The goal of this manual is to share information that can be of value to the practicing dentist, especially the periodontist. Most of the concepts presented in this manual were taught to me when I was a student of Dr. Henry M. Goldman, Dr. D Walter Cohen, Dr. Morton Amsterdam, and Dr. Leonard Abrams of the universities of Pennsylvania and Boston graduate dental schools; visionaries of their times. I learned these concepts in 1961 to 1963 and have practiced them for the fifty-six years I was a practicing periodontist. Today's direction in periodontal field is toward soft tissue grafting and implants. The art of saving teeth seems to be minimized, so I would like to revitalize an alternate treatment course using occlusal control to help retain teeth.

Ultrasound in Liquid and Solid Metals focuses on the effect of intensive ultrasound on metals, including the analysis of the development of cavitation and acoustic flows in melts, mechanism of metals' spraying and crystallization, the formation of dislocation structure in crystals, diffusion, phase transformation, and plastic deformation. Physical fundamentals of intensive ultrasound effects are covered, and detailed discussions are presented on the engineering principles of equipment and material design for the practical use of ultrasound in the refining of melts, crystallization of ingots and molds, pulverization, plating, pressure working of metals, surface strengthening, and other processes.
