Book Description
Daskalogiannakis (orthodontics and oral biology, U. of Nymegen, The Netherlands) offers a reference to material that orthodontic residents are likely to encounter during their postgraduate education and/or preparation for Board examinations. He suggests that it might also help undergraduates familiarize themselves with the terminology, serve as an update for orthodontists and general dentists, and provide help to allied professionals who collaborate with orthodontists. Cross- references are largely restricted to alternative names, and no index alleviates the neglect. There are no pronunciation guides to wrap those pretty pearlies around. c. Book News Inc.

Book Description
Hypodontia: A Team Approach to Management provides specialist clinicians with a practical reference to the multidisciplinary management of patients with this condition. The book synthesises current information and best practice from specialties involved in the treatment of hypodontia into one comprehensive volume, emphasising a problem-based approach throughout. This volume is structured over three sections. Part One offers background information on the epidemiology and aetiology of hypodontia, its inheritance patterns and syndromic associations, as well as describing the clinical features of the condition and outlining the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to patient care. Part Two addresses key issues in hypodontia management, namely challenges posed by excessive or inadequate space within and between the dental arches, specific occlusal considerations, and problems related to the supporting tissues. Part Three considers treatment of hypodontia within the framework of three broad stages of dental development: the primary/early fixed dentition, the late mixed dentition/early permanent dentition, and finally the established dentition. Hypodontia: A Team Approach to Management draws on the best available evidence and opinion to provide a complete, in-depth practical resource for dental specialists dealing with this complex condition. Complete multidisciplinary resource on hypodontia Authored by a team with over 30 years of clinical and research experience in the treatment of hypodontia Extensive reference lists Features comprehensive section on age-related approaches to treatment Many clinical illustrations in full colour

Book Description
Organized by the way dental care providers interact with patients, this practical handbook helps anyone working in the dental office to communicate more effectively and improve the quality of care delivered to Spanish-speaking patients. Conveniently sized and easy to use, this valuable resource covers everything from the initial greeting with the patient, to recording the patient's history, assessing the patient's overall health and oral health, and discussing any kind of dental procedure. Even readers with a limited understanding of Spanish grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation will be able to use this guide to formulate explanations, instructions, and questions in Spanish. A companion, audio CD-ROM is included and provides the English to Spanish translation of every phrase in the book. Content covers everything from salutations to case histories and follow up care - in the style dentists and assistants interact with patients. The highly portable, pocket guide format is easy to reference when taking a history or working with a patient. Terminology included in this reference covers the gamut of topics that are essential to effective communication in the dental office - related to both administration and procedures. Clinical exchanges covered in the book include those that deal with the hygiene appointment, the dentist's preventive checkup, taking x-rays, and treatment planning. More specific phrases are found on the specialty dental visits - including periodontics, endodontics, orthodontics, prosthodontics, and cosmetic dentistry - as well as front office exchanges between a patient and the business assistant. Content covers speaking to pediatric patients and includes more simplistic language. Informal expressions provide more casual phrases to use with the patient. A comprehensive glossary offers an English to Spanish list of common words and phrases divided by categories - such as days of the week, interrogative questions, common dental terms, and other terms in common use that are not necessarily related to dentistry. Each English phrase appears in boldface type, and beneath the English phrase is the same phrase in Spanish, not in boldface. Several versions of equivalent expressions are provided to ensure that individuals with different styles of communication will be able to select the expressions that they like best.

Book Description
Teeth are among the best sources of evidence for both identification purposes and studies of demography, biological relationships, and health in ancient human communities. The anthropologist's specimen may be a cast that a dentist has taken from a living mouth, or actual teeth from an archaeological site or forensic case. This text introduces the complex biology of teeth and provides a practical guide to all essential aspects of dental anthropology, including excavation, identification, microscopic study, and tooth age determination. Dental Anthropology is a concise yet comprehensive resource designed for students and researchers in anthropology and archaeology.
