The Oral Healthcare community, including clinical professionals and industry, acknowledges the shared responsibility to deliver products and interventions that improve oral health in a more sustainable manner. To deliver this, the community is working in alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Key to establishing this collaborative stakeholder consensus is a deep contextual understanding of the challenge. This is achieved through a comprehensive account of the levels of awareness of the environmental impacts, the challenges to resolve these impacts together with the drivers and opportunities to promote sustainable practices. This report concludes with a strategic action framework that makes specific recommendations and identifies best practice to achieve these goals. The promotion of excellent oral healthcare and the development of a circular economy are core to this strategy. Additionally, it is also important to recognise the opportunities to collaborate across the sector, and throughout supply chains, to develop and promote sustainable practices to achieve meaningful and measurable environmental outcomes in the sector. In this context, the FDI World Dental Federation convened the development of this volume, Consensus on Environmentally Sustainable Oral Healthcare: A Joint Stakeholder Statement. This consensus statement brings together a global coalition of stakeholders, representing all aspects of industry, health professionals, experts, legislative authorities and governments. The statement uses a truly collaborative, multi-stakeholder approach to identify the major challenges facing oral healthcare, the complex drivers that underpin current behaviours and practices, and the best opportunities to improve and deliver sustainable oral healthcare for people and the planet. Concluding with an impactful and robust strategic action plan that crosses all boundaries, the statement identifies a series of actions and recommendations for best practice that address the sustainability issues facing the whole sector.

This book represents an innovative approach to the assessment and diagnosis of both common and relatively uncommon oral diseases. It introduces the reader to adopt a systematic, analytical approach to gather clinical information and understand the underlying pathological processes to arrive at an accurate diagnosis to help efficient management of diseases in the oral and maxillofacial region. The book covers pulp and periodontal diseases, temporomandibular disorders, granulomatous disorders and salivary gland disorders. Odontogenic and non-odontogenic cysts, fibro-cemento osseous lesions, oral ulcerations, infections, tumours, reactive lesions, and oral manifestations of autoimmune and haematological disorders too are presented. High-resolution clinical radiographic and histopathological images complement the text. Additional illustrations, flow charts, and a simplified diagnostic algorithm facilitate understanding the intricate diagnostic process. Self-assessment questions in each chapter will stimulate readers’ interest. The book focuses on problem-based and case-based learning. The correlations elaborated between clinical scenarios and their pathological basis will provide both the students and practitioners with the information required to master and unravel the complexities of the diagnosis and management of oral diseases. .

This book, designed to meet the needs of clinicians and now in an extensively revised second edition, clearly explains the rationale and technique for the rehabilitation of fully edentulous patients utilizing traditional graftless concepts as well as zygomatic implant strategies when posterior support cannot be achieved by the former means. Considerations relevant to treatment planning and the biomechanics of immediate loading and zygomatic implants are first discussed. The techniques for placement of traditional tilted and zygomatic implants and for immediate loading of a full arch restoration are then described step by step. Detailed information and guidance are also provided on the different materials available for full arch restorations, laboratory aspects of the definitive restoration, maintenance of restorations, and management of prosthetic and surgical complications. The book concludes with a helpful series of clinical cases. Graftless Solutions for the Edentulous Patient is designed particularly for clinicians with experience in placing and restoring dental implants. .
