Contemporary Implant Dentistry

This comprehensive clinical reference book on dental implants deals with patient selection and treatment planning through technique, with all the popular commercial implant "systems", to long-term follow-up. Part one deals with medical and dental evaluation leading to classification of cases by measurement of jaw bone available for installation of implants. Basic science and treatment follow preparation. A set of appendices show the author's own classification system of cases in detail. Part two, on treatment, emphasizes the relationship between the general dentist, oral surgeon, prosthodontist and periodontist in installing the system.
