The use of minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) has grown rapidly over the last decade and remains the fastest growing area in spine surgery. Now in a revised and expanded second edition including 19 new chapters, this comprehensive textbook provides an updated presentation of the field of MISS, highlighting surgical techniques and clinical outcomes as well as providing a unique focus on how these techniques are applied for specific spinal conditions. Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery, Second Edition includes detailed discussions of enabling technologies, surgical techniques, approaches to specific diseases and conditions, a new section on out-patient/ambulatory spine surgery, and strategies to manage the unique risks and complications associated with MISS. Each chapter, whether revised or new, is formatted in a consistent manner, including bulleted key learning points as well as review questions, pearls and pitfalls, and generous illustrations and intra-operative photographs. Written and edited by thought leaders in the field, this user-friendly textbook will be an essential resource for orthopedic and neurosurgery trainees, as well as a valuable reference and review for spine surgeons and health care professionals who treat the spine.

Gender and Diversity in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, An Issue of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics of North America, E-Book

This book covers the application of emerging technologies, occurring after the 4th industrial revolution, in oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) and introduces a new era of personalized medicine in this discipline. It describes the manufacturing and data acquisition methods, in detail, including the advantages and disadvantages of each process. The workflow of using the emerging technologies in reconstructive treatments, orthognathic surgery, implant dentistry, robotic surgery and bio‐fabrication have been covered in separate chapters. Several related cases in conjunction with the workflow are presented and discussed as clinical examples of each, for practical discussion of the workflow and process trajectory. Each chapters provides introduction, definition, application and plausible pitfalls of employing these technologies in specific areas. Given the multiple materials and techniques, the logic behind selection of each in different fields of practice and thorough explanation of process provides surgeons with a background on how and why a certain approach is employed, and if application of emerging technologies would outdo traditional treatment processes. The importance of fabricating living tissues is discussed as one of the most recent progresses in the field. The bench-to-bedside transition, their clinical application, and their remarkable positive impact on oral and maxillofacial surgical procedures are covered. This book is arranged for oral and maxillofacial, and plastic surgeons and in-training-fellows in associated fields.

In this issue of Dental Clinics, guest editors Drs. Jack L. Ferracane, Luiz E. Bertassoni, and Carmem S. Pfeifer bring their considerable expertise to the topic of Dental Biomaterials. Dental biomaterials have received recent attention in terms of exhibiting excellent performance, as well as increased migration and proliferation of cells involved in the osseointegration of implants. This issue offers up-to-date, expert coverage of adhesives, cements, composites, ceramics, scaffold materials, and implants, as well as light curing and safety of dental materials. Contains 11 practice-oriented topics including dental adhesives: surface modifications of tooth structure for stable bonding; resin-based composites: materials for direct and indirect applications; new technologies for restorative dentistry; advances in ceramics for dental applications; cements and protocols for bonded dental ceramics; and more. Provides in-depth clinical reviews on dental biomaterials, offering actionable insights for clinical practice. Presents the latest information on this timely, focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors in the field. Authors synthesize and distill the latest research and practice guidelines to create clinically significant, topic-based reviews.

Oral tissue engineering involves the study of current approaches for in vitro regeneration of soft and hard tissues located into the oral cavity. In this context, recent approaches involves the use of innovative biomaterials to replace the lost or damaged human oral tissues. Recent discoveries in materials science and nanotechnology are drastically changing the traditional approach to dentistry by the design of innovative devices able more efficiently supporting the natural regeneration process. The objective of this book is to highlight current progress in tissue engineering for various dental hard/soft tissues including enamel, dentin, pulp, alveolar bone, periodontium, gum and oral mucosa, by emphasizing the role of materials and their specific applications.

This two-part issue of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics of North America is devoted to Dental Implants. Part II focuses on Computer Technology and is edited by Dr. Ole Jensen.
