Description
This colour atlas reflects the concept taught by the authors for more than 25 years, and includes new developments that have proven their clinical feasibility. The first part demonstrates the rehabilitation of an edentulous patient in step-by-step illustrations of the clinical procedure and presents alternatives to the basic technique. The second part presents different possibilities of overdenture construction from low-cost overdentures on some retained roots up to the sophisticated techniques for perio-overdentures. The third part draws attention to long-term care and recall for denture and overdenture wearers. For each procedure, the required materials and instrumentation are illustrated to help the dental auxiliary.
