This book focuses on the role of chemical plaque control as an adjunct to mechanical methods in maintaining oral hygiene and preventing periodontal diseases. Dental plaque, being the primary etiological factor, necessitates effective control strategies beyond routine mechanical measures.The study highlights various chemical agents such as chlorhexidine, essential oils, and other antimicrobial formulations, emphasizing their mechanisms of action, efficacy, and clinical applications. It also discusses the advantages, limitations, and side effects associated with their use.The findings reinforce that while mechanical plaque control remains fundamental, the adjunctive use of chemical agents significantly enhances plaque reduction and gingival health. Thus, an integrated approach combining both methods is essential for optimal periodontal care.

Clinical Guide to Principles of Fiber-Reinforced Composites in Dentistry
<p>Traditional dental materials such as metals and ceramics have a number of disadvantages such as cost and the significant damage caused in grinding to make space for such reconstructions. Fiber-reinforced composites (FRCs) are a novel group of dental materials characterized by fibrous fillers that are being increasingly used in place of traditional prosthodontic materials. They allow fabrication of minimally invasive, lightweight, durable and biocompatible restorations. This book will provide clinicians and students with theoretical and clinical guidelines to use the FRCs for dental applications.</p> <p>The book begins with an introduction to the fundamentals of FRCs in dentistry. Further chapters cover the treatment possibilities, fabrication and application procedures of FRCs, followed by information on care and maintenance.</p>
