Since the concept of osseointegration was introduced to the dental community more than 35 years ago by Professor P-I Brånemark, significant improvements have been achieved in patient evaluation, methods used to enhance the bone and soft tissues of potential implant sites, and surgical techniques to prepare the osteotomy sites and place the implants. In particular, CBCT scans and associated software planning programs now enable the implant team to analyze the bone sites in three dimensions in relation to the proposed contours of the implant-retained prostheses; select implants of suitable diameter, length, and configuration; position them virtually in ideal locations; and fabricate surgical templates that enable surgeons to prepare the osteotomy sites and place the implants with great precision. These topics are thoroughly discussed from the perspective that an interdisciplinary approach will yield the most predictable outcomes for treatment of the dental implant patient. The authors address the sometimes controversial topic of immediate loading and provide useful insights regarding when this approach can achieve predictable outcomes and when it is to be avoided. The use of CAD/CAM technologies is emphasized throughout the text, and the latest developments and their use in this rapidly expanding arena are fully described. Contents: 1. History and Introduction to Implant Surgery 2. The Evolution of Modern Dental Implant Surfaces 3. Medical History and Physical Examination 4. Workup and Diagnostic Procedures 5. Implant Surgery Basics 6. Computer-Guided Planning and Surgery 7. Tilted and Zygomatic Implants 8. Hard and Soft Tissue Augmentation 9. Reconstruction of Major Maxillary and Mandibular Defects with Implants 10. Surgical Considerations for the Esthetic Zone 11. Immediate Loading, Immediate Provisionalization, and Delayed Loading 12. Maintenance and Follow-Up 13. Surgical Complications of Implant Placement

It is now generally recognized that implant dentistry is driven by the prosthodontic needs of the patient, and so it is fitting that the first book in the two-volume Fundamentals of Implant Dentistry series focuses on the design and fabrication of implant-retained prostheses. The authors of this definitive textbook cover the full range of restorative treatment options for edentulous and partially edentulous situations, from relatively simple problems that can be handled by a solo practitioner to those with substantial prosthodontic complexities, periodontal compromise of existing dentition, and significant bone and soft tissue defects. Throughout, the authors emphasize the importance of an interdisciplinary approach and demonstrate how it encourages the best results, particularly when restoring partially edentulous patients. The text covers the latest innovations in diagnostic evaluation, surgical procedures, and the methods and materials used to fabricate prostheses, including the use of CAD/CAM technologies. The authors also address special and sometimes controversial topics in implant dentistry, including the use of implants in irradiated patients and in growing children as well as the symbiotic relationship between orthodontics and osseointegration. Lastly, readers will appreciate the illustrated glossary of terms. This groundbreaking work provides the kind of unrivaled insight that can ensure the highest degree of clinical success in prosthetic restoration, and it is destined to become the definitive textbook and desk reference for dental students and practitioners alike.
