Designed for practical use, this work consolidates recent knowledge in osseointegration. This easy-to-use manual is organized according to categories defined by location and extent of tooth loss. The advantages and disadvantages of each, and the possibilities for implant therapy, are given. Includes treatment goals, presurgical needs and considerations including position and number of implants; space limitations; ridge width; bone height; cantilevers, angulation and occlusion; implant placement; and aesthetic evaluation. Chapters on patient education and economy, and treatment planning, sequencing and procedures provide sample letters, forms, and flowsheets ready for use.
