Fundamentals of Implant Dentistry is a basic guide to foundational knowledge and skills and their application in clinical practice. More comprehensive than a procedural atlas and more accessible than a specialist reference, this text is an indispensable tool for dental students and clinicians beginning work with dental implants.
Fundamentals of Implant Dentistry provides a concise yet comprehensive look at the basic background and science of implantology and includes practical, evidence-based instruction on common procedures such as single implant crowns, bridges and overdentures. Well-illustrated with clear line drawings and clinical photos, the book serves as the perfect introduction to this exciting area of dentistry.
