Description
Prosthetic treatment of patients with missing teeth is a vitally important area of practice for dental practitioners, and consequently
for all dental students as well. Increasingly complex cases presented by more people keeping some or all teeth into old age, as well
as the expanding range of treatment alternatives available, has created a greater demand for fixed prostheses or bridges, removable partial
dentures, and prostheses supported by dental implants. All three of these options are now covered in entirety in this comprehensive guide,
making it easy for students to acquire treatment planning skills needed for dealing with real patients, beginning with a discussion of
tooth loss as the presenting problem and guiding the reader through the available alternatives.
Contents
Information gathering. What do we do with the information - decision making. Fixed prosthodontic options. Considerations for removable prostheses. Implant options. Case histories
