Textbook of Periodontology and Oral Implantology - E-Book

This multi-authored text on Periodontology and Oral Implantology, written by leading authorities in the subject of Periodontology in the country, will cater to the needs of the undergraduate and postgraduate dental students, dental hygienists and private practitioners alike. It is a comprehensive text on the etiopathogenesis, diagnosis and management of periodontal diseases at all stages of severity and in combination with other phases of dental care. Based on the new syllabus prescribed by the Dental Council of India, the book discusses all the modern aspects of clinical periodontology. This book Includes topics like Pulpo-Periodontal Involvement, Systemic Effects of Periodontal Diseases, and Infection Control Protocol, thereby sufficing the coverage of revised DCI syllabus. Also discusses chapters like Periodontal splints , Risk factors & Host response in detail as per the revised DCI syllabus. Also there is emphasizes on understanding the clinical phenomena in terms of underlying tissue changes, thereby, correlating basic sciences with clinical aspects of periodontal disease and various therapeutic measures currently in use. It also covers recent advances in periodontology with special emphasis on oral implantology.

Hall’s Critical Decisions in Periodontology, Fifth Edition, is designed to guide students and practitioners in applying their decision-making knowledge in a structured and logical manner whether in diagnosis, treatment selections and options, procedures in various treatments, or evaluating outcomes. This text is organized by clinical problems, all designed to help you make on-target decisions for optimal outcomes. Formerly called Decision Making in Periodontology, this text provides new techniques on periodontal therapy are presented. The contributors to the text represent both north American and international thinking.

Periodontology explores the molecular status in periodontal disease. Optical devices in the diagnosis and management of the disease are also discussed. The book addresses the role of the oral healthcare provider in interprofessional communication in the systemic management of autoimmune bullous disease-associated conditions. A study involving chemically modified tetracyclines and host modulation with nonsurgical and surgical periodontal therapy, including postoperative pain management, is presented here. Therapeutic strategies of stem cell application in bone tissue engineering and the potential of platelet-rich fibrin-sourced growth factors in periodontal procedures to enhance wound healing and regeneration are also proposed. Supportive implant maintenance and regenerative processes are explored. Management of the endoperiodontal lesion is also discussed (note: the recent periodontal classification has not been referenced here). The book explores the best transdisciplinary practices for the management of special healthcare needs patients.
