The contents of this book touch on the all major dental biomaterials: polymers, composites, ceramics and metals. The first part introduces the readers to the surface physicochemical and mechanical characterizations at the nanoscopic level, and the use of finite element analysis. The second part discusses dental adhesion, resin-based composites, polymerization contraction stress, impression materials and soft liners for total prosthesis. The third part deals with ceramics in restorative dentistry: zirconia and lithium disilicate, the fractography of dental ceramics, as well as bioglass for bone growth. The fourth part discusses the toxicity of mercury in dentistry, and the use of preventive materials for dental diseases. The concluding part identifies imminent techniques for dental biomaterials, such as additive manufacturing (3D printing), and bioprinting in dentistry.

Health System Performance Comparison: an Agenda for Policy, Information and Research
Author: Irene Papanicolas
Publisher: McGraw-Hill Education (UK)
ISBN: 033524727X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 418
Book Description
International comparison of health system performance has become increasingly popular, made possible by the rapidly expanding availability of health data. It has become one of the most important levers for prompting health system reform. Yet, as the demand for transparency and accountability in healthcare increases, so too does the need to compare data from different health systems both accurately and meaningfully. This timely and authoritative book offers an important summary of the current developments in health system performance comparison. It summarises the current state of efforts to compare systems, and identifies and explores the practical and conceptual challenges that occur. It discusses data and methodological challenges, as well as broader issues such as the interface between evidence and practice. The book draws out the priorities for future work on performance comparison, in the development of data sources and measurement instruments, analytic methodology, and assessment of evidence on performance. It concludes by presenting the key lessons and future priorities, and in doing so offers a rich source of material for policy-makers, their analytic advisors, international agencies, academics and students of health systems.

Guide pratique d'implantologie
Author: Benjamin Pomès
Publisher: Elsevier Health Sciences
ISBN: 2294777700
Category : Medical
Languages : fr
Pages : 358
Book Description
Le besoin en information et en formation en implantologie est en constante augmentation. Cet ouvrage, basé sur le programme du DU d'implantologie de la Faculté de médecine Pierre-et-Marie-Curie, a été pensé comme un support de formation et de travaux pratiques. L'approche claire et didactique, ainsi que les nombreux « pas à pas » et cas cliniques vous apporteront toutes les clefs pour réussir vos plans de traitements. Les notions fondamentales, telles que la législation, la classification des implants ou la préparation de la salle d'intervention sont rappelées dans une première partie. Les deux parties suivantes sont consacrées à la pose d'implants et aux prothèses dentaires (fixes et amovibles), des techniques classiques, aux techniques particulières comme les implants zygomatiques. Sont décrits en détail les protocoles cliniques et les erreurs à éviter. Cet ouvrage s'adresse aux chirurgiens dentistes, stomatologistes, aux étudiants des DU d'implantologie et aux praticiens souhaitant faire évoluer leur pratique.

Computational Biomechanics
Author: Kozaburo Hayashi
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 4431669515
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
The combination of readily available computing power and progress in numerical techniques has made nonlinear systems - the kind that only a few years ago were ignored as too complex - open to analysis for the first time. Now realistic models of living systems incorporating the nonlinear variation and anisotropic nature of physical properties can be solved numerically on modern computers to give realistically usable results. This has opened up new and exciting possibilities for the fusing of ideas from physiology and engineering in the burgeoning new field that is biomechanics. Computational Biomechanics presents pioneering work focusing on the areas of orthopedic and circulatory mechanics, using experimental results to confirm or improve the relevant mathematical models and parameters. Together with two companion volumes, Biomechanics: Functional Adaptation and Remodeling and the Data Book on Mechanical Properties of Living Cells, Tissues, and Organs, this monograph will prove invaluable to those working in fields ranging from medical science and clinical medicine to biomedical engineering and applied mechanics.

New chapters cover robotic arthroplasty and strategies in total knee arthroplasty, along with a collection of more unusual cases, enabling the reader to develop their confidence in dealing with a range of clinical scenarios. Surgery of the Knee systematically reviews a range of knee surgery indications and techniques. It represents a timely and valuable resource for both trainee orthopaedic specialists, and practising surgeons who seek to develop a deeper understanding of how to approach treating their patients.

Reconstruction of the Knee Joint
Author: S. Niwa
Publisher: Springer
ISBN:
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 436
Book Description
More than 20 years have passed since the International Symposium on Total Knee Replacement was held in London in 1974. Prosthetic design and operative technique have been greatly improved since then, and there is now an accepted standard concept of total knee arthroplasty. Thirteen years after the London symposium, another international symposium on total knee replacement was held, this time in Nagoya, Japan, in 1987. Its ambitious objective was to push forward the frontiers of continuous investigation and improve ment of total knee replacement. The fruits of the individual efforts presented at the Nagoya symposium were published in a volume of proceedings entitled Total Knee Replacement. In the years since 1987, further investigations have been conducted in various parts of the world regarding prosthetic design, fixation, long-term radiological follow-up, biomechanical evaluation, and biomaterials research. In knee ligament reconstruc tion, rapid progress has been made in the past five years in clinical practice and fundamental research by means of arthroscopic surgery and tissue transplantation, and we have come close to establishing a standard treatment. Under these circumstances, an international symposium on knee joint reconstruc tion was planned for 1994, again to be held in Nagoya, to provide ample opportunity for exchanging information and sharing clinical experience from around the world.
