Clinical management of salivary gland disorders
Serves as a complete reference guide for the totality of salivary gland (SG) disease. Focusing on the clues available to the practitioner during the patient examination, it will completely review and update the available data concerning all manner of SG conditions. Looking beyond the perspectives of surgery, imaging, pathology, or sialendoscopy in diagnosis and therapy, this book will provide all professionals interested in the head and neck extensive and detailed diagnostic information about each SG entity.
Clinical Cases in Orofacial Pain
Individual cases cover temporomandibular joint disorders, masticatory muscle disorders, headache, neuropathic pain, dental pain, tooth wear, and dystonia. Following the popular Clinical Cases series style, cases are presented with associated academic commentary, including background information, diagnostic criteria and fundamental points that might influence the diagnosis, treatment planning or management of the case.
Burnt human remains : Recovery, analysis, and interpretation
Presents an in-depth multidisciplinary approach to the detection, recovery, analysis, and identification of thermally altered remains. Bridging the gap between research and practice, this invaluable one-stop reference provides detailed coverage of analytical techniques in forensic medicine and pathology, forensic anthropology, forensic odontology, and forensic chemistry and forensic biology.
Bell's oral and facial pain
Includes advanced understanding of the neurophysiology and central processing of pain and the resulting changes to diagnostic, classi cation, and treatment guidelines. To assist clinicians in the dif cult and often complicated task of managing patients suffering from oral and facial pain, this textbook provides documented information concerning pain and pain behavior so that one may better understand what pain is, how it behaves, and how it might best be managed; develops a useful classi cation of orofacial pain disorders; offers practical diagnostic criteria by which the different orofacial pain disorders can be identi ed on a clinical level; and suggests guidelines for the effective management of patients who suffer from pain in the region of the mouth and face.
Artificial intelligence for oral health care : Applications and future prospects
Offers a deeper understanding of the foundational concepts of AI, its practical applications in oral health, and the possibilities that lie ahead. From oral pathology to maxillofacial surgery, prosthodontics to orthodontics, and endodontics to dental education, it presents compelling, evidence-based insights into how AI is changing the landscape of dentistry.
Advancements and Innovations in OMFS, ENT, and Facial Plastic Surgery
Covers updated practices and cutting-edge innovations pertinent to advanced Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons, Otolaryngologists (Head and Neck Surgeons), and Facial Plastic Surgeons. Each chapter will review and update the reader on advancements in procedures and technologies in head and neck surgery.
Advances on testing and experimentation in civil engineering : Materials, structures and buildings
Presents the most recent advances on testing and experimentation in civil engineering, especially in the branches of materials, structures, and buildings, complementing the authors’ publication Advances on Testing and Experimentation in Civil Engineering - Geotechnics, Transportation, Hydraulics and Natural Resources. It includes advances in physical modelling, monitoring techniques, data acquisition and analysis, and provides an invaluable contribution to the installation of new civil engineering experimental facilities.
Clinical Neuroanatomy : A Neurobehavioral Approach
This book begins with a traditional review of the basic internal and external morphology, major nerve and fiber tracts, behavioral correlates, and clinical syndromes associated with spinal cord, brain stem, and cerebellum designed to reacquaint students and practicing clinicians with the functional anatomy of the subtentorial central nervous system. However, as the text was specifically geared to meet the needs of those practitioners whose primary interest is in what might be termed "higher order cognitive-behavioral function," the main focus of the text is on the brain itself. Borrowing heavily from a Lurian tradition, the central chapters reflect an attempt to offer more detailed, integrated, and, at times, theoretical models of cortical systems and their internal organization. Additional chapters highlight vascular anatomy and associated pathology, as well as neurochemical systems and their potential clinical relevance.
Anxiety in health behaviors and physical illness
While the links between physical illness and depression have been well-documented and analyzed, little has been made of the data relating physical illness to anxiety—until now. Anxiety in Health Behavior and Physical Illness explores complex relationships between medical and anxiety pathology on the theoretical, research, and practical fronts. Over forty experts examine reciprocal roles of anxiety and medical illness as causal or exacerbating factors in each other’s onset and development, describe forms of anxiety typical to major disease entities, discuss common health behaviors as they impact anxiety, recast anxiety disorders as chronic illness, and identify patients for whom new forms of treatment may be warranted.
