Periodontology
Periodontology or periodontics (from Greek περί peri "around"; and ὀδούς odous "tooth", genitive ὀδόντος odontos) is the specialty of dentistry that studies supporting structures of teeth, as well as diseases and conditions that affect them. The supporting tissues are known as the periodontium, which includes the gingiva (gums), alveolar bone, cementum, and the periodontal ligament. A person who practices this specialty is known as a periodontist.
An EU study worked to determine the role of atmospheric aerosols in climate processes. Satellite data show the distribution of atmospheric particle sizes, facilitating constant monitoring, issue of warnings, and better understanding of the dynamics.
