Inflammatory response to bacterial biofilm at or below the gingival margin results in plaque-induced gingivitis. In other words, an inflammatory infiltrate consisting of, but not limited to, polymorphonuclear leukocytes, lymphocytes, erythrocytes and histiocytes accumulates in the underlying lamina propria. Page and Schroeder presented the classic gingival morpho-histopathologic features in response to this plaque biofilm etiology.

Un dispositif d'ancrage temporaire, ou DAT, est un appareil d'appoint placé spécifiquement pour fournir un ancrage orthodontique et qui est retiré après l'application de forces biomécaniques.1 Les DAT peuvent être classés en fonction de leur caractéristique principale, à savoir une "vis" ou une "plaque".2 Les termes utilisés dans la littérature ou par les conférenciers internationaux pour désigner les DAT comprennent les mini-implants, les minis-vis, les micro-implants, les miniplaques, les onplates, les vis d'ancrage miniplaques et bien d'autres.1 Bien qu'il n'y ait pas de...

Dental tourism is an important segment of the growing health tourism industry. Patients generate relevant tourism revenues for the destination country beyond the direct income of the dental clinics. This book illustrates the history of dental tourism, its development globally and elaborates dental tourism in the diverse subcontinent- India. The first part of the book traces the development of dental tourism, objectives and functioning of the sector arriving at the conclusion that the treatment element still dominates the tourism experience. The question therefore arises whether a more...

Eine temporäre Verankerungsvorrichtung (Temporary Anchorage Device, TAD) ist ein Hilfsmittel, das speziell zur kieferorthopädischen Verankerung eingesetzt wird und nach der Anwendung biomechanischer Kräfte entfernt wird.1 TADs können anhand ihres Hauptmerkmals, entweder einer "Schraube" oder einer "Platte", weiter kategorisiert werden.2 Zu den in der Literatur oder von internationalen Referenten verwendeten Begriffen für TADs gehören Mini-Implantate, Minischrauben, Mikro-Implantate, Miniplatten, Onplates, Miniplate-Ankerschrauben und viele mehr.1 Obwohl es keinen allgemeinen Konsens...

Evaluating oropharyngeal airway volume in patients with Class II dental relationships with extraction vs non-extraction orthodontic treatment. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the oropharyngeal volume does not decrease as a result of premolar extractions and orthodontic treatment. Cone-beam CT's were obtained for twenty-seven orthodontic patients before and after treatment. Nine patients were treated with four premolar extractions, and eighteen treated non-extraction. Total oropharyngeal airway volume (TV) and minimum area of constriction (MAC) were measured using...
