Description
Summary:This book is primarily meant to help readers gain an insight into the otherwise complex processes that regular the periodontium in health and disease. Most modern diagnostic techniques and the newer therapeutic approaches utilize information that we have obtained from the study of various intracellular events. The knowledge of molecular biology is essential for students and clinicians alike for not only a deeper appreciation of Periodontics but also integrating future treatment strategies into practice. This book provides a stepping stone in this direction. TABLE OF CONTENTS: 1 Cells of the Periodontium, 2. Organization of the Matrix, 3. Cell Cycle, 4. Cell Cytoskeleton, 5. Cell Adhesions, 6.
