Root Caries and Management

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Dental caries is an ancient disease that has been found in skulls from all over the world where the primitive man lived in isolated areas and the diet lacked refined and carbohydrate-rich food. Root caries is a lesion located on the root surface of a tooth, usually close to or below the gingival margin, and is the major cause of tooth loss in older adults, and tooth loss is the most significant oral health-related negative variable of quality of life for the elderly population who get their teeth extracted and replaced with removable prostheses. At present, root caries is becoming a new area of focused research in dentistry, as more people are living to an advanced age and retaining their natural teeth. With advanced age, there is more gingival recession, which leaves the root surface exposed to the oral environment and leads to an increase in the root caries rate. It is a preventable disease. This book deals with how to manage, prevent or mitigate this disease.

Autorenporträt

Ich bin Dr. Vidyasagar Goje und arbeite derzeit als Assistenzprofessor am Sri Sai College of Dental Surgery in Vikarabad. Ich habe meinen Abschluss an derselben Hochschule gemacht. Da ich mich sehr für den Bereich der Zahnheilkunde interessiere, habe ich damit begonnen, Informationen über unbekannte Fakten zum Zahnverlust, insbesondere bei älteren Menschen, zu sammeln und diese an einer Stelle in diesem Buch zusammengetragen.
