This book provides detailed information about peptides and dendrimers and their application in dentistry. Modern peptide and dendrimer chemistry techniques are being used by dental researchers to identify, prevent, and possibly treat oral disorders. Even though the research on peptide chemistry and oral/dental health is still in its early stages, it has already yielded some promising findings that, if developed further, might have a positive impact on all of our health and help both sectors' research paradigms. The book was written for those interested in research on novel materials in the field of dentistry, and will open numerous doors for new research in the field of preventive dentistry.
This book covers two increasingly prominent aspects of dentistry: nanotechnology and ozone. Nanotechnology has rapidly expanded into all areas of science; it offers significant alternative ways of solving scientific and medical questions and problems. In dentistry, nanotechnology has been exploited in the development of restorative materials with significant success. The recent advances in nanotechnology could hold promise in bringing about a paradigm shift in the dental field. Although there are numerous complex therapies being developed to treat many diseases, their clinical use requires careful consideration of the expense of synthesis and implementation. The world is moving towards non-invasive methods of treatment and the principle of ‘extension for prevention’ is losing its popularity. The energized form of oxygen is ozone, which has varied properties like anti-microbial activity, biocompatibility, disinfection and healing properties. As such, this book shows that it has a major scope of application in the fields of medicine and dentistry.
Pharmacological Studies in Natural Oral Care Edited by a natural product scientist, clinician, pharmacologist and a dental surgeon, the book helps oral care specialists to implement safe and effective natural medicine therapies to complement current practice guidelines. With oral care specialists focusing their attention on the interdisciplinary connections between oral health, heart health, gastrointestinal health, etc., and with increasing antibiotic resistance and stronger antibiotics now reserved for serious active infection, the importance of herbal antibiotics is increasing exponentially. This book helps to implement safe and effective natural medicine therapies to complement the curre...

Over the last few years, we have witnessed increasing efforts dedicated to the scientific investigation and characteristics of trace elements. Especially in the field of human and animal nutrition, trace elements display a considerably attractive issue for research because they play an essential role in the nutrition of both animals and humans. Aquatic environments contaminated with trace elements are an emerging research area due to the toxicity, abundance, and environmental persistence of trace elements. Accumulation of heavy metals as a class of trace elements in various environments, and the subsequent transition of these elements into the food and feed chain, severely affects human heal...
Biomaterials in Endodontics offers an up-to-date overview of endodontic biomaterials and their applications in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. This book details the key biomaterials used in clinical endodontics and the benefits and challenges of using these materials, from root canal obturation materials to alloys for endodontic files and hand instruments. Chapters also offer a unique insight into the regenerative applications of endodontic biomaterials, such as the use of stem cells and growth factors for bone regeneration. Biomaterials in Endodontics is a useful resource for researchers working in biomedical engineering, regenerative medicine, and materials science with an interest in dentistry and bone regeneration. This book is also a helpful guide for endodontists, dentists, dental scientists, and clinicians with an interest in biomaterials for endodontics. - Details the latest innovations in materials used for endodontic procedures - Offers a unique insight into regenerative applications of endodontic biomaterials - Appeals to an interdisciplinary readership, combining materials science, regenerative medicine, and biomedical engineering approaches
This book is an up-to-date, succinct, and easily accessible reference on the diverse anomalies that may arise in the developing dentition, including those relating to crown size and shape, tooth formation, tooth eruption, tooth number, and enamel and dentin formation. For each anomaly, information is provided on clinical and radiographic features, etiology, and management. Attention is also drawn to clinically relevant associations among anomalies. The inclusion of numerous high-quality photographs and images will assist the practitioner in establishing the correct diagnosis in each patient and in understanding the rationale for specific interventions. The book will also facilitate discussion of the anomaly with the caregiver or patient, including with respect to genetic and other implications and the appropriate treatment path. Anomalies of the Developing Dentition is an excellent clinical guide to the subject that will aid in timely identification and appropriate management. It will meet the needs of students and practitioners in multiple disciplines of both medicine and dentistry.

Evidence based medicine is at the core of modern medicine. It involves the integration of individual clinical expertise with the best available clinical evidence from systematic research and patient's values and expectations. Systematic reviews offer a summary of the best available evidence. They are the most reliable and comprehensive statement about what works. Written by clinical academics from Australia, UK, USA, and Switzerland, this contributed volume introduces the readers to the principles and practice of systematic reviews and meta-analysis. It covers the various steps involved in systematic reviews including development of a focused question and the strategy for conducting a compre...
