Periodontitis - A Useful Reference is a comprehensive book compiled by a team of experts with the objective of providing an overview of the basic pathology of ""periodontitis"" and its implication on oral health and general systemic health. Periodontitis has become a global health burden in recent days. It is noteworthy that oral health is being considered as the mirror of general health and the study of oral-systemic health connections has advanced among scientists, clinicians, and the public as well. We wish the array of chapters that highlights the importance and impact of periodontal health could be a useful guide for the community of public, students, and clinicians.

The currently available technical and technological solutions of visualization in dentistry are a number of possibilities in creating images useful both for dentists and technicians. To gain a three-dimensional image of a patient's face and profile to visualize changes in appearance after applying a specific therapeutic method in the field of prosthodontics or orthodontics is no longer a problem. The same applies to a very accurate scan of the area to be treated - the exact map of the working field, on the basis of which the implementation of even very difficult dental procedures can be easily planned. Equally available are three-dimensional images of the patient's skull. The book presents the newest means and capabilities of visualization in different fields of dentistry.

This open access book is the proceedings of the 14th International Symposium on Biomineralization (BIOMIN XIV) held in 2017 at Tsukuba. Over the past 45 years, biomineralization research has unveiled details of the characteristics of the nano-structure of various biominerals; the formation mechanism of this nano-structure, including the initial stage of crystallization; and the function of organic matrices in biominerals, and this knowledge has been applied to dental, medical, pharmaceutical, materials, agricultural and environmental sciences and paleontology. As such, biomineralization is an important interdisciplinary research area, and further advances are expected in both fundamental and applied research. .
