Managing Fully Edentulous Patients

Managing Fully Edentulous Patients

Dental implants are used routinely throughout the world to replace missing teeth. With the broadening of treatment options and an increasing number of clinicians that provide implant therapy, it is important to ensure that the treatment methods used meet the highest clinical standards.

Volume 15 of the ITI Treatment Guide series provides clinicians with evidence-based protocols for treating edentulous jaws using dental implants. It systematically discusses the surgical and prosthetic rehabilitation of edentulous patients with dental implants based on currently available scientific evidence while consistently considering patient-related outcomes.

The necessary differential diagnoses, implant and implant-prosthetic planning, and treatment procedures are presented in detail by internationally renowned clinicians, as demonstrated in 10 step-by-step clinical cases with treatment concepts ranging from implant-supported overdentures to full-arch implant-supported fixed rehabilitations.
