John Wiley and Sons Ltd Orthognathic Surgery
Book SynopsisORTHOGNATHIC SURGERY Orthognathic Surgery: Principles, Planning and Practice is a definitive clinical guide to orthognathic surgery, from initial diagnosis and treatment planning to surgical management and postoperative care. Addresses the major craniofacial anomalies and complex conditions of the jaw and face that require surgery Edited by two highly experienced specialists, with contributions from an international team of experts Enhanced by case studies, note boxes and more than 2000 clinical photographs and illustrations Serves as an essential reference for higher trainees and practicing clinicians in cranio-maxillofacial surgery, orthodontics, plastic and reconstructive surgery and allied specialties Trade Review"To my knowledge it is the most comprehensive book on the subject...master collaboration...I am just fascinated whenever I have a look into the book" Professor Hugo Obwegeser "This well-illustrated book provides step-by-step approaches to evaluation, planning, and treatment for just about every craniofacial deformity, as well as adjunctive techniques including cosmetic surgery approaches." (Doody Enterprises 19/05/2017) ‘…a jewel, a true diamond for the specialty. The presentation, the different chapters are unique, all the photographs and diagrams are fabulous. There was a need for this book for a long time…residents in Orthodontics and Maxillofacial Surgery need to be exposed to the "State of the Art" in this unique junction between the two specialties. Postgraduate students will be exposed to the principles of Orthodontics and Surgery and help patients for generations to come…ordering and sequencing was extraordinary, and inviting the Father of Orthognathic Surgery to bring his best cases and original explanations make the book a true milestone for the years to come…the greatest contribution made to Orthognathic Surgery since William Bell and Hugo Obwegeser’s books.’ Professor Cesar Guerrero 'A definitive tome… multi-authored by a wide range of clinicians with a huge range of expertise, and covers all aspects of orthognathic surgery… more than just another orthodontic-surgical textbook…definitely belongs in the library of all departments that undertake orthognathic surgery. It is beautifully illustrated throughout and contains numerous clinical cases…extraordinary range of the different authors, which includes not just surgeons and orthodontists but psychologists, speech and language therapists, nutritionists and even a patient!...a pleasure to read.’ (Journal of Orthodontics, 44:2, 2017) ‘This textbook is unique. There are 61 chapters and 95 contributing authors. The book begins with a wonderful introductory chapter on the historical background of orthognathic surgery written by the father of modern orthognathic surgery, Prof. Hugo Obwegeser. As Dr Naini is an orthodontist, he has included many chapters on pre-operative and post-operative orthodontic consideration for orthognathic surgery. The details about surgical technique are also covered in detail. This book should be added to the catalogue of must-read books for both oral and maxillofacial surgeons and orthodontists.’ (Maxillofacial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 39:20, 2017) ‘This text addresses all aspects of orthognathic surgery. It is separated into two parts, the first on principles and treatment planning and the second on clinical practice, including meticulous instructions for surgical planning and specific techniques for an impressive number of dentofacial deformities. Each chapter contains tables, case studies, and graphs to enhance the concepts described. With contributions from a number of experts, this book will be a valuable resource for practicing oral surgeons, as well as for those clinicians and students wanting to improve their surgical skills.’ (Journal of Clinical Orthodontics, 2017) Table of ContentsForeword xix Preface xxi Acknowledgements xxiii Contributors xxv 1 Introduction: Orthognathic Surgery – A Life’s Work 1 Hugo L.

After his unexpected encounters with dentistry from an early age and his time as a student at Guy’s Hospital in the seventies, Gerald Feaver describes embarking on a fulfilling and rewarding career that became his great passion. He writes of the amazing people he met over the years and how his life was enriched by hearing insights into their remarkable lives (yes, dentists do allow their patients to speak sometimes!), fascinating tales of romance, intrigue and heroism. This memoir is full of humour, interspersed with some poignant and personal moments that encapsulate the life of a dentist and patients in a variety of situations. The perception that a visit to the dentist was something to be feared or at least endured, was an anathema to him. Gerald always wanted his patients to feel relaxed and at ease. Revealing the human side of dentistry, the care and compassion that dentists strive to achieve when treating their patients, Gerald hopes that this book may help to reduce the fear that many still have about a visit to the dentist’s chair.

John Wiley and Sons Ltd EvidenceBased Dentistry
Book SynopsisThis introduction to Evidence-Based Dentistry provides a much-needed orientation in the subject for students and professionals alike. It is a ground-level book for those seeking to understand evidence-based dentistry and its significance for clinical practice. The book is anchored in the dental literature: the majority of the chapters offer guidance on interpreting a full published paper; where both the subject of the paper and the study design is of relevance to the field of dentistry. Each chapter is organised in a similar way, providing a structured approach to reading and understanding research articles or commercial product information. In this respect, Evidence-Based Dentistry is designed as an introduction to understanding published research and its implications for the dental surgery; rather than as a guide on undertaking research. Incorporates topical published papers in order to rpovide workedTrade Review"Suitable for both undergraduates and professional dentists with years of practice under their belts alike, this 200-page paperback aims to provide a basic understanding of research in dentistry and how it is conducted and reported This book provides an invaluable insight into how scientific findings in dentistry are researched and reported." bdanews, December 2006 Table of ContentsForeword viii Preface ix Acknowledgements xii 1 Evidence-based dentistry: what it is and how to practice it 1 What is evidence-based dentistry? 1 Why do we need evidence-based dentistry? 2 How to practice evidence-based dentistry 3 2 Counting people: understanding percentages and proportions 10 What is the aim of the study? 10 How was the study conducted? 11 What are the main results? 12 The implications of conducting a study based on a sample of people 15 How good is the evidence? 19 What does the study contribute to dental practice? 23 3 Taking measurements on people 31 What is the aim of the study? 31 How was the study conducted? 32 What are the main results? 35 Normal distribution 35 Interpreting the results from non-symmetric data 40 4 Comparing groups of people and examining associations 44 Comparing two percentages (or proportions) 44 Comparing two means 51 Examining associations 55 5 Assessing the effectiveness of treatments 68 Main design elements of randomised clinical trials 69 A clinical trial based on counting people 71 A clinical trial based on taking measurements on people 89 Appendix I.

Stanford University Press Jaws: The Story of a Hidden Epidemic
Book SynopsisThere's a silent epidemic in western civilization, and it is right under our noses. Our jaws are getting smaller and our teeth crooked and crowded, creating not only aesthetic challenges but also difficulties with breathing. Modern orthodontics has persuaded us that braces and oral devices can correct these problems. While teeth can certainly be straightened, what about the underlying causes of this rapid shift in oral evolution and the health risks posed by obstructed airways? Sandra Kahn and Paul R. Ehrlich, a pioneering orthodontist and a world-renowned evolutionist, respectively, present the biological, dietary, and cultural changes that have driven us toward this major health challenge. They propose simple adjustments that can alleviate this developing crisis, as well as a major alternative to orthodontics that promises more significant long-term relief. Jaws will change your life. Every parent should read this book.Trade Review"Paul Ehrlich is the world's best-known and most distinguished ecologist, and one of the best known figures in any field of science. Now, teaming up with Sandra Kahn, he offers us his most personal and practical book to date. You'll discover the widespread consequences of how you carry out such seemingly mundane, automatic, and repetitive acts as breathing, smiling, and sleeping—and how your ways of doing those things affect peoples' perceptions of you. Read, enjoy, learn, and prepare to be astonished!"—Jared Diamond, Pulitzer-Prize-winning author of Guns, Germs, and Steel "The specialty of orthodontics has the potential to lead the way out of this epidemic of chronic disease (including malocclusion).

Oxford University Press Teeth
Book SynopsisTeeth are amazing - the product of half a billion years of evolution. They provide fuel for the body by breaking apart other living things; and they must do it again and again over a lifetime without themselves being broken in the process. This means that plants and animals have developed tough or hard tissues for protection, and teeth have evolved ways to sharpen or strengthen themselves to overcome those defences. And just as different jobs require different tools, animals with different diets have different shaped teeth to deal with the variety of foods that they eat.In this Very Short Introduction, Peter S. Ungar, an award-winning author and leading scientist, presents the story of teeth. Ungar outlines the key concepts, including insights into the origin of teeth and their evolution. Considering why teeth are important, he describes how they are made, and how they work, including their fundamental importance in the fossil record. Ungar finishes with a review of mammal teeth, lookiTable of Contents1. Teeth matter ; 2. Types and parts of teeth ; 3. What teeth do: food and feeding ; 4.
