently from optical scanner, together with modern implant planning software, allows to carefully simulate surgical and prosthetic phases. Implant sites can be decided before surgery according to bone volume and quality, location of anatomical structures (nerves, vessels, sinuses), prosthetic and aesthetic evaluations, and accurate one-to-one measurements of the width and height of bone in planned implant sites. The distances and angulations between implants can also be calculated. Moreover, a careful three-dimensional positioning of the implants allows for obtaining the best clinical results, especially in regard to aesthetic aspects. Guided implant surgery (GIS) allows to transfer planned rehabilitation projects directly into the surgical field. Guided-implant surgery could also be needed for minimally traumatic or flapless surgery, optimal implant positioning and immediate loading, along with the reduction of post operative pain.

Advanced Oral And Maxillofacial Implantology

304,75€ + 10% CARD

 The book at hand is an international text on advanced oral and maxillofacial implantology. It is the fruition of over 40 specialists from 8 countries. The procedures presented herein are meant for expert implantologists; these procedures (including sinus floor grafting and ridge augmentation, etc.) are not for beginners or the novice; and require a great deal of skill, training and experience to perform. Although the majority of these operations require only local anesthesia and sometimes sedation in an outpatient setting, a significant number of these procedures are major operations and need to be performed by trained OMF surgeons and may require hospitalization and treatment under general anesthesia. Recruiting national and international world-renowned experts in implantology from 8 countries to write the chapters of this book was indeed a difficult undertaking. The authors generously present their cases and state-of-the-art techniques in an educational manner; actual cases were treated and their outcomes are presented thus allowing the surgeon to choose the technique which best addresses the dilemma at hand and yields the best result for that particular case. Problems commonly arise when there is insufficient bone to place implants. Operations are then needed to graft bone prior to accommodation of implants; these operations range from splitting the alveolar ridge (for horizontal ridge deficiency) to onlay grafting or sandwich techniques (to manage vertical ridge deficiency). Several solutions to solve these difficult issues are presented in this text. In the final chapter, extraoral implants are also addressed; they provide anchorage for facial prostheses and are indeed artistic as well as scientific. I would like to take the opportunity to thank all my national and international colleagues who helped me compile the chapters necessary for this text, especially the invaluable help and kind guidance of Prof. Peter Hunt, a genuine icon in the field of dental implantology by my standards, for his generosity in submitting four informative educational chapters to this text. Last but not least, I would like to thank my family for putting up with me all the long hours of the night while I was working and they were sleeping. I sincerely hope this book will be of use to all clinicians who practice this fascinating discipline for the benefit of those who need it.

Conservative Treatment Of Pulp Tissue: Indications, Materials And Techniques

212,00€ + 10% CARD

 Dental pulp is a loose, vascularized connective tissue located within the walls of dentin. This tissue plays an important role in tooth longevity, whose functions are formative, sensitive, nourishing and defensive. Pulp exposure can be caused by several factors, such as a carious lesion or tooth fracture, leading to inflammation of the pulp tissue, which can result in necrosis if intervention is not performed quickly. Conservative treatments may be indicated when removal of the carious lesion results in pulp exposure in a young primary or permanent tooth, with normal pulp or reversible pulpitis, or after accidental pulp exposure.This book addresses the physiology and pathology of pulp tissue in order to communicate the importance, indications, and techniques of conservative treatments to be performed, especially in young patients, as well as the most suitable biomaterials.

Platelet Concentrates In Periodontal Therapy: An Update

108,65€ + 10% CARD

 This book offers an extensive and comprehensive description of platelet concentrates in the field of periodontal regeneration as well as a more specific description of biological properties and biologic efficacy of these concentrates. The evolution of platelet concentrates and their application in periodontal therapy as well as their limitations are explained. The book also details treatment protocols and methods with demonstrated success. The development of bioactive surgical additives to regulate inflammation and increase the speed of the healing process is one of the great challenges in clinical research. Platelet concentrate has a higher number of platelets per millimeter and, therefore, contains a higher concentration of growth factors to enhance regeneration. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is the first generation of platelet concentrate. However, the short duration of cytokine release and its poor mechanical properties have resulted in a search for new material. Platelet rich fibrin (PRF) appears as a natural and satisfactory alternative with favorable results and low risks. This monograph may prove extremely useful for clinicians and those pursuing undergraduate and postgraduate education in the fields of dentistry and medicine. The information compiled in this monograph will continue to provide interesting and new information for teachers and faculty members in the field of dentistry. This review will surely give valuable information for achieving the highest standard in clinical dentistry.

Critical Thoughts On Oral Lichen Planus

by Dante Antonio Migliari

108,65€ + 10% CARD

 This well-illustrated publication deals with one of the most fascinating conditions in oral medicine: oral lichen planus (OLP). The importance of addressing this clinical subject is two-fold. First, OLP is among the most common oral changes observed in oral medicine clinics. Second, OLP has caused many controversies surrounding its diagnostic criteria, its association with systemic factors, and, above all, its potential for malignant transformation. This latter controversy is an issue of utmost concern for patients and clinicians alike with respect to the management of this disease. This e-book offers a well-informed and critical perspective on all these OLP-related issues. Rather than offering solutions, this publication aims to provide a valuable reflection on these controversies, trying to call the attention of editors, reviewers, and researchers so they are more cautious in accepting some "truths" on OLP that have yet to be fully proven. The text is based on the extensive experience of the authors on the subject, and its content may stir controversy within the scientific community itself. One of the highlights of this publication is its illustrations. Each clinical picture is presented with a robust diagnostic evaluation analyzing the signs of the lesions along with the differential diagnosis and management used in the clinic. Some aspects of the direct immunofluorescent examinations used in OLP are also presented, focusing on their diagnostic value and relevance for the management of the disease. This book may inspire readers to develop an acute critical sense when reading about controversial issues that require more robust judgments based on the available scientific data.

Contemporary Use Of Plant Extracts In Dentistry: Scientific Evidence For Phytotherapy And Ethnopharmacology

258,38€ + 10% CARD

 Since ancient times, mankind has used plants as a valuable source of natural products for maintaining human health and to treat or prevent diseases. The common knowledge around plants’ healing properties, known as folk medicine, has been transmitted over the centuries for generations throughout human communities. The use of natural products and herbal medicines have been documented in the past. The antibacterial activity of plant extracts has been reported since the late 1800s and some of these traditional medicines are still used, especially in the last decade, with more intensive studies for natural therapies. Active compounds produced during vegetal metabolism are responsible for the antimicrobial and biological properties interacting with specific chemical receptors in the human body and, due to these components, plants extracts are popular as anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial or anti-fungal drugs. However, in the absence of scientific studies, the use of aleatory plant extracts may lead to harmful adverse effects. Previously considered empirical, current data on the antimicrobial activity and biocompatibility of numerous plants have been scientifically confirmed. Phytosciences, as ethnopharmacology or phytotherapy, are emerging multidisciplinary areas with almost unlimited sources and several aspects to be discussed. Recently, there has been a growing trend to seek natural drugs as part of dental treatment. In dentistry, the association of plant extracts with restorative dentistry, endodontics or periodontics materials have been used to reduce inflammation, as antimicrobial enhancer agent, antiseptics, antifungals, antioxidants, analgesics or even as mouth rinse to prevent or reduce dental plaque. Thus, this book will address the use of plant extracts in different fields of dentistry, highlighting its use in cariology, restorative dentistry, endodontics and periodontics, besides other uses of herbal plants in dentistry, as in dental trauma, osteointegration or hemostatic, among others. As will be shown and stated, the vast variety of different plants described in literature with medicinal properties makes it impracticable to discuss all extracts found in scientific literature. Therefore, this book will contribute with some of these extracts and different methodologies to assess, as an introduction to new research and new researchers. Also, different in vivo and in vitro tests used to evaluate biological response, such as biocompatibility and antimicrobial activity in dental treatment will be discussed.

Mcqs, Saqs, Emqs And Osces For Oral Pathology And Oral Medicine: An Exam-Focused Approach

304,75€ + 10% CARD

 "MCQs, SAQs, EMQs and OSCEs for Oral Pathology and Oral Medicine-An exam-focused Approach" is designed to serve as a companion to the available textbooks in oral pathology and oral medicine and is meant to serve as a revision tool for dental students and graduates preparing for examinations. The book is structured to complement student lecture notes, recommended textbooks and past exam papers. Globally, the current trend is to use a combination of multiple-choice questions (MCQs), short answer questions (SAQs), extended matching questions (EMQs) and objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) stations in the examination process. Available textbooks in oral pathology and oral medicine are not of much value to students preparing for exams using these assessment formats. The aim of this book therefore is to offer students with a single source that would assist them to prepare for exams. Target audience for this book includes dental students, oral health therapy and dental hygiene students, overseas-trained dental graduates preparing for board or licensing examinations and those preparing for membership or fellowship examinations of the Royal Surgical Colleges.

Scenario Based Mcq In Dentistry

258,38€ + 10% CARD

 Dentistry has constantly evolved over the years to keep abreast of the latest trends, techniques, and diagnostic procedures. Dental Schools have undergone a number of changes in an effort to arrive upon the ideal format for testing clinical knowledge in examinations. Multiple-choice questions (MCQs) have been the most common modality by which dental students were examined. Although MCQs enable the testing of a broad range of topics, as well as being cost effective, they have largely been abandoned in favour of scenario-based questions (SBQs). Traditional MCQs often abstract and measure only whether people recall facts in their short-term memory. Converting these questions to scenario-based questions can increase the level of difficulty, measure higher level thought and providing relevant context. The authors of Scenario Based MCQ in Dentistry have endeavoured to keep these facts in mind and provide a significant number of high-quality SBQs that comprehensively examine the dental curriculum. Most of the questions are scenario based. Each question not only provides an opportunity to apply clinical knowledge and correctly identify the single best answer to a question, but also to learn why the other answers are wrong, greatly increasing the clinical acumen and learning opportunity of the reader. Selection tests and competitive exams are hurdles that a candidate seeks to clear with ease. It all depends on meticulous preparation and the quality of resource materials available to the student. Considering the quantity of subject matter that needs to be covered, it becomes a herculean task unless the candidate chooses the right training tool. Reference texts are often too advanced and undergraduate texts are insufficiently updated or lacking in depth and detail. In this context, a lack of good revision aids can be frustrating. This book has been compiled with the selection tests in mind as a tool for rapid revision and analytical learning. It is useful for doctors, dental students, graduates, dental nurses, technicians, as well as specialists seeking professional excellence, or for those studying for the various licensing exams conducted by SCFHS, Saudi Board, HAAD, OMSB, SCHQ, DHCC, DHA, and MOH. This book aims to provide dental students with a useful source for exam preparation, as well as for supplementing the readers’ knowledge so that they feel fully prepared for the various postgraduate entrance examinations.

Bioactive Materials In Dentistry: Remineralization And Biomineralization

212,00€ + 10% CARD

 Bioactive materials, or biomaterials, have the ability to interact biologically with the tissue to which it is inserted, and to stimulate the deposition of mineralized tissue. The calcium phosphate-based ceramics were the first known materials in dentistry to have bioactivity, and currently, these materials are the most used for biomedical purposes, with different morphological characteristics. In dentistry, these materials have achieved immense importance by stimulating the deposition of osseous tissue in injured bone, and by having the ability to remineralize hard tooth tissues (enamel and dentin). Furthermore, repair materials based on aggregated trioxides mineral or on calcium hydroxide are classic biomaterials and widely used in dentistry, mainly in contact with the pulp tissue or periodontal ligament, for repair processes. However, various formulations of these materials appear all the time, in search of the ideal material. In general, bioactive materials have been shown to promote the release of calcium, sodium, silicon and phosphate ions, which are metabolized by the body, having effects such as angiogenesis and antimicrobial action, which can be improved depending on the composition of the material. Pulp tissue is a highly specialized dental tissue and is the subject of intense studies about the response to biomaterials. It is also understood that some systemic alterations in individuals have an influence on the action of bioactive materials during tissue repair processes. Thus, this book will address the use of different bioactive materials in dentistry, considering the performance of these biomaterials in the hard tissues of the tooth, and the response of the dental pulp, as well as the influence of the composition of these materials and of the individual''s systemic alterations in bioactivity and in antimicrobial activity. The several in vivo and in vitro tests to evaluate the bioactivity of a biomaterial will also be addressed.
