Publisher's Synopsis
This second volume in the Prosthetic Rehabilitation series articulates a patient-centered approach to prosthodontic restoration. Placing a strong emphasis on the scientific rigor of clinical decision making, the authors present the principles central to constructing optimal prostheses for patients in various stages of edentulism. Every technical phase of rehabilitation is detailed, from clinical examination to use of a provisional prosthesis to fabrication of the definitive restoration to follow-up procedures. Expert guidance on increasing denture stability, conditioning the soft tissues, and selecting the right denture adhesive rounds out this highly practical book.
