Saving Dental Implants

Comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to all aspects of dental implant maintenance, based on treatment outcomes Saving Dental Implants offers a complete reference to all factors in long-term success in dental implants. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, each chapter is written by leading experts in the field. The book examines treatment outcomes, provides advice on how to manage implants for long-term success, and supports clinicians in avoiding and managing peri-implant complications. The text presents global treatment approaches and concepts—established philosophies in practice for the last 20 years—and also looks to possible future management strategies. Designed to help clinicians apply the concepts in practice, the text also covers the pros and cons of implant therapy and the specifics of pre-implant diagnostics, treatment methodology, prosthetic concepts, and further maintenance visits. Featuring hundreds of high-quality color photographs to support the text, Saving Dental Implants covers topics such as: The anatomic features of peri-implant tissues, including clinical and histological information, and an evaluation of the studies using different implant systems and prosthetic concepts Diagnostic tools and procedures to make the proper diagnosis of peri-implant conditions, and microbiota of the peri-implant tissues and diagnostic opportunities for bacterial diagnosis Nanoparticles found in the peri-implant tissues from the implant placement, their loading, and their impact on peri-implant diseases The significance, applications, and limitations of bone grafting techniques to optimize the shape of the alveolar ridge New technologies for better treatment of peri-implant complications Examining the most current information and research on diagnosing, preventing, and managing peri-implant complications, Saving Dental Implants is a must-have practical reference for dental practitioners, specialists, and students who wish to help patients reach the best functional and esthetic outcomes.
