Book Description
Dentists are routinely faced with a huge choice of implant systems from different manufacturers, each of whom claims that its own particular system has advantages over the others. There is consequently a need for an evidence-based review of the field that offers authoritative practical guidance for dental practitioners. Oral and Cranial Implants: Recent Research Developments has been written with this in mind. It brings together all the recent key developments in implant research and discusses the underlying science relating to implant procedures and failures. Relevant literature is reviewed and clear practical advice is offered. This book will be ideal for dentists wishing to obtain a snapshot of research in the field and will also be useful for specialists in restorative dentistry. The authors are recognized leading authorities who are well equipped to evaluate the applications and challenges associated with implants.
Complex Dental Implants in Oral and Maxillofacial Reconstruction
Author: Behnam BohluliPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 9783031071164
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This book serves as a bridge between dental implantologists and the various medical specialities that focus on the head and neck area. It highlights the advances made by the evolution of osseointegrated implants and the major procedures impacted by the wide spread use of this kind of implant. Emerging modalities like 3D implants alongside the easy-to-use and practical osseointegrated implant are explored in their usage of aiding numerous complicated surgeries. Written for practicing professionals within plastic surgery, maxillofacial surgery, ENT surgery, oral surgery, dentistry, and other professions that deal with surgery of the head and neck area, this text will elevate the usage of implants for easier, more cosmetically pleasing patient outcomes. While this book will provide an overview of some major cosmetic and reconstructive procedures, it will also touch upon distraction osteogenesis, atrophic jaws, and massive reconstructions. All supplemented by contributions and real patient photos from some of the biggest and leading names in Plastic Surgery, Oral Surgery, and Maxillofacial Surgery.

Book Description
The objective of the project was to develop high-strength reasorbable materials useful in the treatment of maxillofacial injuries. To meet this objective, we prepared high-purity monomers, synthesized high-molecular-weight polymers, fabricated the polymers into sample beams, and evaluated the beams for mechanical properties.

ISBN: 1461439426
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 521
Book Description
This book reviews the current understanding of the mechanical, chemical and biological processes that are responsible for the degradation of a variety of implant materials. All 18 chapters will be written by internationally renowned experts to address both fundamental and practical aspects of research into the field. Different failure mechanisms such as corrosion, fatigue, and wear will be reviewed, together with experimental techniques for monitoring them, either in vitro or in vivo. Procedures for implant retrieval and analysis will be presented. A variety of biomaterials (stainless steels, titanium and its alloys, nitinol, magnesium alloys, polyethylene, biodegradable polymers, silicone gel, hydrogels, calcium phosphates) and medical devices (orthopedic and dental implants, stents, heart valves, breast implants) will be analyzed in detail. The book will serve as a broad reference source for graduate students and researchers studying biomedicine, corrosion, surface science, and electrochemistry.
