Interface Oral Health Science 2011 - Proceedings of the 4th International Symposium for Interface Oral Health Science

Interface oral health science is founded on the concept that healthy oral function is maintained by biological and biomechanical harmony between three systems: oral tissues, parasitic oral microorganisms, and biomaterials. On that basis, dental caries, periodontal disease, and temporomandibular joint disorders may be regarded as interface disorders that result from a disruption in the intact interface of these systems. Interface oral health science encompasses the fields of dentistry and dental medicine, but also extends to general medicine, agriculture, biomaterial science, bioengineering, and pharmacology. This book is a compendium of the research presented at symposiums held in 2011 by the Tohoku University Graduate School of Dentistry and by The Forsyth Institute. This publication is intended to drive the progress of dental and craniofacial sciences, pointing the way for dental research for future generations.
