More Than Just Straightening Teeth There's a stigma attached to braces that may discourage patients from wanting them. They may have it in their minds that it's painful, it's tedious, or that they'll be stuck in them for years on end without being able to eat their favorite foods. Maybe they're afraid their peers will judge them at school or in the workplace. But orthodontics has come a long way. Dr. Stuart Frost is a pioneer of art in orthodontics, and focuses on helping his patients in any way he can to create an amazing smile he calls a Frostsmile. In The Artist Orthodontist: Creating An Artistic Smile Is More Than Just Straightening Teeth , you'll learn everything you need to know about orthodontic treatment, including: - how orthodontics today is kinder and gentler, - the relationship between sleep apnea and orthodontics, and - the beauty and technicality behind an amazing Frostsmile. A mouthful of clunky, painful, and troublesome braces is a thing of the past. Learn how orthodontics can set you on the path to succeed in your life, one smile at a time.
This book examines the complex and conflicting relationships between LGBT people and our cultural and heritage organisations including libraries, museums and archives. In this unique book established author John Vincent draws together current good practice, and also highlights issues which urgently still need to be addressed. To set the work of libraries, museums and archives in context, Vincent traces the development of LGBT rights in the UK. He goes on to examine some of the reasons for hostility and hatred against this minority group and critically explores provision that has been made by cultural and heritage organisations. He offers examples of good practice - not only from the UK, but from across the world - and draws up an essential 'charter' for future development. This compelling, practical book should be read by managers and staff in libraries, museums and archives around the world looking for guidance on this important issue.

Hot Topics, Public Culture, Museums engages the highly problematic and increasingly important issue of museums, science centres, their roles in contemporary societies, their engagement with “hot” topics and their part in wider conversations in a networked public culture. Hot topics such as homosexuality, sexual, and racial violence, massacres, drugs, terrorism, GMO foods, H1M1 (swine flu) and climate change are now all part of museological culture. The authors in this collection situate cultural institutions in an increasingly interconnected, complex, globalising and uncertain world and engage the why and how institutions might form part of, activate conversations and action through discussions that theorise institutions in new ways to the very practical means in which institutions might engage their constituencies.
