Book excerpt: Contexte : Des travaux récents soulignent l’importance de l’évaluation angiographique des lésions coronaires complexes multiples, qui sont associées à une déstabilisation multifocale des plaques d’athérome et à une augmentation des évènements cardiovasculaires à court et long terme. Par ailleurs, d’autres études suggèrent que les parodontopathies pourraient être un facteur important dans le développement des maladies cardiovasculaires, et également dans la déstabilisation des plaques d’athérome par l’inflammation. But : Le but de notre étude est de déterminer s’il existe, chez un patient ayant présenté un infarctus du myocarde, une relation entre la sévérité de la parodontopathie et la sévérité de la coronaropathie. Matériels et méthodes : Etude prospective sur 150 patients admis en réadaptation cardiaque ambulatoire pour un infarctus du myocarde datant de moins d’un mois et ayant bénéficié d’une coronarographie. L’évaluation de l’atteinte parodontale est réalisée grâce à un panoramique dentaire qui permet l’analyse de 5 paramètres : l’inflammation, la mastication, l’édentation, les caries, et la perte osseuse. La coronarographie permet l’identification des lésions complexes définies par une sténose supérieure à 50%, et au moins 2 critères parmi l’occlusion chronique, l’altération de flux, la présence d’un thrombus, l’irrégularité, ou l’ulcération. Les patients sans lésions complexe ou avec une lésion complexe (groupe lésion complexe simple (LCS)) ont été comparés aux patients avec plus d’une lésion complexe (groupe lésions complexes multiples (LCM)). Résultats : Après infarctus, 21% des patients (32/150) appartiennent au groupe LCM. Les deux groupes ne présentent pas de différence significative au niveau de leurs facteurs de risque cardiovasculaires. Les patients du groupe LCM sont plus souvent multitronculaires que les patients du groupe LCS (88% versus 46%, p 0.001). Les patients du groupe LCM ont une CRP supérieure aux patients du groupe LCS (CRP 10 mg/l : 42% versus 15% p = 0.001). Les patients du groupe LCM ont plus fréquemment une perte osseuse parodontale supérieure à 50% que les patients du groupe LCS mais les résultats sont non significatifs (50% versus 32%, p =0.063). Les autres paramètres d’évaluation bucco dentaires sont comparables. En analyse multivariée une perte osseuse parodontale supérieure à 50% augmente significativement la relation avec les LCM (OR (95%CI) 2.63 (1.03-6.71) p = 0.043)) même après ajustement sur les autres facteurs connus prédictifs de LCM (CRP et atteinte multitronculaire). Conclusion : La perte osseuse est un paramètre simple et objectif d’évaluation de l’atteinte parondontale, prédictif du caractère complexe et multiple des lésions coronaires, de façon indépendante des autres facteurs connus, et permet ainsi d’identifier les patients les plus à risque d’évènements cardio vasculaires.

Download or read book Behavioral Dentistry written by David I. Mostofsky and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-10-07 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Behavioral Dentistry, Second Edition, surveys the vast and absorbing topic of the role of behavioral science in the study and clinical practice of dentistry. An understanding of social sciences has long been a central part of dental education, and essential for developing a clinician’s appreciation of human behavior as it affects efficient dental treatment. This book gathers together contributions from leading experts in each of the major subspecialties of behavioral dentistry. Its aim is not merely to provide the student and clinician with a comprehensive review of the impressive literature or discussion of the theoretical background to the subject, but also with a practical guide to adapting the latest techniques and protocols and applying them to day-to-day clinical practice. This second edition of Behavioral Dentistry discusses biobehavioral processes, including the psychobiology of inflammation and pain, oral health and quality of life, saliva health, and hypnosis in dentistry. The book goes on to examine anxiety, fear, and dental and chronic orofacial pain, and then reviews techniques for designing and managing behavior change. It concludes with a section on professional practice, including care of special needs, geriatric, and diabetic patients, and interpersonal communication in dental education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contents of this book touch on the all major dental biomaterials: polymers, composites, ceramics and metals. The first part introduces the readers to the surface physicochemical and mechanical characterizations at the nanoscopic level, and the use of finite element analysis. The second part discusses dental adhesion, resin-based composites, polymerization contraction stress, impression materials and soft liners for total prosthesis. The third part deals with ceramics in restorative dentistry: zirconia and lithium disilicate, the fractography of dental ceramics, as well as bioglass for bone growth. The fourth part discusses the toxicity of mercury in dentistry, and the use of preventive materials for dental diseases. The concluding part identifies imminent techniques for dental biomaterials, such as additive manufacturing (3D printing), and bioprinting in dentistry.

Download or read book Building Motivational Interviewing Skills written by David B. Rosengren and published by Guilford Press. This book was released on 2012-09-26 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developing expertise in motivational interviewing (MI) takes practice, which is exactly the point of this engaging, user-friendly workbook. The volume is packed with real-world examples from a range of clinical settings, as well as sample interactions and hands-on learning activities. The author is an experienced MI researcher, clinician, and trainer who facilitates learning with quizzes, experiential exercises, and reproducible worksheets. The reader learns step by step how to practice core MI skills: raising the importance of behavior change, fostering the client's confidence, resolving ambivalence, solidifying commitment to change, and negotiating a change plan. The utility of the book is enhanced by the large-size format and lay-flat binding. The book shows how to navigate each session using microskills that many clinicians already know: open-ended questions, affirmations, reflective listening, and summaries, or OARS for short. This book is in the Applications of Motivational Interviewing series.
