Download or read book Risk Markers for Oral Diseases Volume 1 Dental Caries Markers of High and Low Risk Groups and Individuals written by N. W. Johnson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1991-04-04 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Severe oral disease exists in only a minority of any population, and the three volumes forming Risk Markers for Oral Diseases set out to characterise the at-risk groups and define markers by which they may be identified. Reviewing epidemiological, clinical and laboratory data, these volumes point the way towards improved diagnostic and prognostic testing, an exciting and rapidly expanding aspect of dentistry. This volume provides a wide-ranging review of current understanding of the caries process, and examines how this knowledge may be used in the prediction of risk. Among the factors considered are social, behavioural and dietary patterns, the role of bacteria in the natural history of the caries process, the host response to key antigens and the various tooth resistance variables. Strategies for screening and intervention are discussed, and the continuing role of dental education and research assessed. Risk Markers for Oral Diseases represents a landmark in the reorientation of contemporary dentistry towards new goals. This volume and its companions are therefore essential works of reference for all dental professionals. Volume 1: Dental Caries; Volume 2: Oral Cancer; Volume 3: Periodontal Diseases.

Download or read book Oral Cancer written by Newell W. Johnson and published by . This book was released on 1991-01-01 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cancer of the oral and pharyngeal mucosae is a major public health problem in many parts of the world, and dental caries and periodontal diseases are almost universally prevalent. Nevertheless severe oral disease exists in only a minority of any population, and the three volumes comprising Risk Markers for Oral Diseases set out to characterise the at-risk groups and define markers by which they may be identified. Reviewing epidemiological, clinical and laboratory data, these volumes point the way towards improved diagnostic and prognostic testing, an exciting and rapidly expanding aspect of dentistry. Knowledge of the risk factors for oral cancer has lagged behind that for dental caries or periodontal diseases, and this volume provides a wide-ranging survey of the most promising fields of investigation. In addition to the well known aetiological role of tobacco and alcohol, leading research workers from both the dental and the basic sciences review the role of diet and nutrition, infective agents and immunological mechanisms in the genesis of oral cancer. The contribution of modern molecular and cell biology is authoritatively explored, and the scope for improved screening and prevention is an underlying theme throughout the book.

Download or read book Risk Factors for Peri implant Diseases written by Yorimasa Ogata and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-04-01 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, leading experts from around the world present the latest knowledge on the risk factors for peri-implant diseases and also examine the prevalence, etiology, and treatment strategy. Reports have suggested that a variety of risk factors, including poor oral hygiene, a history of periodontitis, diabetes, smoking, lack of keratinized mucosa, and implant surface topography, are associated with these diseases. Periodontally compromised patients who do not adhere completely to the supportive periodontal therapy have been found to present a higher implant failure rate, and several studies have shown that periodontal pathogens can translocate from periodontally involved teeth to the peri-implant sulci in partially dentate patients, highlighting the importance of periodontal treatment of the residual dentition prior to placement of dental implants. Recently a new concept was proposed as intraindividual variation exists in core microbiota in peri-implantitis and periodontitis. In elucidating the strength of association of peri-implant diseases with all of the risk factors identified to date, the book will be of interest to practitioners and other professionals in the field.
Download or read book A Life Course Perspective on Health Trajectories and Transitions written by Claudine Burton-Jeangros and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book examines health trajectories and health transitions at different stages of the life course, including childhood, adulthood and later life. It provides findings that assess the role of biological and social transitions on health status over time. The essays examine a wide range of health issues, including the consequences of military service on body mass index, childhood obesity and cardiovascular health, socio-economic inequalities in preventive health care use, depression and anxiety during the child rearing period, health trajectories and transitions in people with cystic fibrosis and oral health over the life course. The book addresses theoretical, empirical and methodological issues as well as examines different national contexts, which help to identify factors of vulnerability and potential resources that support resilience available for specific groups and/or populations. Health reflects the ability of individuals to adapt to their social environment. This book analyzes health as a dynamic experience. It examines how different aspects of individual health unfold over time as a result of aging but also in relation to changing socioeconomic conditions. It also offers readers potential insights into public policies that affect the health status of a population.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on oral health promotion and the impact of systemic disease in the development of oral disease, as well as how to introduce, apply, and communicate prevention to a patient with a defined risk profile. Prevention in Clinical Oral Health Care integrates preventive approaches into clinical practice, and is a valuable tool for all health care professionals to integrate oral health prevention as a component of their overall preventive message to the patient. Discusses risk-based approaches to prevent problems such as caries, periodontal disease, and oral cancer. Topics are written at a level that can be understood by both practicing dental health team members and by dental hygiene and dental students so strategies can be applied to better understand the patient's risk for oral disease and how to prevent future disease. Identifies the barriers, oral health care needs, and preventive strategies for special populations such as children, the elderly, and the physically or mentally disabled. Explores the development of a culturally sensitive dental practice and strategies to make the dental environment more welcoming to individuals with different cultural backgrounds. Discusses how to gather patient information, the synthesis of the patient's data, and the application of the information collected in order to evaluate the patient's risk for disease.
