Mange forældre synes, det er svært at komme i mål med tandbørstningen. Det vil Carina Løvstad råde bod på. Hver dag deler hun viden og gode råd i sit job som tandplejer og via platformen SMÅ BISSER, og nu har hun samlet det hele i en bog, der skal hjælpe forældre med at passe godt på tænderne hos de 0-5-årige.’SMÅ BISSER – Glade tænder giver glade børn’ rummer al den viden småbørnsforældre har brug for sammen med konkrete råd og redskaber, som Carina Løvstad bruger i sin hverdag – og på sine egne børn. Leg og læring er i fokus, når hun foreslår nye børste-stillinger, børstesange og på et mere overordnet plan fortæller, hvordan tandbørstning finder en naturlig plads i børnefamiliens travle hverdag.Bogen er tænkt som en håndbog, der kan læses fra start til slut eller bruges som opslagsværk. Målet er at fjerne tvivlen, så forældre ikke længere skal spørge sig selv, om de børster rigtigt, grundigt nok – eller om de giver for hurtigt op. Carina Løvstad har både erfaring fra arbejde i børne- og ungdomstandplejen samt privat tandpleje. I 2016 startede hun platformen SMÅ BISSER, hvor hun rådgiver om forebyggende tandpleje og tilbyder foredrag og kurser til forældre. Hun har desuden bidraget til en række magasiner bl.a. Helse, Alt.dk og Danske Tandplejeres fagblad.

This textbook is based on the curricula for dental students in the Nordic countries, and the authors teach the subject at three universities in Denmark, Norway and Sweden. Although primarily for undergraduates, the book may also appeal to Ph.D. students and general practitioners. In addition, dental assistants and trainees may find it a useful source of reference. The contents are based on general microbiology and immunology. Oral microbiology is given particular attention, with examples relevant to oral infectious diseases.Each chapter opens with a relatively short pre-reading section, followed by a fact box containing most of the relevant basic definitions concerning the particular chapter. The body of the text is supplemented with more fact boxes and the essentials of each section are summarised in main points. It is the authors’ intention that each chapter should be read as a self contained unit. This has resulted in deliberate repetition and cross-reference within and between chapters.Bogen er en fælles nordisk lærebog i mikrobiologi og immunologi for tandlægestuderende, og teksten er sammensat så bogen passer til undervisningen i både Norge, Danmark og Sverige.

This book focuses on recent advances in dental gold alloys and gold nanoparticles (GNPs) for biomedical applications. Dental gold alloys combine several highly desirable mechanical properties, such as high strength, ductility, and elasticity, with an extremely robust chemical stability in the mouth. Moreover, astonishing progress has been made in the use of GNPs as novel gold biomaterials that provide a multifunctional platform for cellular imaging, biosensing, and targeted drug delivery in tumour immunotherapy and photothermal therapy.Beginning with a comprehensive overview of the development and use of dental gold alloys, the book addresses the materials properties that are crucial for dental applications, focusing on aspects such as microstructure, chemical and mechanical stability, ageing, biocompatibility, and colour retention. The book then shifts focus to the use of GNPs in dental applications, delving into different techniques of GNP synthesis for specifically tailoring the size, shape, and stability of GNPs in biological media. In addition to these factors, it addresses how their exposure route, surface chemistry, as well as how the steric effects of their coating impact biodistribution and determine the level of GNP toxicity in the human body. Featuring topical literature reviews alongside up-to-date published experimental results, this book offers an attractive resource for practicing scientists and engineers working in the field of gold-based biomaterials.

This book focuses on the clear and simplified clinical techniques for microscopic restoration dentistry.

Richly illustrated, this book provides an indispensable source of knowledge to all specialists and trainees entrusted with the care of patients suffering from tongue lesions.

The book offers a thorough description of rhinoplasty techniques for patients from the Mediterranean area. Noses come in different shapes and colors, depending on the various biotypes of the different geographic regions. This represents a topical issue for rhinoplasty surgeons, since different nasal morphologies imply different anatomic conditions. Moreover, beauty ideal varies from one region to the other, and those differences need to be taken into consideration. Based on these premises, the ethnic rhinoplasty is becoming more and more important among facial plastic surgeons. In order to broaden the understanding of anatomo-functional and cultural or cosmetic aspects specific to the Mediterranean nasal biotype, the book collects and discusses the experiences of surgeons operating on patients from the various regions of the Mediterranean area. Mediterranean Rhinoplasty represents a valuable resource not only for surgeons who are already experts in facial plastic surgery, but also for young otorhinolaryngologists, plastic surgeons and maxillofacial surgeons.
