Plastics in Dentistry and Estrogenicity : A Guide to Safe Practice Paperback / softback
Edited by Theodore Eliades, George Eliades
Paperback / softback
Description
This book provides a timely and comprehensive review of our current knowledge of BPA release from dental polymers and the potential endocrinological consequences.
After a review of the history and evolution of the issue within the broader biomedical context, the estrogenicity of BPA is explained.
The basic chemistry of the polymers used in dentistry is then presented in a simplified and clinically relevant manner.
Key chapters in the book carefully evaluate the release of BPA from polycarbonate products and composite resins and the estrogenicity of these materials.
Currently available evidence on the potential estrogenic action of dental composities, sealants, and adhesives is presented, and means are suggested by which adverse health effects can be minimized.
The entire dental community will find this book to be an excellent source of information on the true risks posed by BPA, and an invaluable aid to safe practice.
