Review
"Any atlas of implantology is an ambitious project owing to the huge variations in implant techniques and fluidity of trends. The authors have indeed covered a huge amount of information looking at, in great detail, the background of implant development through to case planning and prosthetic techniques. This third edition looks to bring the text up to date from its original inception in 1992 and covers new sections on zygomatic implants and current implant morphology."

"The authors should be congratulated on a fine effort. It is worth more than a glance if one of your restorative colleagues has a copy, if only to update your knowledge on the subject."

Product Description
Oral implantology remains one of the fastest-growing, most dynamic fields within dentistry. This is due in large measure to the rapid development of safe, effective osseointegrable implant systems that offer patients a permanent, esthetic alternative to partial or full removable prosthetic devices. Its growth can also be attributable to the increased interest in this treatment modality by both specialists (prosthodontists, oral surgeons, periodontists) and general dentists alike. For the growing numbers ofaged patients, implants offer an excellent solution for loss of teeth and the ensuing treatment challenges.
ATLAS OF ORAL IMPLANTOLOGY serves as a complete instructional manual for highlighting step-by-step details for the most current techniques of implantation. Information is provided on how to choose patients, evaluate host sites, select implant types, place them step-by-step, observe them, diagnose incipient problems, institute remedial techniques, perform a wide variety of restorative modalities, and maintain and follow patients during the postoperative period. In addition to its 29 chapters, ATLAS OF ORAL IMPLANTOLOGY contains 13 appendices ranging from antibiotic prophylactic regimens to CAD-CAM computed tomography!
This edition of ATLAS OF ORAL IMPLANTOLOGY is significantly revised. It offers the latest clearly illustrated and carefully delineated diagnostic, surgical, and prosthetic techniques in a logical and simple-to-follow format. The reader can easily find logical and practical descriptions (and alternatives) to virtually any implant situation or problem presented.
