If it's not bad enough having to wear false teeth or dentures, it gets even worse when the false teeth or dentures that you do have, are loose and you are struggling to use them. Scientific research shows that loose dentures have a significant effect on a person's general well-being and a happy State of Mind. You don't even need to wear dentures to understand this fact.

Your teeth vary in shape and size depending on their position within your mouth. These differences allow the teeth to do many different jobs. Teeth help us to chew and digest food. They help us to talk, and to pronounce different sounds clearly. Finally, teeth help to give our face its shape. A healthy smile can be a great asset and because this is so important, it makes sense to give your teeth the best care possible.

Not many kids start off enjoying brushing their teeth, and if they come through wonky, toothbrushing never really gets more fun. Wonky teeth are harder to keep clean, and teeth that aren’t clean are far more susceptible to dental decay and gum disease, both of which lead, eventually, to tooth loss.However, one thing that puts people with wonky teeth off getting them straightened is feeling self-conscious about their braces.
Nobody wants crooked or misaligned teeth as they not only look ugly but can also make cleaning teeth difficult. Luckily patients today have orthodontic options to choose between - clear braces (Invisalign) and traditional braces.
Dental veneers can transform your smile from dull and grey to white and bright. But they are not for everyone. Here we will look at just what dental veneers are, who is a good candidate for dental veneers and just how to take care of your veneers.

Study: The Future of VR, AR and Self-Driving CarsLinkedIn
We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether they’re using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating – and in many cases, surprising.
This SlideShare explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology – and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If you’re marketing a tech brand – or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience – then these are insights you won’t want to miss.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Are you curious about what’s new in cervical cancer research or unsure what the findings mean? Join Dr. Emily Ko, a gynecologic oncologist at Penn Medicine, to learn about the latest updates from the Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) 2024 Annual Meeting on Women’s Cancer. Dr. Ko will discuss what the research presented at the conference means for you and answer your questions about the new developments.
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
1. Bonding and White Fillings
Bonding is a popular method to enhance the aesthetics of your
smile. Bonding can be used to correct cracks or gaps in teeth, as
a filling after a cavity has been removed, or to cover up stains or
discolored teeth.
A composite resin is used on the affected tooth or teeth. It is
molded and sculpted over an adhesive gel that is placed on the
tooth. After the resin has been applied an, LED light is used to
harden the resin, which is then polished to give you a fresh, new
smile.
Bonding is an obvious improvement over unsightly silver
amalgam fillings. With the advancements in dental technology,
bonding usually lasts for over 10 years. It is a safe, affordable,
and attractive solution for many dental problems.
2. Bridges
Dental bridges are a great way to replace missing teeth. Your
existing teeth are used to literally create a bridge to cross the
area where your tooth is missing. Bridges are made from gold,
metal, alloys, or porcelain to ensure that they are strong and
durable.
The process of creating a bridge begins by creating abutments
out of your existing teeth where the bridge will be attached. The
existing teeth are recon toured to provide a base for the bridge.
After the abutments have been created, a mold is taken of the
area which is sent to a dental lab. The lab is able to use the mold
to create a bridge that will fit properly and feel as close to your
natural teeth as possible. The bridge consists of two crowns on
either end to place on the abutments and a optic, which is the
new tooth that replaces your missing tooth.
We will fit you with a temporary bridge while we wait for the
lab to craft your permanent bridge. This will protect the
abutments and the exposed gum areas and look more appealing
than having a missing tooth. When the permanent bridge has
been created, you will have a follow up visit to set the bridge. It
will be placed on the abutments and the dentist will then use an
adhesive to make sure that the bridge is set.
The bridge may take a little while to get used to, but after a few
days it should feel like you have your own teeth back again.
3. You should eat soft foods for the first few days after having your
bridge placed. After the initial phase, you will be able to eat
whatever you want with no issues.
If you are missing a tooth you should strongly consider having it
replaced. Besides the aesthetic disadvantage of missing a tooth,
it could also cause structural changes to your mouth and jaw, as
well as making it difficult to eat or speak properly. Set up an
appointment today to restore your smile.
Crowns
Over time our teeth begin to weaken and become more
susceptible to problems such as decay, cracks, discoloration and
others. If you feel your smile isn’t what it once was, crowns can
help you recover your smile. If your dentist notices that a tooth
is decayed or seems weakened/cracked a crown may be
4. necessary to make sure that there are no additional problems
with the tooth. In cases like this a filling or bonding will not be
sufficient.
Crowns can be made from porcelain, porcelain fused to metal, or
a full gold crown. To maintain a natural look and feel a
porcelain finished crown is best, as it can be matched to the
shade of your other teeth. This will allow it to blend in and
appear just like one of your natural teeth.
The process of installing a crown takes 2-3 visits to the dentist.
On the first visit the tooth will be reshaped by filing down the
enamel so that the crown can be placed over it. You will be
given a local anesthetic before this part of the procedure so that
you do not experience any discomfort. Once the tooth has been
reshaped, a mold will be taken of that tooth and the surrounding
teeth. This mold will be sent to a dental lab so that your new
crown can be made so that it fits in the spot created for it and
looks the same relative to the surrounding teeth. Before leaving,
your dentist will fit you with a temporary crown until your
permanent crown is ready.
The crown takes about 2-3 weeks to be returned to your dentist.
At this time you will have another appointment to place and fit
the permanent crown. You will again have a local anesthetic to
numb the area and the tooth will be placed using a cement to
ensure the tooth sets in place. When you look in the mirror, you
will see your old smile back. Crowns are durable and will
usually last about 10-15 years. You should care for it as you
5. would any of your other teeth with regular brushing and
flossing. Call us today if you would like to learn more about
how crowns can help restore your smile.
Extractions
Wisdom teeth extractions are a fairly common procedure.
Wisdom teeth often cause problems as they are trying to
protrude through the gums. When a wisdom tooth is impacted, it
means the tooth is coming in at an angle and not straight through
the gum line. This can cause pain, the tooth can come in
unevenly, or the tooth may only emerge partially.
When a wisdom tooth only emerges partially a flap of skin,
called an operculum, may form over the tooth. This can make
the tooth hard to clean, and pieces of food may be caught under
the skin. This makes it easy for an infection, called pericoronitis,
to develop. It will usually go away on its own, but it causes
swelling and pain in the area.
Impacted teeth and wisdom teeth that can potentially cause
problems, like infections, need to be removed. Extractions can
range from a single tooth, to removing all four wisdom teeth at
once. Based on the preference of the doctor and/or the patient, a
local anesthetic could be used to numb the areas where the teeth
6. will be extracted. Others will prefer to go under a general
anesthetic so that they will be sedated during the procedure.
The gum tissue around the wisdom tooth is cut open to reveal
the tooth. The tooth is loosened by gripping it tightly and
wiggling it back and forth until it can be lifted out of the gums.
Sometimes a tooth may be impacted so tightly that it cannot be
simply lifted out of the gums. In cases like this the tooth will be
broken up into pieces first before being removed. Depending on
the incision and extraction site, sutures may be needed to close
the area. Soluble sutures are the best option, which will dissolve
on their own.
After the surgery you will need to rest. You need to be driven
home by a friend or family member because of the anesthesia.
You can expect for the extraction site to bleed for a little while
after the surgery. Gauze will be applied at the completion of the
surgery, and you will need to change it when it becomes soaked.
If bleeding continues for longer than 24 hours you should call
your dentist. Rest when you return home, but do not lie flat. This
could prolong the bleeding. Prop your head up on a pillow when
lying down. Your dentist will prescribe you pain medication, so
if you become sore take as directed. You can also use an ice
pack for the pain. Your dentist might also provide you with a
cleaning solution to clean the extraction site.
You will be limited to soft foods for a few days after your
surgery. Some recommended foods are:
7. •
Gelatin
•
Pudding
•
Yogurt
•
Mashed Potatoes
•
Ice Cream
•
Thin Soups...and other food you can eat without chewing.
When drinking, make sure you do not use a straw. The sucking
motion can loosen your sutures and slow the clotting process.
The same goes for smoking. If you have prolonged pain,
bleeding, irritation, or don't feel that the extraction site is healing
properly call your dentist for a follow up.
8. Dentures
Dentures are a replacement for missing teeth that can be
removed and put back into your mouth as you please.
Depending on each individual patient case, they may receive full
or partial dentures. Full dentures are used when all of the natural
teeth are removed from the mouth and replaced with a full set of
dentures. There are two types of full dentures.
Conventional Full Dentures - This is when all the teeth are
removed and the tissue is given time to heal before the dentures
are placed. It could take a few months for the gum tissue to heal
completely, and during this time you will be without teeth.
Immediate Full Dentures - Prior to having your teeth removed,
your dentist takes measurements and has dentures fitted for your
mouth. After removing the teeth, the dentures are immediately
placed in your mouth. The benefit is that you do not have to
9. spend any time without teeth. You will, however, need to have a
follow up visit to refit your dentures because the jaw bone will
slightly change shape as your mouth heels. The dentures will
need to be tightened after the jaw bone has healed.
Partial dentures are another option when not all of your teeth
need to be removed. This is similar to a bridge, but it is not a
permanent fixture in your mouth.
Your dentures may take some time to get used to. The flesh
colored base of the dentures is placed over your gums. Some
people say that it feels bulky or that they don't have enough
room for their tongue. Other times the dentures might feel loose.
These feelings will affect the way you eat and talk for a little
while. Over time, your mouth becomes trained to eat and speak
with your dentures and they begin to feel more and more like
your natural teeth. They may never feel perfectly comfortable,
but it is much better than the alternative of not having teeth.
Even though dentures are not real teeth, you should care for
them like they are. You should brush them to remove plaque and
food particles before removing your dentures. After they have
been removed you should place them directly into room
temperature water or a denture cleaning solution. Never use hot
water because it could warp the dentures. Your dentures are
delicate, so make sure you are careful when handling them so
you don't drop them. Also, never try to adjust your dentures
yourself. You could ruin them, so you should always seek
assistance from your dentist if they feel uncomfortable or loose.

recommended specialists. Please let us know if you have any
questions.
11. Extraction Site Preservation
When removing a tooth it is important to consider what will be
done with the empty space after that tooth is removed. Wisdom
teeth are in the back of the mouth, so that site will heal on its
own with no complications. If it is necessary to remove another
tooth, plans must be made. If a tooth is removed and nothing is
done with the extraction site, the jaw bone will degenerate and
change shape during healing and can cause your teeth to shift.
This can create problems in your bite and affect your ability to
speak and chew.
If you want to fill the space with a dental implant, a sturdy jaw
bone is necessary to install the implant. If you opt for a dental
bridge, the bridge must be molded and placed before the teeth
shift.
Your dentist is always open to a conversation on what you
would like to do with your extraction site before removing a
tooth. They will be able to make a recommendation and layout a
treatment plan. Make sure to schedule follow up appointments to
properly care for your extraction site.
12. Inlays and Onlays
Inlays and onlays are often referred to as partial crowns. They
use the existing tooth as a base and fit the inlay or onlay onto the
tooth. This is done to strengthen the tooth, restore its shape, and
prevent further damage. An inlay is done when there is no
damage to the cusps of the tooth and the inlay can be placed
right on the tooth. An inlay is used when the damage is a little
more extensive.
The decayed area of the tooth is first removed during the
procedure. A mold of the tooth is then taken and sent to a dental
lab. They create a restoration made from porcelain, gold, or a
composite resin. The restoration takes about 2-3 weeks to make,
so a temporary inlay or onlay will be placed on the tooth for that
time. During your next visit the inlay or onlay will be placed
into your mouth and set with cement. Your tooth will look
natural and you or anyone else won't be able to tell the
difference.
13. TMJ
TMJ is

you pain
the acronym for temporomandibular joint, which
your lower jaw (the mandible) to your skull at the
bone. This joint controls many jaw functions, like
If the chewing muscles or the joint itself are causing
you may have temporamandibular disorder, or TMD.
14. TMD can be caused by stress, continual clenching of the jaw
muscles, or teeth grinding.
Some of the symptoms of TMD are:
Pain when opening or closing mouth
Trouble chewing
Jaw becoming stuck open or shut
Headaches or ear pain
Clicking or popping sounds when opening your mouth
Teeth Grinding
Many of these symptoms can often be associated with other
health problems, so only a medical professional can tell you if it
is due to TMD. Teeth grinding is an especially problematic
symptom because it can lead to further problems. Prolonged
teeth grinding, or bruxism, can cause enamel to wear off teeth
and expose dentin. This material is softer than enamel and more
susceptible to decay. Sensitivity to hot and cold food or drink
may also develop from excessive teeth grinding.
If you suspect you may have TMD come in for a consultation.
We can help diagnose you and provide relief for your
symptoms. Pain relievers and hot/cold compresses are short term
methods to provide relief for pain symptoms. A night guard can
be used to help prevent or lessen the effects of teeth grinding at
night. This can lead to a more permanent solution. In very
severe cases of TMD surgery may be required, but behavioral
15. treatments to change the way you use your jaw muscles are
usually enough to provide relief.
Night Guards
Many people are afflicted with bruxism, or teeth grinding. Some
people may do this consciously during the day, but it is a larger
problem at night while you are asleep. Grinding your teeth can
damage enamel, wear down teeth, because jaw pain, or irritate
your gums. The noise from teeth grinding can also disturb your
spouse's sleep if loud enough.
If you grind your teeth you should consider a night guard. The
night guard, which is very similar to a mouth guard worn by
athletes, provides a barrier between your top and bottom teeth
while you sleep. All night guards are custom fitted for comfort
16. and to allow for proper breathing. Your dentist will take an
impression of your teeth and have the night guard created by a
dental lab. Night guards are very durable and can be used for up
to 10 years.
Protective Mouth Guards
Mouth guards are an essential piece of equipment in contact
sports. They should be worn by athletes of all ages who
participate in sports such as:
Football
Hockey
Lacrosse
Wrestling
Basketball
Baseball/Softball
Soccer
…any sport where contact is a possibility.
Wearing a mouth guard helps prevent against structural damage
to your teeth and jaw and also helps prevent injuries such as
lacerations to your cheeks, tongue, and lips. Mouth guards have
also been shown to help decrease the risk of concussions.
17. Mouth guards are available in most any sporting goods store, but
you should be careful when purchasing a mouth guard. Mouth
guards like this do not offer the best level of protection. They
are also usually ill-fitting and uncomfortable.
For the highest level of comfort and protection, you should visit
your dentist for a custom mouth guard fitting. A custom mouth
guard is created specifically for the optimal protection of YOUR
mouth. It is created with thin plastic that is hardened to protect
your teeth. The thinness of the custom mouth guard allows for
easy breathing and also allows for easy communication
(especially important for you star quarterbacks calling out the
signals).
See your dentist today for a custom mouth guard to protect your
teeth and ensure that you maintain the highest level of
performance on the field, court, or rink.
Post-Op Instructions
It is important to follow instructions after you have oral surgery
to ensure proper healing and to avoid complications. As a rule of
thumb, you should always wait two hours after surgery before
eating to let the anesthesia wear off. Trying to eat before this
could result in soft tissue damage because you are not able to
feel all of your mouth. The instructions found below are
guidelines. After your surgery the doctor or dental assistant will
give you full instructions on how to properly recover from
surgery.
18. Root Canal Therapy
You can expect soreness after a root canal procedure for a few
days. You should avoid chewing on the side of your mouth
where the procedure was performed so you do not irritate the
area and also to ensure that the temporary restorative material
properly sets. You will also need to take an antibiotic to treat
any remaining infection in your tooth. If you notice an
increasing amount of pain or tenderness, a reaction to the
medication, or the loss of the temporary restoration (filling) call
your dentist immediately.
Crowns and Bridges
Before you receive your permanent crown/bridge you will first
receive a temporary restoration. This is not as sturdy as the
permanent version, so you should be careful when cleaning and
eating. You should brush the area gently and should not pull up
on the tooth when flossing because it could become dislodged.
The same goes for eating. You should avoid sticky or chewy
foods while you have the temporary in.
There may be some sensitivity and irritation after the temporary
or permanent is placed. This is normal and will subside after the
soft tissue heals. A warm salt water rinse will help, and you can
also take Advil or Tylenol if the pain does not go away.
When the permanent crown or bridge is placed it may feel a
little awkward for a few days. Your mouth needs to adjust to the
new tooth, and it should feel like one of your natural tooth in
19. less than a week. If your bite feels abnormal in any way, you
should let your dentist know. Caring for your bridge or crown is
just like caring for your own teeth. You should brush and floss
regularly.
White Fillings (Bonding)
After the anesthesia wears off your teeth will likely be sensitive.
You should avoid hot and cold food or drink for the next few
days. After that initial period, your treated teeth will feel as good
as new. Continue your normal hygiene plan to ensure that your
fillings last for a long time.
Scaling and Root Planing
After this procedure your gums will probably be slightly sore
and irritated for a few days. You should rinse your mouth with
warm salt water (1 tsp. salt/8 oz. water) 2-3 times a day. This
will relieve the pain and cleanse the area. Brushing and flossing
should be continued right after the procedure, but you should
brush gently so that you do not further irritate the area. If you
experience any swelling or stiffness in the area you can place a
cold compress on the area and take some pain relieving
medicine. Avoid any hard or chewy foods for 2-3 days after the
surgery to ensure the area heals correctly. If you continue to
experience pain or swelling after a few days contacts your
dentist.
20. Veneers
Before you receive your permanent veneer you will first receive
a temporary restoration. This is not as sturdy as the permanent
version, so you should be careful when cleaning and eating. You
should brush the area gently and should not pull up on the tooth
when flossing because it could become dislodged. The same
goes for eating. You should avoid sticky or chewy foods while
you have the temporary in.
There may be some sensitivity and irritation after the temporary
or permanent is placed. This is normal and will subside after the
soft tissue heals. A warm salt water rinse will help, and you can
also take Advil or Tylenol if the pain does not go away.
When the veneer is placed it may feel a little awkward for a few
days. Your mouth needs to adjust to the new tooth, and it should
feel like one of your natural tooth in less than a week. If your
bite feels abnormal in any way, you should let your dentist
know. When brushing and flossing you should pay close
attention to the area between the veneer and the tooth at the gum
line.
Extractions
After the surgery you will need to rest. You need to be driven
home by a friend or family member because of the anesthesia.
You can expect for the extraction site to bleed for a little while
after the surgery. Gauze will be applied at the completion of the
surgery, and you will need to change it when it becomes soaked.
21. If bleeding continues for longer than 24 hours you should call
your dentist. Rest when you return home, but do not lie flat. This
could prolong the bleeding. Prop your head up on a pillow when
lying down. Your dentist will prescribe you pain medication, so
if you become sore take as directed. You can also use an ice
pack for the pain. Your dentist might also provide you with a
cleaning solution to clean the extraction site.
You will be limited to soft foods for a few days after your
surgery. Some recommended foods are:

When drinking, make sure you do not use a straw. The sucking
motion can loosen your sutures and slow the clotting process.
The same goes for smoking. If you have prolonged pain,
bleeding, irritation, or don't feel that the extraction site is healing
properly call your dentist for a follow up.
