Odontoiatria

This book/DVD set, the legacy of a gifted dentist and lecturer, demonstrates the diverse treatment options available and the impressive outcomes that can be achieved with the skillful use of the direct resin composite technique. The book shows how highly esthetic direct resin composite restorations can be created in the anterior dentition using a minimally invasive approach. Step-by-step procedures for completing treatment in a single session are detailed in text and full-color photographs for various clinical situations. In addition, the presentation of complex clinical cases provides the dental practitioner with insights into the potential modern uses of resin composite for the buildup of anterior teeth, the closure of approximal gaps and black triangles, changes in tooth position and shape, and directly constructed, fiber-reinforced fixed dental prostheses. The accompanying DVD contains video footage of clinical procedures described in the book to enhance the reader's ability to achieve similar treatment results.

Now in a long awaited second edition, this groundbreaking atlas of osteosynthesis in craniomaxillofacial and oral surgery has been fully updated to reflect new techniques, applications, instruments, and materials. Illustrated in detailed, highly instructive full-color drawings, the book covers key advances in craniomaxillofacial and oral surgery, including the use of resorbable plates and screws, modern techniques of bone distraction, and the advanced treatment of trauma and congenital deformities. Complete with the relevant anatomy and biomechanics, physiology of bone repair and fracture healing, and the management of possible complications, the Atlas of Craniomaxillofacial Osteosynthesis: Microplates, Miniplates, and Screws is a true standard in the field. Highlights: * Includes six entirely new chapters on lingual hematoma, innovative treatment approaches of condylar neck fractures, the application of resorbable plates and screws and the material-specific techniques, and alveolar, mandibular, and maxillary bone distraction * Features thorough updates on orthognathic, craniofacial, and preprosthetic surgery * Offers proven treatment approaches by international experts who have applied the principles of osteosynthesis in a wide range of procedures * Presents more than 350 outstanding full-color drawings, 70 of them new to this edition, visualizing the relevant anatomy and surgical techniques The second edition of this outstanding atlas is highly recommended as a how-to guide and surgical reference for all practitioners and trainees who deal with the challenges of craniomaxillofacial and oral surgery, particularly maxillofacial, oral, and plastic surgeons, as well as neurosurgeons and otolaryngologists.
