Contemporary Fixed Prosthodontics

Description:

Find everything you need to master tooth preparation, prostheses, and restorations! Contemporary Fixed Prosthodontics, 6th Edition provides a solid foundation in basic science as well as step-by-step guidelines to hundreds of fixed prosthodontic procedures. Using more than 3,500 high-quality drawings and photographs, this complete reference walks you through each step of patient care, from diagnosis and planning to prosthesis fabrication and follow-up care. Separate sections on planning and preparation, clinical procedures, and laboratory procedures make it easier to look up the information you need. This edition covers the latest advances in CAD/CAM technologies and adds new content on minimally invasive prosthodontic procedures through preventive, adhesive, and implant dentistry. From respected prosthodontics educators and clinicians Stephen Rosenstiel, Martin Land, and Robert Walter, this book includes an enhanced digital free with each new print purchase, featuring a fully searchable version of the entire text.

Features:

• Illustrated, full-color step-by-step procedures walk you through all the steps of treatment from the beginning to the final treatment result.
• Summary charts provide a quick, at-glance review of specific procedures (such as Class II inlay preparation and ceramic crown preparation), highlighting the indications, contraindications, advantages, disadvantages, preparation steps, recommended armamentarium, and criteria.
• Prosthodontic Diagnostic Index helps you determine the appropriate treatments for completely edentulous, partially edentulous, and dentate patients, using guidelines and illustrations from the American College of Prosthodontists.
• Text boxes accompany selected illustrations, presenting quick facts and tips relating to techniques or concepts.
• Study questions at the end of each chapter offer an opportunity to test your knowledge and comprehension.
• An enhanced digital is included with each new print purchase, featuring a fully searchable version of the entire text, images, and more!
