    Description: "Prevention of dental and oral health. The collection of materials" Joyce Brennflek Shannon (English edition).



    Millions of children experience problems from untreated tooth decay, and many adults over 65 have lost all of their teeth. In addition, most adults have some gum disease. While researchers seek ways to re-mineralize teeth and disrupt tooth decay processes, prevention is still the best way to maintain oral health.



    Dental Care and Oral Health Sourcebook, 4th Edition, offers updated information about mouth and tooth care for effective hygiene, nutrition, and decay prevention in children and adults. It discusses orthodontic, endodontic, and periodontic procedures, and gives facts about oral diseases and disorders.

    The book is organized in the broad subject areas detailed below. Please see the Table of Contents for a more complete understanding of the comprehensive coverage offered in Dental Care and Oral Health Sourcebook, 4th Edition.

    Part I: Taking Care of Your Mouth and Teeth provides an overview of the mouth and dental structures, with information about general oral health.

    Part II: Visiting Your Dentist’s Office explains x-rays, fillings, sedation, and treatments for tooth pain; and describes types of dental restorations (amalgam and composite fillings, porcelain veneers, crowns), tooth extractions, and the possible choices if dentures are needed



    Part III: Dental Care for Infants and Children focuses on healthy primary teeth and includes information about fluoride treatments, sealants, and nutrition as well as childhood concerns such as teething, sports-related orofacial injuries, bruxism, and the impact of sugary drinks and snacks.

    Part IV: Orthodontic, Endodontic, Periodontic, and Orofacial Procedures offers details about braces, retainers, and treatments of malocclusion, along with information about root canals, periodontal (gum) disease treatment, dental implants, oral surgeries, and facial trauma and corrective jaw surgery.

    Part V: Oral Diseases and Disorders provides information about bad breath, burning mouth syndrome, cleft palate, jaw problems, mouth sores, oral cancer, thrush, and disorders of the tongue, taste, and those that cause dry mouth.

    Part VI: Health Conditions That Affect Oral Health describes conditions that cause—or result in—oral complications, including cancer treatment, celiac disease, diabetes, eating disorders, heart disease, immune system disorders, organ transplantation, osteoporosis, pregnancy, and the use of tobacco or illegal drugs.

    Part VII: Finding and Financing Oral Health in the United States reviews average dental expenses and private and public sources of coverage that assist in paying for dental care, including suggestions for finding low-cost dental care.
