Deep Caries Management-Recent Concepts
Most of the restorative dentists still practice complete carious tissue removal to hard dentin, relying on hardness as the most important criterion for excavation. Only a few dentists chose partial caries removal and a high percentage of them think that cariogenic microorganisms must be removed or caries would progress. It can be concluded that the new knowledge and concepts about caries lesions and the more conservative approach to deep carious lesions have not yet been incorporated by most of the restorative dentists into their usual clinical practice. Although dental professionals have plenty access to scientific knowledge, this knowledge is not being translated into daily clinical practice.Partial caries excavation has a high success rate to treat deep carious lesions in permanent teeth which indicates that the retention of carious dentin does not interfere with pulp vitality.It is impossible to achieve sterile cavities but clinical observations have proven that enclosing bacteria underneath a restoration should not give clinical complications. However, more research is necessary to evaluate the effect of microorganisms and their toxins on the pulp.

Immunotherapy in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Immunotherapy has emerged as a promising treatment modality for oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), especially in advanced and recurrent cases where conventional therapies offer limited survival benefits. By harnessing the body's immune system, immunotherapeutic approaches such as immune checkpoint inhibitors-particularly anti-PD-1 agents like nivolumab and pembrolizumab-have shown improved overall survival and quality of life in select OSCC patients, as demonstrated in landmark trials like KEYNOTE-048 and CheckMate 141. Other strategies, including cancer vaccines, adoptive cell therapy, cytokine therapy, and oncolytic viruses, are under investigation but have yet to achieve widespread clinical use. Despite these advances, challenges such as low response rates, immune-related adverse events, tumor heterogeneity, and resistance mechanisms limit the efficacy of immunotherapy. Biomarkers like PD-L1 expression, tumor mutational burden, and immune gene signatures are being explored to guide patient selection and predict response. Combination therapies with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or other immunomodulators are being developed to enhance outcomes.
Color in Esthetic Dentistry
Selection of the proper shade and color matching of natural dentition continues to be one of the most perplexing and frustrating problems in dentistry. Colour matching can be likened to a gigantic jigsaw puzzle in which each piece must be properly oriented and positioned to achieve the desired result. Colour matching and shade selection of teeth is a blending of art and science. This process requires knowledge of the dimensions of colour as well as the clinical experience in an environment that optimizes the selection process. Inadequate technology to aid shade selection and shade duplication has rendered this part of dentistry more of an art than science. Unlike science, art form is subordinate to the individual abilities of the dentist that influence the predictability and reproducibility of the finished restoration. This skill cannot be thoroughly mastered in the absence of scientific knowledge, nor can it be fully grasped by merely memorizing facts about colour. Together, knowledge and experience provide rewarding solutions to this challenging aspect of dentistry. Thus the dentist, as well as the artist, should be educated in colour to be successful in working with colour.

3-D Printing in Maxillofacial Silicone Prosthesis
3D printing has revolutionized the field of maxillofacial prosthetics by enabling precise, personalized, and efficient fabrication of silicone facial prostheses. Traditional methods, which are time-consuming and technique-sensitive, are increasingly being replaced by digital workflows involving 3D scanning, computer-aided design (CAD), and additive manufacturing. These technologies allow for accurate replication of facial anatomy, better fit, and enhanced aesthetic outcomes. Silicone, the material of choice due to its biocompatibility and lifelike appearance, can be molded into highly customized prostheses using 3D-printed molds or even directly printed in advanced setups. This approach reduces human error, improves reproducibility, and shortens production time, offering significant benefits to both clinicians and patients. As the technology evolves, integration with color-matching systems and bioactive materials may further enhance the realism and functionality of maxillofacial prostheses.
Polysomnography a Gold Standard in Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard diagnostic tool for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a sleep disorder marked by repeated airway obstruction during sleep. PSG is a comprehensive overnight study that records multiple physiological parameters, including brain waves, eye movements, muscle activity, heart rate, respiratory effort, airflow, and oxygen saturation. This data helps identify apneas and hypopneas and calculate the Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI), which determines the severity of OSA. PSG not only confirms the diagnosis but also assesses sleep architecture and detects other coexisting sleep disorders. While highly accurate, PSG can be expensive and may cause discomfort due to multiple sensors. Despite this, its detailed analysis makes it essential for appropriate diagnosis and treatment planning, especially in patients with complex symptoms or comorbid conditions.

Restorative Materials in Paediatric Dentistry
Decisions for when to restore carious lesions should include at least clinical criteria of visual detection of enamel cavitation, visual identification of shadowing of the enamel, and radiographic recognition of progression of lesions.Oral health professionals need to make wise decisions about the type of restorative material they choose to best manage their patients with childhood caries. Therefore, it is necessary to select proper restorative material for restoration. This textbook throws light on evidence based use of best possible restorative materials in paediatric dentistry in various types of dental caries.
Nanotechnology in Prosthodontics
Nanotechnology, derived from the Greek word "nano" meaning "dwarf," involves manipulating matter at the atomic and molecular level, typically within the range of 1-100 nanometers. This transformative field was formally named by Dr. Nori Taniguchi in 1974 and has since evolved to include the creation and use of nanoscale structures, devices, and systems. In dentistry, nanotechnology has significantly advanced the field by offering improved material properties, enhanced treatment techniques, and novel therapeutic options-collectively shaping the discipline now known as nanodentistry.The application of nanotechnology in dentistry began with the conceptual introduction of nanomedicine by Robert A. Freitas. Nano dentistry refers to the use of nanomaterials and nanorobots for diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of oral diseases. Nanomaterials are especially beneficial due to their small size, high surface energy, and a large proportion of surface atoms, resulting in superior mechanical, chemical, and biological properties.
The Resorptive Signal
Cytokines are highly important peptide mediators which are involved in cell signalling and communication. Proinflammatory cytokines like TNF-α, IL-1, and IL-6 contribute to bone loss by stimulating osteoclastogenesis and increasing bone resorption. These cytokines activate signaling pathways that accelerate osteoclast development and activity, which leads to enhanced bone loss. This book compiles pertinent publications which demonstrate the role of cytokines in periodontal diseases in order to assess the role of pro-inflammatory interleukins in alveolar bone resorption and that increased alveolar bone loss was positively related with elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines. The results indicate that increased levels of inflammatory cytokines have a role in the destruction of alveolar bone.
Oral Health & General Health
At every stage of life, oral and general health are vital to all living beings. In addition to providing sustenance for the body, a healthy oral cavity promotes social connection, self-esteem, and feelings of wellbeing. By communicating general health issues, the oral cavity acts as a window to the rest of the body. Overall health and illness are impacted by dental disorders; when the immune system is weakened, oral cavity microorganisms can lead to infections in other body areas. There are four main ways that oral health and overall health are related. There is a strong correlation between major chronic diseases and poor dental health. There is a strong correlation between major chronic diseases and poor dental health. Disability results from poor oral health. Major diseases and oral health problems have similar risk factors, and Oral health concerns can be brought on by or made worse by general health issues.
Various Techniques for Sinus-Lift Procedures
The sinus lift procedure, also known as sinus augmentation, is a surgical technique commonly used in dental implantology to increase the amount of bone in the posterior maxilla (upper jaw), specifically in the region of the premolars and molars. This is often necessary when bone height is insufficient due to sinus pneumatization or alveolar bone loss, making it challenging to place dental implants securely. Sinus lift procedures have evolved significantly since their introduction, and various techniques have been developed to address different anatomical and clinical conditions. These techniques aim to elevate the Schneiderian membrane (lining of the maxillary sinus) and facilitate bone grafting in the sinus floor, thereby creating sufficient bone volume for dental implant placement. Here are the main techniques for sinus lift:1. Lateral Window Technique (Direct Sinus Lift),2.Osteotome Technique (Indirect Sinus Lift) 3. Balloon-Assisted Sinus Lift 4.Hydraulic Sinus Lift 5.Crestal Approach Using Specialized Kits. Each technique has its own indications, advantages, and limitations. The choice of method depends on several factors, including: Residual alveolar bone height.

Soft Tissue Management Around Dental Implant
A thin biotype is predisposed to mucosal recession, peri-implant crestal bone loss, and compromised implant stability. Preimplant interventions aim to enhance gingival thickness, thereby improving soft tissue resilience and long-term prognosis. Autogenous soft tissue grafts, biomaterials, and growth factors have been explored to modify the gingival phenotype before implant placement. This book evaluates current evidence on preimplant augmentation techniques for managing thin gingival biotype, focusing on their efficacy, stability, and clinical implications in implant dentistry.Managing a thin gingival biotype before implant placement is critical for long-term implant success. Various surgical and non-surgical techniques are available, with connective tissue grafts being the most predictable.
Gutta percha
Gutta-percha has been the most popularly used semi solid material for obturating the root canal system. Its acceptance as a dental material runs for more than a century. In contrast to rubber, which is an elastic material, gutta-percha is non-elastic. It becomes plastic when heated but retains it shape when cooled. The differences between the two materials arise from their different chemical compositions. Gutta-percha demonstrates minimal toxicity, minimal tissue irritability and is the least allergenic material available when retained within the root canal system when used as obturating material.
Tooth Under the Lens
Ground sections are ultra-thin slices of hard tissues such as teeth and bones that are meticulously prepared to study their detailed internal structure under a microscope. These sections are essential in various fields like histology (the study of tissue architecture), forensic odontology (identifying individuals based on dental evidence), and dental education (teaching students the microscopic anatomy of teeth).Tooth ground sectioning is considered an invaluable technique for studying dental anatomy, especially for visualizing the relationship between enamel, dentin, pulp chamber, and surrounding cementum. It has the added advantage of being a non-chemical and non-destructive method, thus preserving the tooth's natural architecture. For instance, in educational settings, ground sections help students observe the intricate patterns of enamel prisms or sclerotic dentin in aging teeth.This book aims to comprehensively explore the apparatus required, the techniques employed, and the recent advancements in the preparation and analysis of tooth ground sections.
Microbial Allies
The main cause of periodontal diseases, which are chronic inflammatory illnesses that impact the tissues that support teeth, is pathogenic microorganisms found in dental plaque. These conditions include periodontitis, which can lead to tooth loss, and gingivitis, which is a minor inflammation of the gums. Traditionally, antibiotics, antiseptics, and mechanical debridement (scaling and root planing) are used in management. These techniques do have certain drawbacks, though, such as side effects, growing antibiotic resistance, and insufficient pathogen clearance. Probiotics, which are described as live microorganisms that, when given in sufficient quantities, help the host's health, have become a promising adjuvant therapy in periodontal care in recent years. Probiotics are a new, safe, and useful supplement for treating periodontal disorders. They provide a comprehensive approach to oral health by lowering inflammation, decreasing the growth of infections, and reestablishing microbial equilibrium. Evidence currently available supports the use of probiotics in periodontal therapy protocols.
Biomechanics of Aligners
Esthetics has always been the concern in the treatment options of patients and introduction of Clear Aligner was a major breakthrough in the journey. This book emphasizes on the most important aspect of Clear Aligner Therapy that is the Biomechanics of Aligners. Aligners are the current most preferred treatment option in Orthodontics and understanding the basic biomechanics is the key to successful treatment. The book helps in keeping up to the knowledge of the current trends in digital orthodontics and delivering an functional and esthetic treatment option to patients.
Pro- Inflammatory Markers as a Risk Factor in Chronic Periodontitis
Chronic Periodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease influenced by both microbial and host-related factors. Among the most significant host-derived contributors are Pro-inflammatory markers such as interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and Macrophage Inflammatory Protein(MIP-1α). These biomarkers play a critical role in mediating the inflammatory response to periodontal pathogens, leading to the destruction of connective tissue and alveolar bone. Elevated levels of these markers in gingival crevicular fluid, saliva, or serum have been consistently associated with increased disease severity and progression. Their presence reflects an exaggerated host response, making them valuable indicators of active periodontal destruction. As such, pro-inflammatory markers are not only involved in the pathogenesis of chronic periodontitis but they also serve as important risk factors for its onset and advancement.
Potentially Malignant Oral Disorders
Potentially Malignant Oral Disorders (PMODS) represent a group of conditions of the oral mucosa that carry an increased risk of transformation into malignancy, most commonly oral squamous cell carcinoma. These lesions, including leukoplakia, erythroplakia, oral lichen planus, oral submucous fibrosis, and actinic cheilitis, often exhibit clinical and histopathological features that serve as early indicators of carcinogenic potential. Early detection and intervention are critical, as the progression to malignancy can be mitigated with appropriate clinical surveillance and management. This abstract provides an overview of the aetiology, risk factors, diagnostic approaches, and current therapeutic strategies associated with PMODs. Emphasis is placed on the role of biopsy and histopathological grading of epithelial dysplasia, as well as lifestyle modifications, such as tobacco and alcohol cessation, which are pivotal in reducing disease progression. A multidisciplinary approach, involving dental professionals, pathologists, and oncologists, is essential for optimal patient outcomes.
