Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patients spend millions of dollars each year on diagnosis and treatment of periodontal disease. A practicing dentist and expert witness with over twenty-five years of experience takes a behind-the-scenes look at the world of dentistry while teaching about the importance of good occlusion, how orthodontists have failed their patients, and the many shortfalls of periodontics. David DiBenedetto, DMD, claims that occlusion-how our teeth meet when our jaws are brought together-is of crucial importance to dental health. He also states that the field of orthodontics continues to concern itself about aesthetics, not on how jaws function, even though studies illustrate that orthodontic treatment does not increase the chances of keeping teeth later in life. Dr. DiBenedetto has made it his life's work to educate dental patients on the importance overall health plays in determining dental health and in what treatment works best for periodontal disease. You will learn: How periodontists and orthodontists think How the jaw works How to determine what you want from your orthodontist How you can keep your teeth and gums healthy Case histories, photographs, and diagrams are provided in this informative guidebook that will help explore your difficult dental questions in a logical manner.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Orthodontics Health Guide for Beginners Orthodontics is the field of dentistry dedicated to correcting misaligned teeth and jaws. The term "orthodontics" is derived from two Greek words: "ortho," meaning straight, and "odontos," meaning tooth. Essentially, it is the science and art of straightening teeth to create a harmonious and functional bite. At its core, orthodontics is concerned with the alignment and positioning of teeth within the dental arches and the relationship between the upper and lower jaws. It addresses a wide range of dental issues, including overcrowded or widely spaced teeth, overbites, underbites, crossbites, and other irregularities that affect the way teeth and jaws function. Orthodontic treatment involves the use of various appliances, most notably braces and clear aligners, to gradually move teeth into their proper positions. Orthodontists, who are dental specialists with advanced training in orthodontics, assess patients' dental and facial structures, develop treatment plans, and oversee the entire process of alignment correction. Beyond purely cosmetic concerns, orthodontics plays a significant role in improving oral health and overall quality of life. Straightening teeth and aligning jaws can address a host of issues that extend beyond aesthetics. Properly aligned teeth are easier to clean, reducing the risk of gum disease, tooth decay, and bad breath. A well-balanced bite ensures that chewing and speaking are more efficient and comfortable. orthodontic treatment can contribute to enhanced self-esteem and confidence, as a beautiful smile often results in increased social and psychological well-being.
