Current Controversies in Temporomandibular Disorders
Author: Craniomandibular Institute. Squaw Valley Winter Seminar
Publisher: Quintessence Publishing (IL)
ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
This proceedings volume discloses the various and, at times, conflicting views regarding temporomandibular disorders (TMD) as presented at the Craniomandibular Institute's 10th Annual Squaw Valley Winter Seminar held in January 1991. The field of TMD has been long on testimonials and clinical opinion but short on scientific documentation. As a result, there is presently a growing concern in the field that scientific foundation is needed to support the various belief systems and to improve credibility. This seminar encouraged participants to openly discuss and expose the controversial issues plaguing the field and to provide clinical and basic research to support or to question those issues. To this end, 14 internationally renowned experts assembled to discuss the current status of terminology, epidemiology, etiology, diagnoses, and management for TMD. This book is divided into four main parts, each of which helps to provide the reader with a better understanding of the complexity of TMD. A wide variety of scientific evidence, clinical experience, and informed opinions is presented. This variety will ensure that the volume will serve as the foundation for future discoveries in the study of TMD. As such, this book will be of interest to all who work within the field.

Languages : en
Pages : 362
Book Description
Since its introduction in 1972, X-ray computed tomography (CT) has evolved into an essential diagnostic imaging tool for a continually increasing variety of clinical applications. The goal of this book was not simply to summarize currently available CT imaging techniques but also to provide clinical perspectives, advances in hybrid technologies, new applications other than medicine and an outlook on future developments. Major experts in this growing field contributed to this book, which is geared to radiologists, orthopedic surgeons, engineers, and clinical and basic researchers. We believe that CT scanning is an effective and essential tools in treatment planning, basic understanding of physiology, and and tackling the ever-increasing challenge of diagnosis in our society.

Treatment Planning in Dentistry - E-Book
Author: Stephen J. Stefanac
Publisher: Elsevier Health Sciences
ISBN: 0323078230
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 513
Book Description
This book provides essential knowledge for creating treatment plans for adult dental patients. Treatment planning strategies are presented to help with balancing the ideal with the practical, with emphasis placed on the central role of the patient — whose needs should drive the treatment planning process. The focus is on planning of treatment, not on the comprehensive details of every treatment modality in dentistry. CD-ROM bound into book presents five cases of varying difficulty with interactive exercises that allow users to plan treatment. What's the Evidence? boxes link clinical decision-making and treatment planning strategies to current research. In Clinical Practice boxes highlight specific clinical situations faced by the general dentist. Review Questions and Suggested Projects, located at the end of each chapter, summarize and reinforce important concepts presented in the book. Key Terms and Glossary highlights the terms that are most important to the reader. Suggested Readings lists included at the end of most chapters provide supplemental resources. Chapter on Treatment Planning for Smokers and Patients with Oral Cancer addresses the dentist's role in managing patients with oral cancer, recognizing oral cancer and differential diagnosis of oral lesions, planning treatment for patients undergoing cancer therapy, and smoking cessation strategies. Chapter on Treatment Planning for the Special Care/Special Needs Patient examines the role of the general dentist in the management of patients with a variety of conditions including physical handicaps, mental handicaps, head trauma, hemophilia, and patients' needs before, during, or after major surgery. Chapter on Treatment Planning for the Alcohol and Substance Abuser discusses the challenges of treating this patient population, as well as how to recognize the problem, delivery of care, scope of treatment, and behavioral/compliance issues. Expanded content on Ethical and Legal Issues in Treatment Planning reflects new accreditation guidelines. Dental Team Focus boxes highlight the relevance of chapter content to the dental team. Ethics Topics boxes emphasize the ethical topics found within each chapter. International Tooth Numbering is listed alongside the U.S. tooth numbers in examples and illustrations.

Book Description
This book is intended to familiarize you with the basics of theory and practice in Adams Multibody Dynamics (MBD) modeling. The content has been developed to be beneficial to readers who are students or practicing engineers who are either completely new to MBD modeling or have some experience with MBD modeling. The author’s lengthy experience using the Adams software adds a practical and, occasionally, humorous complement to standard documentation and training materials, intended to benefit you while learning Adams. The book features relatively small examples which you can readily build and execute. This book contains an introduction to Adams theory which provides the basics on how Adams models are formulated and then numerically solved. Finally, this book concludes with some success stories taken from industry.
