"This resource offers a complete look at the practice of periodontics, from theories and concepts to practical clinical applications. It embraces a vision of periodontology and implant dentistry for today's dental practice that simultaneously expands horizons to meet the needs of patients in the future. It features a unique approach that stresses the role of diagnosis and treatment in controlling infection and establishing an oral environment that is conducive to the patient's overall health and well-being. Guided by a firm understanding of the pathobiology of periodontal diseases and other oral infections, this book details new knowledge in the field of periodontal medicine, nonsurgical care, periodontal surgery, oral plastic and reconstructive surgical techniques, and dental implant therapy."--BOOK JACKET.
