Download or read book Mineralized Tissues in Oral and Craniofacial Science written by Laurie K. McCauley and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-06-05 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mineralized Tissues in Oral and Craniofacial Science is a major comprehensive update on knowledge in the field of mineralized tissues in the oral and craniofacial region. Drs. McCauley and Somerman assembled an international team of researchers and clinicians, offering a global perspective on the current knowledge in this field. Basic and clinical correlates reinforce the significance of research to clinical diagnoses and therapies, written in a manner that lends easily to their use for case study teaching venues. Section 1 features the many aspects of bone in the craniofacial region, including embryology, cell biology, and stem cell biology. Section 2 focuses on teeth-tooth development, dentin, enamel, cementum, and tooth regeneration. Section 3 discusses the interaction between bones and teeth, including those associated with inflammatory processes, periodontal ligaments, biomechanics, and other impact factors-such as nutrition, metabolic bone diseases and therapeutic modalities. The novel approach of linking the basic principles of the cell and molecular biology of hard tissues to clinical correlates will appeal to readers at all levels of their research careers, both students and faculty; faculty interested in a comprehensive text for reference; and clinicians interested in the biologic aspects of bones and teeth.
Download or read book Dento Oro Craniofacial Anomalies and Genetics written by Agnes Bloch-Zupan and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-03-21 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dental defects may be the physical expression of genetic defects, and so they can often be seen in a variety of syndromes associated with malformations of organs. However, dental defects are often not recognized, identified, nor characterised despite representing a possible diagnostic sign for an undiagnosed condition. This book addresses this gap by providing an understanding of dental genetics and its developmental biology counterpart. With approximately seventy well-illustrated examples, the authors present the clinical oro-facial manifestations accompanying various syndromes, providing the necessary knowledge for diagnostic purposes, as well as giving insight into recent development for each specific condition. The clarity and format of this book make it an ideal support guide both in the clinic and while conducting research. Comprehensive examination of dento/oro/craniofacial anomalies Well-illustrated examples Presented in a compact, easy to use format

Download or read book Craniofacial Biology and Craniofacial Surgery written by Bernard George Sarnat and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2010 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is unique. It deals primarily with and brings together a wide-ranging group of essays spanning more than half a century's worth of research done by Bernard G Sarnat. Much of this historical review remains significant and germane today. Some material antedates the emergence of the specialties of craniofacial biology, craniofacial surgery, and bone biology, while many of the reports preceded the period of molecular biology. This book thus represents a fundamental pioneering contribution to a representative portion of the specialties. Building on past data reported by Sarnat, James P Bradley contributes significantly to the present by including recent works which cover issues dealing with stem cell, tissue regeneration and tissue engineering research. In addition, appropriately selected clinical work is included a result of the further development and maturity of the specialties. And what does the future hold? No doubt unpredictable gigantic advances. The purpose of this selective, organized, and limited review, analysis, and summary of personally conducted experiments is to relate certain aspects of differential growth and change and nonchange to age, sites, rates, factors, and mechanisms. In many instances, correlations are made between research findings and clinical practice, and this retrospective study brings all of them together.

Download or read book Material Tissue Interfacial Phenomena written by Paulette Spencer and published by Woodhead Publishing. This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Material-Tissue Interfacial Phenomena: Contributions from Dental and Craniofacial Reconstructions explores the material/tissue interfacial phenomena using dental and craniofacial reconstructions as a model system. As the mouth is a particularly caustic environment, the synthetic and/or bio-enabled materials used to repair damaged tissues and restore form, function, and esthetics to oral structures must resist a variety of physical, chemical, and mechanical challenges. These challenges are magnified at the interface between dissimilar structures such as the tooth/material interface. Interfacial reactions at the atomic, molecular, and nano-scales initiate the failure of materials used to repair, restore, and reconstruct dental and craniofacial tissues. Understanding the phenomena that lead to failure at the interface between dissimilar structures, such as synthetic materials and biologic tissues, is confounded by a variety of factors that are thoroughly discussed in this comprehensive book. Provides a specific focus on the oral environment Combines clinical views and basic science into a useful reference book Presents comprehensive coverage of material-interfacial phenomena within the oral environment
Download or read book Perspectives in Genetic and Epigenetic Regulatory Mechanisms in Dental and Craniofacial Biology written by Weimin Lin and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2023-12-29 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetic factors have been proved to be involved in almost all dental and craniomaxillofacial diseases. Typical dental and craniomaxillofacial hereditary diseases refer to hereditary diseases which occurs in the oral and maxillofacial area, as well as systemic or other system hereditary diseases accompanied by oral abnormality. The former includes enamel hypoplasia, dentin hypoplasia and cleft lip and palate, which mainly occur in the oral cavity. While the latter commonly includes cranial clavicle hypoplasia, congenital ectodermal hypoplasia, osteogenesis imperfecta, and osteosclerosis. In addition, common diseases that appear locally in the oral cavity, including caries, periodontitis, oral mucosal diseases and head and neck tumors, are also considered to be related to genetic variations. With the increase of large-scale genome-wide association analysis study (GWAS) during the last decade, common loci for many genetic diseases have been identified. To date, most evidence comes from GWAS of dental caries and periodontal disease, which have tested associations between millions of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and typical binary phenotypes. However, genetic loci for other rare oral diseases remain to be studied due to their large variety and low incidence. Multi-omics sequencing technology provides a more powerful tool for identifying the pathogenic genes of dental and craniomaxillofacial hereditary diseases at genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic level. In addition, with the development of single-cell multi-omics technology, specific cell populations involved in the pathogenesis of dental and craniomaxillofacial hereditary disease can be more accurately identified at single-cell resolution.
