This completely updated step-by-step manual provides the knowledge and skill needed for clinicians to effectively rehabilitate patients who are completely edentulous. Treatment involving complete dentures is not simply a mechanical skill: It demands an accurate diagnosis of systemic and local problems as well as a focus on prosthetic design. In this book, the author expands on these essential skills as he describes a standardized pathway based on scientific principles to mastering the art of fabricating a complete denture.
