Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les indications et les conséquences générales, à une échelle plus large que la sphère orofaciale, des traitements orthodontico-chirurgicaux prennent de l'importance. Dans ce contexte, l'étude de la posture et de ses relations avec la chirurgie orthognatique paraît pertinente. En effet, il a déjà été établi par le passé qu'un lien entre occlusion et posture ainsi qu'entre typologie faciale et posture était évident. Une revue systématique de la littérature a été réalisée à partir des bases de données Cochrane, PubMed, Scopus et GoogleScholar. La recherche a identifié 17 articles dont un seul traitait de la posture générale, les autres concernaient les relations entre chirurgie orthognatique et posture cervicale ou céphalique. Sur les 17 articles inclus, 13 ont mis en évidence une conséquence de la chirurgie orthognatique sur la posture. La complexité des phénomènes posturaux, l'imbrication d'autres domaines comme les dimensions des voies aériennes supérieures mais également le rôle de la psychologie du patient, rendent cependant cette étude difficile.
Download or read book TMD and Orthodontics written by Sanjivan Kandasamy and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-08-18 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This evidence-based book, featuring contributions from world-renowned experts, discusses in detail the functional anatomy of the temporomandibular joint as well as the aetiology, diagnosis, treatment and medicolegal implications of patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD).Despite advances in our understanding of the aetiology of TMD and in developing current treatment rationales, a number of issues remain controversial. These include the extent to which the temporomandibular joint should be a central focus of orthodontic diagnosis and treatment, as well as the role that occlusion and malocclusion play in precipitating TMD symptoms. Indeed, few subjects in dentistry and the specialty of orthodontics are open to as many interpretations or misinterpretations as TMD. This textbook provides clinical orthodontists with essential information and guidance that will assist them in understanding and effectively managing this complex multilayered problem. Throughout, clear clinical guidelines are presented on the basis of current scientific and clinical evidence. TMD and Orthodontics will be a highly valuable chairside resource for orthodontists everywhere.
Download or read book The Surgery First Orthognathic Approach written by Jong-Woo Choi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-01-20 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive guide to the surgery-first orthognathic approach for patients with malocclusion and skeletal disharmony, which has been successfully applied by the authors in their practices over the past 15 years. The approach breaks with the time-tested principles of traditional orthognathic surgery in that corrective bone surgery is performed first, without the removal of dental compensations, followed by orthodontic finishing. All aspects are covered with the aid of numerous illustrations, the aim being to provide surgeons with a systematic educational tool that will enable them to introduce the approach into their own practice. In addition, the book addresses one of the hot issues in orthodontics, occlusal plane-altering orthognathic surgery, in which surgical modification of the occlusal plane is employed to treat various types of dentofacial deformity and improve facial proportions. This promises to become a very powerful tool in modern orthognathic surgery.

Download or read book The Craniosynostoses written by David J. David and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human skull has many functions. The largest component of the skull, the neurocranium, protects and insulates the brain. It comprises the dome-shaped vault or calvaria, obviously a protective structure, and the more complex cranial base, which gives the vault a massive foundation and also houses the organs of hearing, balance, and smell. The facial skeleton, or splanchnocranium, encloses the upper airway and the mouth. Chewing, the cQ-ordinated action ofthe jaws and teeth, is a function of the facial skeleton. The orbits, formed from both calvarial and facial bones, house the eyes and their accessory muscles. The'skull also provides skeletal support for the muscles which affect speech and facial expression. It is largely by these that people communicate and display their emotions. Personality is judged on speech and on facial appearances, by conscious or subconscious aesthetic comparisons with cultural ideas-and prejudices. So the shape of the skull has, or can have, profound emotional significance.

Download or read book Computational Methods in Solid Mechanics written by A. Curnier and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents an introduction to the three numerical methods most commonly used in the mechanical analysis of deformable solids, viz. the finite element method (FEM), the linear iteration method (LIM), and the finite difference method (FDM). The book has been written from the point of view of simplicity and unity; its originality lies in the comparable emphasis given to the spatial, temporal and nonlinear dimensions of problem solving. This leads to a neat global algorithm. Chapter 1 addresses the problem of a one-dimensional bar, with emphasis being given to the virtual work principle. Chapters 2--4 present the three numerical methods. Although the discussion relates to a one-dimensional model, the formalism used is extendable to two-dimensional situations. Chapter 5 is devoted to a detailed discussion of the compact combination of the three methods, and contains several sections concerning their computer implementation. Finally, Chapter 6 gives a generalization to two and three dimensions of both the mechanical and numerical aspects. For graduate students and researchers whose work involves the theory and application of computational solid mechanics.

Download or read book Mandibular Growth Anomalies written by Hugo L. Obwegeser and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Was ever a foreword requested for God's words? It is not indecent to write a preface for Hugo's "Growing Mandible"? After training in the Jaw's Old Testament, Hugo is writing the New One that he taught for 40 years long. Indeed, the last decade has been fertile in mechanical gadgets which have made diagnosis and surgery easier, such as, accurate CT 3-D images, and absorbable plating or osteodistraction, which brings a fine touch to treatment timing in children. However, all of this does not encompass the intellectual process, basic principles, tactics and procedures.

Download or read book Molar Protraction written by Un-Bong Baik and published by . This book was released on 2013-05-08 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the substitution treatment of a missing 1st molar with protraction (forward movement) of the 2nd and 3rd molars by orthodontic space closure. It is one of the most recent treatment methods using miniscrews (TADs: Temporary Anchorage Devices). In cases of missing teeth--not only the 1st molar but also other teeth--an implant or prosthetic treatment is usually necessary. However, what if the patient considers receiving orthodontic treatment after an implant or prosthetics? Orthodontic treatment would become very difficult because an implant or prosthetics would prohibit orthodontic teeth movement. Figures on the front cover of this book show that the 2nd and 3rd molars have mesially drifted to the missing 1st molar space. The formerly impacted (unable to come in) 3rd molar erupted (came in) properly. Therefore, the 2nd and 3rd molars can function as the 1st and 2nd molars, respectively. In this case, troublesome extraction of the impacted 3rd molar and an implant or prosthetic treatment was unnecessary. Is this possible in all cases? If yes, then to what extent? Would there be any other problems in the periodontal and root structure? The substitution treatment of a missing 1st molar may also have its own risks, but if successful, it can largely benefit patients. This book is an organization of the 110 cases that I have treated, discussing both the positive and negative aspects of the concerned treatment. In addition, this book highlights missing space closure of the 1st molar because it is the most difficult type of orthodontic space closure. The missing space of other teeth is generally easier to close. Prosthodontic, endondontic, or periodontic doctors may have more chances to meet patients who have missing teeth than orthodontic specialists. I'd like to suggest that these doctors take this orthodontic treatment into consideration. Patients, as well as dentists, must be aware of various treatment options, including orthodontic treatment methods. I hope it can be a good option for missing teeth.
Download or read book Cosmetic Injectables in Practice written by Rashmi Sarkar and published by Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers. This book was released on 2020-04-30 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dermal fillers are substances injected into the face to fill lines and add volume to areas such as the lips and cheeks. They are not permanent and usually last between six and eighteen months. Similarly, Botulinum toxin (Botox) injections relax the facial muscles to smooth out line and wrinkles, such as frown lines and crow’s feet. Botox is not permanent and usually lasts for three to four months. This book is a comprehensive guide to the clinical use of fillers and Botox. Beginning with an overview of the history and basic science of cosmetic injectables, the book is then divided into two key sections. Section one examines fillers, discussing facial anatomy, patient selection, anaesthesia, and injection techniques for different areas of the face. Treatment plans, patient consent, and before and after instructions, are also discussed. The second section covers Botox and its use for treating different types of facial lines, and includes chapters on complications and their management, and Botox in men. The extensive text is enhanced by nearly 300 clinical photographs, illustrations and tables.
