The chapters of Studies on Periodontal Disease comprise four parts. Part 1 provides basic sciences from the general to the particular. The findings of cell culture and animal models supply the mechanism between periodontal disease and oxidative stress. In part 2, human clinical studies are mainly addressed. The effects of periodontal therapy on circulating oxidative stress are also discussed. The relationships between periodontal disease and systemic diseases are examined in part 3. The involvement of oxidative stress and inflammation are discussed through in vivo and in vitro study results. Part 4 discusses future strategies, including the effects of antioxidants and nutrition on periodontal disease.This thorough examination of the relationship between oxidative stress and periodontal disease is essential reading for researchers in oxidative stress and periodontal clinicians, alike.

This is definetely a book for revising, not for studying at first place. But I find it very useful for this. The number of pages is 364, not 653 as written in the description. A lot of tables, algorithms and pictures. Printed well, delivered very fast.

Description

Complete Dentistry vs. “Usual and customary” Most dentists typically do not know what they do not know; so they go on practicing “usual and customary” dentistry without ever knowing how good their practices could be. This text is a politically incorrect “tell it like it is” exposure of why so many practices fall short of the satisfaction and rewards that predictably successful dentistry provides. A true clinicians manual, every chapter is based on long-term observation of thousands of patients using objective criteria for “complete” examinations, comprehensive treatment planning, patient communication and successful practice management for exceptional patient care. The contribution of practicing faculty members with experience in teaching thousands of dentists, laboratory technicians and staff members, makes the text an easily understood venue for fulfilling the stated goal of The Dawson Academy for Advanced Dental Study: We love to make good dentists even better.

I am a 52 year old physician now taking an MPH as a one-year break from clinical medicine. This is an edited book, so I can’t just pick on one set of authors…but I felt compelled to give my feedback. I have read 80% of this book, sometimes twice… I felt compelled to write a review because although the book is well written and has a nice layout–although there are many annoying “snippits” that direct attention away from the test–…I find the details of the text to be tedious, repetitive, and not clinically useful. Flowery descriptions of nothing are the rule (most doctors will know what I mean by this). What happened to medical physiology? It is conspicuously absent here. Points of emphasis are not made in bold print. This is academia in it’s full (gulp) glory… Graphs concerning breast feeding in Nambia and stuff like that are incomprehensible and far too prevalent. Citations make this like reading one of those “full of hot air” studies. The reader is PUNISHED! I am not even sure that after reading each detail, that I am any “better” as a physician. I would encourage the editor to perhaps take some of the subjective opinions, flowery exuberant descriptions of the obvious– and UNICEF/WHO advertisements out in favor of clear-cut medical “proven” facts so that the students understand what is going on with the material. Also, it emphasizes that “tobacco taxes are a positive” when I believe that it is proven that this has just been a money grab for governments at the EXPENSE of the poor… also, some of the opinions and studies were not extremely well thought out, though well-meaning. For example, evaluating nutritional deficits in third-world countries.. the book LOVES to say “in low income countries” which is annoying and leaves the reader with the guilt of living in a first-world country (but that is expected, isn’t it). .. let’s stick to the facts and not to some worthless yet well-meaning studies. Don’t get me wrong, there is some redeeming good in this book.. but spending hours in the library reading it is killing my time…not making me much better. Unfortunately, this book proves to me that many in public health just simply are not good scientists and they are chasing altruism and have a good heart, but jumping around and stamping your feet saying “feed the children… fix sub-Saharan Africa” is just not good science. We all know that these “poor countries” have rich people in them taking advantage of the third market doctors that come in..and bright health care professionals from these countries are moving to get more money because indigent medicine simply doesn’t pay.
