Book SynopsisCovering the functional and esthetic needs of edentulous patients, this title helps you provide complete dentures, with and without dental implant support. It addresses both the behavioral and clinical aspects of diagnosis and treatment and covers treatment modalities including osseointegration, overdentures, and more.Trade Review"This new edition is divided into six parts; The patient; Treatment options; The materials used; Clinical protocols for diverse treatment scenarios; Clinical protocol specific to implant-supported prosthodontics management; and, finally, Additional considerations in the management of edentulous patients...It examines the 'appropriatech' concept of providing cost-effective, appropriate care describes techniques that make complete dentures accessible to those who do not have access to alternative care, including discussions of alternative care, including discussions of alternative protocols, such as Complete Dentures in Four Clinical Sessions (CD4).
