DOWNLOAD EBOOKAbstract: In order to employ techniques of patient management effectively, the dental assistant must master skills in communication and psychology. Insights into patient behavior and motivation, and suggestions for improved patient interactions are presented in a manual and study guide for dental assistants. The direct influence of good nutrition and diet on dental health is also emphasized; dental assistants play an important role in encouraging good nutritional habits in their patients. Thus, the principles of preventive dentistry are often conveyed to patients via the dental auxiliary. Other topics include the epidemiology and etiology of dental disease; fluorides; and oral physiotherapy. All staff on the dental team should practice preventive dentistry and promote dental health education to their patients.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis textbook is exceptional in its coverage of modern theories on the patient-centered approach to communication, preventive dentistry, and dental anxiety. It provides the knowledge and tools required in order to implement a trauma-sensitive approach that will enhance the treatment experience for both the patient and the dental practitioner. General psychological aspects of dentistry and behavior management in patients who experience dental fear, anxiety, and pain are considered in detail. Extensive attention is devoted to the effective delivery of preventive care and dental treatment in a wide range of specific patient groups, including fearful and abused children and patients suffering from depression, personality disorders, psychosis, substance abuse disorders, and eating disorders. The importance of interdisciplinary cooperation and self-care in the dental clinic is also discussed. The book is an international collaborative effort between dentists and psychologists who draw on scientific research as well as their personal experiences in clinical practice. It is an excellent educational resource and will help readers to solve challenges in their own clinical settings.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAbstract: Nutrition knowledge and its practical application in prevention and control of dental problems are presented for the dental student or professional. Basic biochemical and metabolic aspects of nutrition are presented, generally, and specifically in relation to oral health. Excesses or deficiencies of micro- and macronutrients and their manifestations in clinical problems are emphasized. Patients' questions have been used to compile information for responding to requests about a prudent diet, the function of foods, health foods, food processing and additives, and cariogenicity of foods. Step-by-step procedures for nutrition counseling of patients cover prevention and control of dental caries, improvement of oral health, procedures that help recuperation following oral surgery, and assistance in coping with the oral problems of aging, such as osteoporosis, loss of taste, or xerostomia.
