Sobre aquest llibre

This book describes the most commonly used techniques in Oral Rehabilitation. It has been designed in a step-by-step manner, using study models to standardize how procedures should be performed in an ideal scenario. In this textbook, every chapter contains the description of a technique, its aim and the rationale for each step, which provides students with the tools to grasp the logical reasoning behind each procedure. The volume is divided into three parts: (1) Surgery; (2) Tooth-supported prosthodontics and (3) Implant-supported prosthodontics.

This textbook is rich in photographic images and diagrams, and is highly didactic and will facilitate the route to achieving competence in the techniques described here. It was created for both dental students and qualified dentists, as one may learn thoroughly from it, as well as use it as a quick reference.
