Implant Dentistry for Beginners
Implant dentistry for beginners encompasses the basics of dental implants, a revolutionary technique in restorative dentistry used to replace missing teeth. The process typically involves the surgical insertion of a titanium post into the jawbone, which acts as a root for the artificial tooth. Over time, this post integrates with the bone, providing a stable foundation for a crown, bridge, or denture. Beginners in implant dentistry must understand the importance of thorough patient evaluation, including assessing bone density and oral health, to ensure suitability for the procedure. They learn about the stages of implant surgery, post-operative care, and the nuances of creating natural-looking prosthetics. Emphasis is also placed on mastering the technical skills required for precise implant placement and understanding the latest advancements in materials and techniques. Additionally, managing patient expectations and post-surgical care, such as oral hygiene practices for implant longevity, forms an essential part of their training.

Diabetes and Renal Impairment : Let’s Understand the Link
Individuals with diabetes often develop kidney disease or damage over time. We refer to this kind of kidney disease as diabetic nephropathy. Nephrons in diabetics gradually thicken and get damaged over time. Urine starts to contain protein (albumin) due to nephron leaks. This damage may occur years before kidney disease symptoms appear. When type 2 diabetes develops slowly, kidney damage may already be present in some patients when they are first diagnosed.
Case Based Approach to Upper GI Bleed
Finding the source of the bleeding is essential for the effective management of upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, and if this is done, endoscopic treatment is frequently available. However, because of the bleeding's location or other technical factors, identifying it can be difficult. Consequently, it may be required to employ methods other than endoscopy, including CT angiography. A rare cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding, duodenal diverticula can be difficult to identify since they sometimes call for specialized endoscopic treatments, like side-viewing endoscope.This case covers the details of first instance of this uncommon syndrome being successfully managed using an upper GI endoscopy using a colonoscope, followed by intravascular coiling.
Hepatitis: Know the Facts
Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver, often caused by viral infections, toxins, or autoimmune diseases. The most common types are Hepatitis A, B, and C, each with different modes of transmission and severity. Hepatitis A is typically spread through contaminated food or water, while Hepatitis B and C are usually transmitted through blood or bodily fluids. Symptoms can include jaundice, fatigue, abdominal pain, and nausea. Chronic Hepatitis B and C can lead to serious complications such as liver cirrhosis or liver cancer. Vaccines are available for Hepatitis A and B, but there is no vaccine for Hepatitis C. Early detection and treatment are crucial for managing and preventing severe liver damage.
Approach to Benign Breast Diseases
The breasts are intricate structures made up of tissue, fat, and glands. Developing a breast lump, cyst, or tumor is a rather typical occurrence. We call this benign breast illness. Even though none of these breast disorders are deadly or malignant, they could raise your chance of getting breast cancer in the future. Even while the majority of breast diseases don't result in cancer, the idea is to get familiar with the feel and appearance of breasts to recognize changes even if the majority of breast diseases are not malignant.
