Description
Summary:Provides a step-by-step, highly illustrated guide to this difficult area of dentistry. This new book covers the design process, identification and explanation of the role of the denture and the way in which components are selected to achieve successful and safe function, providing an invaluable student aid. This text does not assume prior knowledge and so provides an excellent introduction to partial removable prosthodontics. Section one concentrates on the underlying theory and clear examples explain the principles in a straightforward manner. Section two allows students to put the theory into practice by providing step-by-step instructions on designing and fitting partial dentures. The final section of the book concentrates on problem-solving and the more complex areas of denture design, such as denture construction for the ageing dentition.
