Periodontics

Fernando Suarez

This expansive textbook covers a broad range of topics to prepare aspiring periodontists for exams as well as serving as a guide or reference for more senior practitioners. Concepts are explained in language simple enough for students but technical enough to communicate the important points and subtleties of the topic. Over 100 vocabulary words are clearly defined and explained in context to facilitate understanding of the material, and the text is accompanied by a great variety of tables, diagrams, and illustrations to allow readers to visualize the area and provide additional context for the information. The textbook begins with a basic overview of periodontal anatomy, then leads the reader through the process of diagnosis, identifying different diseases and potential risks before obtaining a prognosis and creating a treatment plan. This is followed by over a dozen chapters on various treatment methods from SRP to complex surgery and then maintenance. The book concludes with additional concepts important for young dentists to know, including an overview of relevant medications as well as abnormalities and emergencies that may be encountered in daily practice. Nothing is left out in this handy study guide, and both current students and recent graduates will find it invaluable in beginning their careers.

Der Immun-Code

Dr. Dorothea Schleicher-Brückl

Ein starkes und leistungsfähiges Immunsystem ist die wichtigste Voraussetzung, um Bakterien, Viren und andere Krankheitserreger erfolgreich zu bekämpfen und dauerhaft gesund zu bleiben. Für die Stärkung der körpereigenen Abwehr gibt es viele Möglichkeiten: von gesunder Ernährung, genügend Bewegung und ausreichender Entspannung bis hin zu gezielten Prophylaxemaßnahmen und neuen Therapieverfahren wie der paraspezifischen Immunabwehr bei akuten Krisen. Wenn unsere Immunabwehr geschwächt ist, kann sie die alltäglichen Herausforderungen nicht mehr gut meistern, und unser Organismus ist nicht länger gegen Krankheitserreger geschützt. In ihrem Buch Der Immun-Code beschreibt Dr. Schleicher-Brückl den Aufbau des Immunsystems und seine wichtigsten Bestandteile. Sie gibt Ratschläge und Tipps, wie wir unsere Abwehr durch eine entsprechende Ernährung und Lebensweise effizient unterstützen und wie wir erfolgreich vor Infektionen – und somit auch vor dem Coronavirus – schützen können.

Protocols for Mobile Dental Photography with Auxiliary Lighting

Louis Hardan

Billions of photographs are taken worldwide each day, and most of them are captured with a smartphone. In the context of clinical dentistry, many clinicians use their smartphone to take clinical photographs for communication or documentation simply because they cannot operate or afford a professional camera. Author Louis Hardan understands too well how a poorly taken photograph can compromise the quality of dentistry delivered to the patient, which is why he launched the Mobile Dental Photography (MDP) project in 2012. He wanted to find a way to make documentation and communication easy and affordable to all dentists and laboratory technicians, including students. In this book he outlines how to use the smartphone camera with auxiliary lighting and accessories to take photographs for treatment planning, documentation and self-evaluation, communication with the patient and laboratory technician, tracking the evolution of treatment, as well as for publishing, lecturing, and insurance and medicolegal purposes. He also shows how to take artistic photographs to wow your followers on social media and effectively market your practice online. You really can get similar-quality images with a smartphone camera as with a DSLR camera; you just need to know how to use it. This book is the key.
