Download or read book Principles of Medical and Dental Lasers written by Rene Franzen and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-10-11 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is especially written for physicians and dentists who are new to the exciting field of lasers. It will give you a good reference for the physical and biophysical part of laser medicine and dentistry. It may also serve you well as a reference and study material in a fellowship or master's program. There are many books about lasers and laser physics, but these are written by physicists for physicists - and they generally do not address the specific knowledge a doctor needs to be aware of when it comes to laser-tissue-interaction. In this book, I want to cut to the chase. I will give you the background information you need when new to the field of laser medicine or laser dentistry: Your laser: what is that thing you just bought or are considering to use? How does absorption, scattering and transmission in biological tissues take place? On what parameters do the clinical effects depend? How can a laser be used as a minimally invasive tool in modern medicine?

This book was released on 2019-12-11 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Up to 70% of oral cancers are preceded by premalignant oral lesions, such as persistent red or white patches in the mouth. Survival rates for oral cancer can be improved through early detection. It is therefore essential that oral health professionals such as dentists, dental hygienists, dental therapists, and oral health therapists understand the importance of conducting a thorough oral screening examination for malignant and potentially malignant lesions as part of their routine clinical assessments, even in younger populations considered at lower risk for oral cancer. Key features of the book include: laser treatment techniques ,human genome sequencing, early detection and multidisciplinary approach ,management strategies and mechanisms of proliferation and energy metabolism in oral cancer.
