Practical Techniques in Periodontics and Implant Dentistry

This clinical quick reference covers essential techniques in periodontics and implant dentistry, using concise, technique-based chapters that let practitioners find and apply key information quickly during patient care. It opens with the anatomy and physiology of the periodontium, including gingival tissue, embryonic development and soft tissue physiology, before moving into wound healing, the pathology of periodontal disease, and oral medicine and pathology.

Later chapters address patient examination and initial therapy, surgical anatomy and local anesthesia, and suturing techniques, followed by osseous surgery, clinical crown lengthening and the principles of implant dentistry. The text is supported throughout by radiographs, histological images, clinical photographs and line drawings that illustrate the procedures described.

Written for general practitioners, periodontists and implant dentists, the book also suits dental students with an interest in periodontics. This edition is supplied as an EPUB file of 141.9 MB, published in 2022 in English.
