The common idea that edentulism can always be solved with implants is questioned in this book given that the most recent literature highlights the higher risk of implant prosthodontics than traditional conventional toothborne prosthodontics. This book represents a procedural guide to the fabrication of full veneer crowns with vertical margin design. The preparation of the natural tooth as a prosthetic pillar is certainly a “traditional” procedure that is still one of the most common activities that dentists perform today and the so-called “vertical” preparation is given full credit in this book.
This notebook includes drawings of the anatomical structures, most frequent ailments and some of the most commonly used surgical techniques in dogs and cats. Its purpose is to facilitate communication between vets and their clients, since it will enable them to explain graphically what is happening to the pet, where, and the procedure for the possible resolution of the problem.
This book offers essential information about how to obtain samples for routine clinical and pathological investigations veterinarians habitually follow in pig farms. In addition, a complete and easy-to-perform necropsy procedure is shown. Picture galleries illustrate these procedures in a very easy way to follow. The guide also contains a set of pictures representing the main pathologies veterinarians can find in their practice. The guide is very visual and literature is reduced in order to facilitate the use of the book. This design, together with the book format and binding makes this guide very easy to use in practice by veterinarians and farm workers.
Twenty per cent of visits to the vet may be due to otitis and, although in general they do not represent a serious condition for the animal, they may become very insidious processes if they are not treated suitably. This work presents a selection of clinical cases to help vets to establish the proper guidelines for treatment, management and control.
The extraction of impacted dental elements is often referred to by maxillofacial surgeons. However, it can be handled as routinely as any other type of extraction. Piezoelectric surgery of impacted teeth, which involves reproducible procedures using a step-by-step approach in all types of cases, also allows dentists who approach the extraction of impacted elements less frequently to carefully prepare for the procedure and perform it, thereby minimizing possible post-surgical issues for the patient, such as biological risks. Using the most innovative techniques, including the application of ultrasound in oral surgery and piezoelectric surgery, the author provides an indispensable tool to train and update dentists who intend to perform all types of extractions.

En los países industrializados la salmonelosis está considerada como una de las infecciones bacterianas con mayor prevalencia entre las transmitidas al hombre por alimentos contaminados. Aunque en los últimos años en la Unión Europea se ha observado un descenso de la incidencia de la salmonelosis asociado principalmente a la reducción del serotipo Enteritidis y gracias al éxito de los programas de control de la salmonelosis aviar, la incidencia de S. Typhimurium ha ido en aumento. El cerdo es considerado un importante reservorio de este serotipo y la segunda fuente más importante de salmonelosis en humanos en Europa. Esta obra trata en profundidad diversos aspectos relacionados con la epidemiología y el control de la salmonelosis porcina.
