Dr. Horowitz,
I am a young dentist that attended my first AAID meeting this past week. I greatly enjoyed your lecture. I am going to apply many of the concepts you presented. I was wondering if you have advice on what text/resource would be best to have as a reference while I'm trying to determine what grafting materials to use and when. I left the week more confused because other lecturers seemed to state that membranes aren't needed (Chanavaz), or that calcium sulfate can be used without a membrane. I understand things are not so cut and dry, but I'd like a reference that'll help me sift through all the details. Nonethe less, your lecture left me with the best feeling of what to do and when and why. Thanks for your work.

No pain, no swelling, no problem. If Dr. Horowitz is happy, I'm happy.

Beyond brushing Easy ways to protect your teeth - and your health January 30, 2011 You know the drill: Brush at least twice a day with soft bristles, don't forget to floss, and visit your dentist regularly for cleanings and exams. Good oral hygiene not only keeps your smile pearly-white and gums in good shape, but it could help the rest of you stay healthy, too: Research shows cardiovascular disease, diabetes and osteoporosis, among other conditions, may be linked to oral health. More tips to protect your teeth, based on the latest research:
Eat salmon. Or peanut butter. Or any other food rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). New research shows people whose diets were rich in PUFAs, specifically DHA and EPA fatty acids, were up to 20% less likely to have periodontitis. Periodontitis is a common inflammatory condition in which the gum tissue pulls away from the teeth, allowing bacteria to build up and potentially lead to bone and tooth loss. Polyunsaturated fats have been shown to reduce inflammation.Drink green tea. It helps protect against heart disease and cancer. It boosts weight loss and lowers cholesterol. And according to research published in the Journal of Periodontology, it helps keep your mouth healthy. The study showed that for every cup of green tea participants drank, there was a decrease in indicators for gum disease.Chew sugarless gum. Doing so for about 20 minutes after a meal can help prevent tooth decay, the American Dental Association says. That's because the physical act of chewing gum increases the flow of saliva, which can help neutralize and wash away acids that are produced when food is broken down by bacteria in your mouth. Otherwise, the acids eat away at tooth enamel, resulting in decay.Skip midnight munching. Late-night eating does more than add inches to your waistline. It also can increase your chances of gum disease, tooth decay and tooth loss, according to two recent studies. Saliva flow dries up at night, which may be a reason. Saliva is important for removing food debris from your mouth. |
