Implant Site Development

With the desire for dental implant therapy ever escalating,clinicians are faced with the challenge of augmenting deficientnatural physiology to provide effective sites for implantation. Implant Site Development helps the clinician decide if,when, and how to create a ridge site amenable to implantation. Thispractical book offers solutions to many implant site preservationscenarios, discussing different treatment options, timing, avariety of materials and techniques, and their application to theclinical practice. With a unique integrated clinical approach, Implant Site Development covers a range of site developmenttechniques.

Highly illustrated, Implant Site Development presentsdiagrams and clinical photographs to aid with clinical judgment andwill prove useful for any dental professional involved in implanttherapy, from general practitioners to prosthodontists, butespecially surgeons. This literature–based, yet user–friendly,reference will be indispensable to the novice or veteranclinician.

Key Features:

Addresses implant site development and related treatmentplanning in a logical, practical and easy–to–digest manner Surveys the whole gamut of site development techniques Unique integrated clinical approach Presents a sound and thorough review of evidence
