Description
"Implants in Dentistry" distills the fundamentals information from Block & Kent's classic text, "Endosseous Implants for Maxillofacial Reconstruction", into a resource for readers who have little or no prior experience in the field. It covers all aspects of dental implantation - from the basics of anatomy and medical management, wound healing, prosthetics, and surgery to advanced topics such as bone grafting and guided tissue regeneration, as well as the regulatory process and medicolegal ramifications of implant use. Readers will gain an appreciation for why and how basic wound healing principles can be used to facilitate the re-establishment of missing anatomy.
