Dental professionals are exposed to a wide variety of
microorganisms in blood and saliva of the patients. These
microorganisms can cause infectious diseases. "Prevention is better
than cure" - This saying holds true all the more in the field of
infection control. The goal of infection control is to provide
optimal protection for clinicians and patients from cross
contamination in the dental environment.
The science of epidemiology originally referred to the study of
epidemics. And epidemic is a frequency of case occurrence beyond
that which is usual for the particular season, place, and
population group (santwell, 1973). This book is a compilation of
all information and studies conducted on epidemiology of gingival
and periodontal diseases along with the basics of epidemiology,
Which will really help to the students of Periodontology as well as
students of Public Health Dentistry in easy understanding of this
subject."
It is an all inclusive text book written in chapter wise notes
format, written primarily with a vision to help Under graduate as
well as post graduate students of dentistry in easy understanding
the subject. Salient Features: * Topics covered in a notes format
which will help students in easy understanding and revising the
subject thoroughly before their University exams. * Some extra
chapters are included like, . Evolution and development of
Periodontium, Periodontal Indices, Lasers in Periodontics,
Nutrition in periodontal disease, Implants - Periodontal
consideration, which makes this book unique from other text books
available for the same subject.
The research in the field of esthetic and restorative dentistry led
to the achievement of the long sought dream of virtually bonding
any type of material to the tooth surface. The advances in the
restorative materials and bonding techniques have changed the
concept of "Extension for prevention" as "Restriction with
conviction." The purpose of writing this book is to summarize all
information available on this topic under a single text book, to
making it convenient for under graduate as well as post graduate
students of dentistry.
Despite decades of debate and multiple publications that discuss
the theory of occlusion, occlusal design, and equilibration
techniques, there have been few well-designed human studies that
can help answer the question "does occlusal trauma modify the
progression of attachment loss due to inflammatory periodontal
disease." The articles reviewed clearly demonstrate that occlusal
forces are transmitted to the periodontal attachment apparatus and
those forces can cause changes in the bone and connective tissue.
Occlusion and its relationship to periodontal disease has been and
remains an area of considerable controversy. Over the years, there
have been a number of human and animal studies investigating this
relationship. The purpose of writing this book is to summarize
previous research, describe the signs and symptoms of trauma from
occlusion, and discuss treatment considerations.
