Understanding Partial Denture Design provides a step-by-step, highly illustrated guide to this difficult area of dentistry. This new book covers the design process, identification and explanation of the role of the denture and the way in which components are selected to achieve successful and safe function, providing an invaluable student aid.
This book, featuring contributions from some of the foremost experts in Europe and the United States, is designed to draw together existing knowledge of the epidemiology of oral disease and the incidence of edentulousness in an aging population. It examines the expectations held by this increasingly affluent and sophisticated marketplace for prosthodontic treatment, not only functionally but also aesthetically and psychologically. As the cost of more sophisticated techniques continues to rise, the authors also address the economic and ethical implications of different treatment options. Spanish version also available, ISBN: 84-8174-186-8
In spite of improvements in oral health, there will always be a significant number of people who lose all their teeth. Furthermore, as people are living longer, complete denture work has become more challenging and managing the transition from a pre-edentulous to an edentulous condition has become more critical. The fourth edition of this established textbook for dental undergraduates and postgraduates has been completely updated to reflect these changes. More emphasis has been placed on care of the elderly and how to achieve better communication between clinicians and dental technicians. More details of clinical techniques have been included, with a new section on the self assessment of clinical work. The text has been completely revised to take into account the results of research over the last ten years.
Divided into three parts: Patient assessment, Preparation of the mouth and Prosthetic treatment, this clinical guide provides a thorough approach to the assessment, planning and provision of removable partial dentures. Completely redesigned and revised this new edition of a well respected textbook is an essential reference point for any clinician involved in the provision of removable partial dentures. Taken in conjunction with the companion volume by the same authors, A Clinical Guide to Partial Denture Design, the book serves to guide the reader through every aspect of partial dentures. It does this in a practical way covering all aspects of the subject, from the initial examination and history through to the review appointment after fitting the finished prosthesis.
