This is the first of five volumes on orthodontics.
The last few years have seen a number of advances in dentistry - for example improvements to bonding and filling materials, and the use of lasers for cavity detection. This five-volume book describes many of the recent developments that have occurred both in practical dentistry techniques and also in underpinning theoretical knowledge. With over 120 chapters in all the book is comprehensive in scope, and covers a number of broad topic areas including: dental caries and periodontal diseases (epidemiology, etiology, diagnosis, treatment and prevention), pediatric dentistry, the pros and cons of fluoridation, the relationship between dental health and other diseases/conditions, and current techniques in orthodontics, including specific materials and diagnostic/surgical procedures.
A number of chapters will discuss advances in the rapidly evolving field of implant dentistry, along with the digital technologies (e.g. CAD/CAM) and diagnostic techniques being used to help with implant design, and the clinical complications (such as osteonecrosis) that can result from dental implants.
For students and practitioners in dentistry/orthodontics, this book is a valuable insight into current thinking and recent advances in this challenging and exciting field.
