Springer Nature Switzerland AG Nitrous Oxide in Pediatric Dentistry: A Clinical
Book SynopsisThis clinical handbook is a complete guide to the use of nitrous oxide when performing dental procedures in children. Nitrous oxide offers the easiest and safest form of pharmacological behavior management in this age group and can help greatly in reducing fear and anxiety toward dentists and dental treatment. Importantly, its use in children differs from that in adults, owing in part to the need for appropriate behavior management skills. In considering a range of clinical scenarios in which nitrous oxide is of value, this book will support clinicians in their daily practice. All aspects are covered, including rationale, basic science, mechanism of action, equipment, scavenging systems, technique, monitoring, safety, toxicity, documentation, and team building. Guidance is also provided on the use of nitrous oxide in special pediatric populations requiring oral health care. The book is supplemented by videos that will help readers to comprehend the text easily and to perform the technique efficiently and effectively. Table of ContentsRationale for Using Nitrous Oxide in Pediatric Dentistry.- Basic Science of Nitrous Oxide Gas.- Mechanism of Action of Nitrous Oxide in Pediatric Dentistry.- Technical Considerations for the Use of Nitrous Oxide in Pediatric Dentistry.- Clinical Application of Nitrous Oxide in Pediatric Dentistry.- Risks of Nitrous Oxide.- Sedation Using Nitrous Oxide in Special Children.- Past and Current of Nitrous Oxide Usage in Pediatric Dentistry.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG A Guide to Good Occlusal Practice
Book SynopsisThis book considers occlusion within the different disciplines of clinical dentistry, taking into account the challenges specific to each, in order to develop guidelines of good occlusal practice (GGOP). The GGOP for each discipline has benefited from an authoritative contribution of a recognised specialist in that field. Readers will find full description of what constitutes good occlusal practice in, for example, simple and advanced restorative dentistry, removable prosthodontics, the restoration of the worn dentition and implantology. It is clearly explained why and how the GGOP differ in the various branches of dentistry, the key point being that it is the support for the occlusal surfaces that determines GGOP. One of the foundations of this work is that an occlusion can only be judged by the tissue reactions to it: there is no such thing as an intrinsically bad occlusion or malocclusion. Today it remains the case that many dentists feel that occlusion represents an important gap in their knowledge; indeed, some qualify with little more than the belief that “occlusion is important”. Their vulnerability in this area of clinical practice is confirmed when early cases fail to go as well as hoped. In providing comprehensive guidance on good occlusal practice in different contexts, this book will be of value for a wide range of dental practitioners.Trade Review“The BDJ Clinician’s Guides series aims to support dental undergraduates and newly qualified clinicians and to act as a refresher for more experienced dentists. Dental occlusion is an area where all the above may benefit from help. This updated book is full of practical clinical information. It is generally up-to-date and evidence-based and is a valuable addition to the series.” (Robert Jagger, British Dental Journal, Vol. 233 (6), September, 2022)Table of ContentsIntroduction.- What is Occlusion?.- Examination and Recording of the Occlusion.- Good Occlusal Practice in Simple Restorative Dentistry.- Good Occlusal Practice in Advanced Restorative Dentistry.- Good Occlusal Practice in Removable Prosthodontics.- Orthodontics and Occlusion.- Occlusal Considerations in Periodontology.- Good Occlusal Practice in Children’s Dentistry.- Management of Tooth Surface Loss.- Good Occlusal Practice in Provision of Implanted Supported Prosthesis.- Bruxism.

Springer International Publishing AG Clinical Decision-Making in Oral Medicine: A
Book SynopsisAccurately diagnosing the myriad of diseases that can affect the mouth, guiding patients correctly, and offering treatment with competence is a permanent challenge for dental surgeons and health professionals. Often, the diagnosis of these diseases is neglected or wrongly performed. This concise book guides health professionals in clinical decision making in oral diseases, assisting them not only on the diagnosis and treatment of oral and maxillofacial diseases, but also in terms of value and benefit of who treats the condition and, above all, who will be treated. The work provides guidelines formulated by a compilation of specific protocols of conduct, focusing on the scientific evidence and enriched by the authors’ critical analyses. The book is divided into eight main sections that include twenty-eight chapters. Most of them have no more than 5 pages and follow the same format to standardize their use. Each chapter begins with a summary of the topic, a brief description of the main disease that fall into this diagnostic category, and their main definitions. Then, the clinical characteristics, ways of making the diagnosis, and a protocol for treatment for each lesion are presented. Additionally, the experienced authors interestingly discuss their perceptions on how to give bad news in the Oral Medicine setting; and the last section is especially dedicated to the dental management of medically complex patients or with little-known diseases, such as Burning Mouth Syndrome and COVID-19. More than 140 high resolution clinical images illustrate the book. Clinical Decision-Making in Oral Medicine targets is designed for health professionals and physicians from various specialties, who are interested in diseases with systemic repercussions that affect the oral and maxillofacial complex and in oral repercussions of treatments for complex diseases such as head and neck cancer. Students in dentistry may also find the book of value.Table of Contents

Springer International Publishing AG Mechanisms of Mineralization of Vertebrate
Book SynopsisThe book presents a multi-disciplinary approach to understanding mechanisms regulating the formation of mineral in vertebrate skeletal and dental tissues. The focus of the book is directed toward the mineralization process, an evolutionarily conserved system in which cells synthesize a complex and unique extracellular matrix into which mineral is deposited. Regulatory control is viewed though lenses that emphasize the genetic, physical-chemical, biochemical, structural, cellular and extracellular aspects of the mineralization process as they relate to crystal nucleation, growth and maturation. Throughout the book, defects in regulation at the genetic and transcriptional levels are linked to the numerous clinical problems associated with the mineralization of bone, cartilage, tendon, tooth, and soft tissues. The book serves as a comprehensive text for basic scientists and scholars working in the many areas that comprise hard tissue research, as well as undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and those contemplating working in the field of biomineralization or who need a review of a specific mineralization topic.
