Textbook of removable prosthodontics - the Scandinavian approach

Bogen er en unik og samlet præsentation af alle aspekter af emnet aftagelig protetik inklusive den tandtekniske del. En sådan komplet gennemgang af emnet har været savnet og meget efterspurgt i Skandinavien. Bogen kan betragtes som en bred grundbog, der kan benyttes både i selve tandlægeuddannelsen og på forskellige efteruddannelseskurser. Fagets traditioner og praksis ligger meget tæt på hinanden i hhv. Sverige, Danmark og Norge, og bogen er skrevet på engelsk af forfattere fra alle tre lande.

The aim of this book is to present the Scandinavian treatment philosophy of removable prosthodontics in which biology and function have priority over the more technical approach favoured by others. The Scandinavian treatment philosophy is largely based on periodontal and clinical prosthodontic research, which has demonstrated that the critical factor in tooth and abutment survival is establishing and maintaining good periodontal health by plaque control, not by trying to reduce or distribute widely mechanical loading. Textbook of Removable Prosthodontics covers the need for dental students to acquire adequate knowledge and clinical skills within this field.

Preparations for fixed prosthodontics

Bogen er en lærebog i faget protetik for tandlægestuderende i Danmark, Norge og Sverige. Den omhandler præparationer for faste proteserdækker og dækker et stort behov for en moderne lærebog baseret på skandinaviske principper. Teksten hviler på den klassiske præparationslære, men har fokus på de typer af præparationer, der i dag anses for mest gangbare, fx porcelænsfacader, kroner og broer i porcelæn. Bogen er rikt illustreret.

Fixed prosthodontics

Principles and Clinics

Written with the dental student in mind, this textbook presents a methodical and scientifically based approach to restorative dentistry using fixed prosthodontics. In addition to a comprehensive overview of the clinical concepts of fixed prosthodontics, the author supplies the interdisciplinary context for related basic sciences as well as the clinical fields of periodontics, orthodontics, operative dentistry, and implant dentistry. Once the scientific background is established, the text guides the reader, chapter by chapter, through the process of providing reliable treatment, and the accompanying illustrations depict common clinical situations and recommended treatment options to clarify the essential principles of fixed prosthodontics. By addressing the strategic, operational, and technical aspects of prosthetic dentistry, the author outlines the clinical steps of restorative dentistry and simplifies the complex concepts that students struggle with in the early phases of professional development.

Diagnosis and treatment in prosthodontics

2nd ed.

This book addresses the medical and surgical aspects of treating partially and completely edentulous patients and emphasizes the need to attend to the biologic, psychologic, and social dimensions of illness and care, particularly for patients who require resection and reconstruction or who have oral complications from radiation and chemotherapy. Like the first edition, this book presents a multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and treatment. New technologies and materials in immediate loading, ceramic materials, and three-dimensional imaging techniques allow more predictable and successful outcomes.

Dental Erosion

Diagnosis, risk assessment, prevention, treatment

This book provides a comprehensive overview of dental erosion, focusing in particular on its diagnosis, risk assessment, prevention, and treatment. The authors detail how to recognize dental erosion through the basic erosive wear examination; how to conduct a thorough risk assessment with a dietary questionnaire, health history, and measurement of salivary flow rate; how to plan appropriate restorative treatment based on the severity of the erosion, providing recommendations for specific instruments and materials to be used; and how to prevent and/or reduce further erosion after treatment through dietary alterations, dental hygiene measures, and even drug treatments or surgical measures. With ample case studies illustrating the many different presentations of dental erosion and with step-by-step restorative procedures detailing treatment, this book presents the information necessary to diagnose and treat dental erosion in clinical practice.

Handbook of cephalometric superimposition

Traditional procedures for cephalometric superimposition that are based on the use of periosteally located landmarks or their dependent substitutes are unstable over time. This renders interpretation of pretreatment-to-posttreatment changes unreliable. The structural method of superimposition is the only evidence-based method of superimposition, and it provides individualized, far-reaching insight into growth and treatment changes. The authors provide a critical, in-depth review of the history of cephalometric superimposition and the background and development of the structural method; demonstrate how to apply the structural method; and provide help and instruction for correct interpretation of the resulting superimpositions.

This book will help readers to produce superimpositions with maximal accuracy, based on the best available scientific biologic evidence.

Prosthetic rehabilitation

Diagnosis and preprosthetic care

This book centers on the process of diagnosis and clinical decision making prior to prosthetic rehabilitation, with equal consideration of patients'' systemic, psychologic, and functional needs as well as other disciplines of dentistry.

Surgical complications in oral implantology

Etiology, prevention, and management

This exceptional new book is designed as a self-instruction guide to the diagnosis, management, and prevention of surgery-related complications in implant dentistry. It functions in two ways: First it is a valuable resource for the implant surgeon seeking practical and succinct information about how to manage a complication in an emergency setting; and second, it can be read from cover to cover as a primer on implant surgery, from the initial consultation and treatment planning through the restorative phase of treatment. Besides addressing pre-, intra-, and postoperative implant surgery complications, the book also includes a comprehensive treatment-planning protocol that allows for the early detection of potential surgical complications and how to avoid them. Early detection of complications that are amenable to rescue therapies may reverse the fate of a failing implant or a bone-grafting procedure. Invaluable for the novice and experienced implant surgeon alike.

Immediate restorations with a reduced number of implants

Conceptual background and clinical results

In this book, the authors present the concept for their innovative implant treatment, in the SKY fast & fixed approach, and outline the method for placement of angulated implants in the posterior area to provide stable support for immediate restoration with a reduced number of implants, even in atrophied jaws. In addition to the clinical and technical foundations of the SKY fast & fixed approach, the authors present options for prosthetic restoration and case presentations demonstrate the outstanding clinical results that have been achieved to date.

Maxillofacial Rehabilitation

3rd ed.

Prosthodontic and surgical management of cancer-related, acquired, and congenital defects of the head and neck

The rehabilitation of patients with disabilities of the head and neck secondary to acquired and congenital defects continues to be a challenge. Advancing a truly multidisciplinary approach, this updated textbook provides insights into the latest developments in reconstructive surgery, maxillofacial prosthetics, and dental care. New chapters present information on digital technology and tissue engineering, and all chapters have undergone significant revision, reflecting advances in the use of implants and free vascularized flaps.

Long-term stability

In the specialty of orthodontics, treatment results depend on the clinician''s knowledge, manual dexterity, philosophy, and effort. This book highlights the lack of common scientific guidelines in orthodontic practice, advocating for the recognition and identification of such guidelines that work to place the teeth in positions that will produce the healthiest, most functional, most esthetic, and most stable results possible. With so many factors in fluencing long-term stability, this book consolidates the 20 principles of the Alexander Discipline outlined in volume one into six guidelines for approaching longterm stability in orthodontics, focusing on the periodontium, torque control, skeletal and transverse control, occlusion, and the soft tissue profile. Each guideline is presented with several case studies that follow from the treatment plan to the definitive result and that highlight long-term stability in 5- to 40-year posttreatment records. A must-have for the practicing orthodontist.

Sinus Floor Elevation Procedures

The ITI Treatment Guide series, a compendium of evidence-based implant therapy techniques used in daily practice, provides a comprehensive overview of various therapeutic options. Using an illustrated step-by-step approach, renowned clinicians demonstrate how to manage different clinical situations with an emphasis on sound diagnostics, evidence-based treatment concepts, and predictable treatment outcomes.

The fifth volume of the ITI Treatment Guide series presents the materials and techniques associated with sinus augmentation procedures. The volume opens with a discussion of the preoperative assessment of the posterior maxilla, including a detailed description of the anatomy and radiologic examination. Different treatment options are then presented, along with guidelines for choosing the appropriate technique based on thorough risk evaluation and the relative complexity of each option. Various procedures are demonstrated with comprehensive patient case studies, and detailed illustrations serve to clarify potential ambiguities in protocol and technique. The text is completed with a section on intraoperative and postoperative complications to avert the most common pitfalls in clinical practice.
