Organized into 13 chapters, this book first discusses the effects of lesions of jaw muscle spindle afferents on mastication and regulation of the incisal biting force in monkeys. Subsequent chapters describe the occlusal forces and mandibular movements; muscle spindles and tooth mechano-receptors in the control of mastication; relationship between integrated EMG and tension in opening of the mandible; and sensory regulation of brain stem motoneurons. Other chapters explain electrophysiological properties of nerve endings in teeth; measurement of the behavioral aspects of pain; mechanisms of oral-facial pain; hemodynamic considerations of oral-facial physiology.

This book was released on 2016-01-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MOST PEOPLE DO NOT LOOK FORWARD to visiting the dentist. Many avoid it as long as possible. Yet those same people will leave the dentist's office relieved, often with big smiles (assuming the Novocain has worn off). What most people do not realize is that the profession of dentistry has come a long way in recent years. New techniques and technologies such as lasers and air abrasion devices have changed the way dentists treat patients. A visit no longer has to be a source of dread. Dentistry involves more than just teeth alone. A dentist provides healthcare for the oral cavity, including soft tissue and bone, as well as the associated head and neck region. A typical dentist visit starts with an examination of the patient's teeth and mouth tissue. Based on what the dentist finds, a diagnosis is made and a treatment plan is proposed. Treatment may include removing tooth decay, filling cavities, repairing damaged teeth, extracting teeth, and/or replacing lost teeth. Most dentists are generalists who provide a wide array of services. On a given day, a general dentist will see people of all ages and backgrounds - sometimes entire families. There is never a dull moment because dentists never know who will be in the examining room, or what they will need. A patient could just be there for a checkup and cleaning. In that case, the dental hygienist on staff will take care of the cleaning, and the dental assistant will take a set of x-rays. The dentist will look at the x-rays in search of problems that need to be addressed right away or point out possible problems that need to be watched. The next patient could be suffering from a damaged tooth, broken during a fall. The dentist will need to determine if and how the tooth can be saved, and provide immediate treatment. There are also dentists who practice in certain specialized areas of dentistry. There are nine specialties recognized by the American Dental Association (ADA). Each requires additional training, but the payoff is a higher than average income for the licensed specialist. The most popular specialties are orthodontics (teeth straightening) and prostho¬dontics (artificial teeth). Dentists are highly educated professionals. It takes four years of undergraduate studies as a pre-dental student, followed by another four years in dental school. In order to get into dental school, the applicant must first take the Dental Acceptance Test (DAT) by their junior year in college. Getting into dental school is competitive so scoring well on the test is important. Many students take practice tests, sometimes as early as high school. Dental school is a rigorous mix of classroom instruction and hands-on clinical work. Upon graduation, dentists need to obtain a license to practice. Specific licensure requirements vary by state. Newly minted dentists can look forward to one of the best careers available today. They are well compensated with a median annual income of $150,000. Even those starting out can expect to earn at least $65,000 in their first year of practice. Those who take the time to become specialists can earn more than $180,000. Dentistry is also a stable career with more opportunities than the available dentists can fill. There is a growing demand for dentists that is not expected to slow down any time soon. Perhaps most important of all is the agreeable work-life balance dentists enjoy. Most dentists work in private practice and can decide for themselves how much they want to work. Dentistry is one of the few professional careers that actually offers the chance to work part time without losing traction. If you have an interest in healthcare, and like to work with your hands as well as your mind, dentistry is worth a look.

Download or read book Oral Health Literacy written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2013-02-19 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Institute of Medicine (IOM) Roundtable on Health Literacy focuses on bringing together leaders from the federal government, foundations, health plans, associations, and private companies to address challenges facing health literacy practice and research and to identify approaches to promote health literacy in both the public and private sectors. The roundtable serves to educate the public, press, and policy makers regarding the issues of health literacy, sponsoring workshops to discuss approaches to resolve health literacy challenges. It also builds partnerships to move the field of health literacy forward by translating research findings into practical strategies for implementation. The Roundtable held a workshop March 29, 2012, to explore the field of oral health literacy. The workshop was organized by an independent planning committee in accordance with the procedures of the National Academy of Sciences. The planning group was composed of Sharon Barrett, Benard P. Dreyer, Alice M. Horowitz, Clarence Pearson, and Rima Rudd. The role of the workshop planning committee was limited to planning the workshop. Unlike a consensus committee report, a workshop summary may not contain conclusions and recommendations, except as expressed by and attributed to individual presenters and participants. Therefore, the summary has been prepared by the workshop rapporteur as a factual summary of what occurred at the workshop.
Download or read book Wellbeing at Work written by Jim Clifton and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if the next global crisis is a mental health pandemic? It is here now. One-third of Americans have shown signs of clinical anxiety or depression, and the current state of suffering globally has risen significantly. The mental health pandemic manifests everywhere, not least in your workplace. As organizations around the world face health and social crises, as well as economic uncertainty, acknowledging and improving wellbeing in your workplace is more critical than ever. Increasingly, leaders and managers must support mental health and cultivate resilience in employees — not just increase engagement and performance. Based on more than 100 million Gallup global interviews, Wellbeing at Work shows you how to do just that. Coauthored by Gallup’s CEO and its Chief Workplace Scientist, Wellbeing at Work explores the five key elements of wellbeing — career, social, financial, physical and community — and how organizations can help employees and teams thrive in those elements. The book also gives leaders ideas and action items to help employees use their innate talents and strengths to thrive in each of the wellbeing elements. And Wellbeing at Work introduces a metric to report a person’s best possible life: Gallup Net Thriving, which will become the “other stock price” for organizations. In a world where work and life are more blended than ever, maximizing employee wellbeing takes on greater urgency. Wellbeing at Work shows leaders how to create a thriving and resilient culture. If you and your leaders don’t change the world, who will? Wellbeing at Work includes a unique code to take the CliftonStrengths assessment, which reveals your top five strengths.
