If partial dentures are worth making, then they are worth making well. This book presents a review of demographic changes in the partially dentate population, the increasing availability of alternative treatments, and evidence for the long-term effectiveness of partial dentures. In addition, it provides evidence-based guidelines that practitioners can apply to the design, preparation, completion, and maintenance of removable partial dentures in their everyday clinical practice.
Increased knowledge of treatment outcomes combined with better techniques, new materials, and innovative technology have led to improved diagnosis and management of dental traumatic injuries. Emphasizing a minimally invasive approach to treating dental traumas in which procedures are aimed at assisting the natural healing process of the dental hard tissues, pulp, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone; where possible, invasive restoration, pulpectomy, and extraction are avoided. Key points related to examination and diagnosis, treatment planning, and treatment procedures are described for specific types of dental trauma, and long-term follow-up is encouraged. New cases and updated protocols elucidate the most recent approaches to effective treatment of dental traumatic injuries, and the use of dental cone beam computed tomography, which has dramatically improved diagnosis for traumatized teeth, is emphasized throughout.
