Clinical approaches and evidence of succes

A comprehensive review of contemporary periodontics in which clinicians and investigators offer solid treatment options and clinical evidence. The 26 chapters begin with an introduction to the essentials of goal-oriented treatment planning and a discussion of the treatment of medically compromised and juvenile patients, explaining the latest diagnostic techniques. Following chapters contain ample illustrations and case studies to highlight specific therapy options and procedures such as osseus and mucogingival surgery, flap design and suturing, treating maxillary and mandibular furcations, and more. Other chapters present advanced techniques, such as guided tissue regeneration and bone grafts, concluding with a detailed look at supportive periodontal care.
