Dental anatomy

Alveolar Ridge Resorption: Alveolar bone resorption is a normal physiologic response following teeth extraction. The causes of alveolar bone volume loss can occur before dental extraction due to periodontal disease, periapical pathology and trauma to the teeth and bone. (SchroppL et al.2003) (1, 2). Additionally, the traumatic removal of teeth can cause bone loss and must be prevented (1,3). Finally, the alveolar bone suffers atrophy after tooth extraction, which has been well documented (1, 4, 5). The bundle bone at the site obviously will lose its function and disappear (Botticelli et al. 2004, Arau ´jo&Lindhe 2005, Arau ´jo et al. 2008)(10,16).Thus, the healing process of post-extraction sites, including contour alterations caused by bone resorption and remodelling is essential for obtaining functional and esthetically satisfactory prosthetic reconstructions.(1,3) The resorption and remodeling of the alveolar ridge after tooth removal is a natural healing phenomenon, which is physiologically undesirable and possibly inevitable and can negatively impact…

It takes many years of school and hard work to become a neurosurgeon. Minimum requirements to get a job as a neurosurgeon include four years of undergraduate school, four years of medical school, and three to eight years of internships and residency (okcareerguide).

All medical professionals face the same initial challenge―school. While some medical professions require a minimum of a high school degree and a year of training, such as personal care aids, the majority of aspiring medical students must study for at least four years before training. Physicians, such as surgeons and anesthesiologists, must study at a medical school and go through residency, where one practices medicine upon supervision. Likewise, medical professionals must become board certified…

My interest for Medicine first developed as a child when I had Grommets put in my ears and my adenoids removed. To me, these experiences were exciting; particularly to have magic cream put on my hands which unknown to me back then, made the cannula insertion painless. I study Biology, Chemistry and Psychology at A-level, and each subject will individually benefit me in my pursuit of medicine. They all aid in teaching me the scientific skill sets that one needs, along with important information…

General Hospital rumors are circulating faster than anyone can keep up. The spoilers that have been revealed appear to be a day behind, losing time from all of the press conferences that have interrupted the initial airings.

Another prerequisite is shadowing a Physician’s Assistant, this allows the schools to see that you are very interested in becoming a PA and already…

While studying hard and doing all of the assignments may be sufficient to succeed at undergraduate college, successfully completing medicine requires a great deal. “Applicants and students will be judged not only on their scholastic achievement and abilities, but also on their intellectual, physical, emotional and behavioral capacities to meet the essential requirements of the school’s curriculum.” Today’s medical students are tomorrow’s physicians who will have the lives of many people one…
