Description
In recent years, dental implants have become a more common alternative to conventionally placed dentures, bridges and crowns. This accessible,
well-illustrated introduction to the principles of implant dentistry provides readers coming into contact with implants for the first
time with a working knowledge of the various implant systems available. Thorough discussions are also included on patient assessment
and treatment planning, the use of implants in edentulous and partially edentulous patients and for single tooth restorations, as well
as possible problems and maintenance procedures.
Audience
Dental students, vocational trainee dentists (general practice residency in US)
