Divided into three parts: Patient assessment, Preparation of the mouth and Prosthetic treatment, this clinical guide provides a thorough approach to the assessment, planning and provision of removable partial dentures. Completely redesigned and revised this new edition of a well respected textbook is an essential reference point for any clinician involved in the provision of removable partial dentures. Taken in conjunction with the companion volume by the same authors, A Clinical Guide to Partial Denture Design, the book serves to guide the reader through every aspect of partial dentures. It does this in a practical way covering all aspects of the subject, from the initial examination and history through to the review appointment after fitting the finished prosthesis.

All stages in the care of patients requiring removable partial dentures are important and the design of the prostheses needs as much skill and application as the others. This book looks at the process of design and includes a self-assessment section in which the reader can test his or her knowledge and understanding against an international team of expert prothosdontists. A companion volume to A Clinical Guide to Removable Partial Dentures by the same authors, this guide acts as a colour atlas to partial denture design, incorporating excellent artwork to illustrate the fine points of this skilful and vitally important aspect of patient dental care.

This is a user-friendly guide to the principles of complete denture construction. It is a practical, extensively illustrated book for the general dental practitioner, starting with the examination of the edentulous patient and progressing through the different treatments in a logical way. A range of procedures has been described in sufficient detail so that the dentist can apply the best treatment measure to the specific clinical problem. A final chapter on domiciliary treatment has been included because elderly, housebound patients often present problems such as denture retention (because of the patients’ residual ridge atrophy or insufficient muscular control). Reference to original research work has been included so that the reader can explore the research evidence for himself.

Removable Partial Dentures: A Clinician's Guide is a highly practical step-by-step guide to the diagnosis, treatment planning, and manufacture of removable partial prostheses.

This clinical manual offers easy-to-follow instruction on removable partial dentures, thoroughly outlining this technique in a practical format. Aimed at the new dental professional, Removable Partial Dentures provides key information for general dentists and prosthodontists.

The second part presents different possibilities of overdenture construction from low-cost overdentures on some retained roots up to the sophisticated techniques for perio-overdentures. The third part draws attention to long-term care & recall for denture & overdenture wearers. For each procedure, the required materials & instrumentation are illustrated to help the dental auxiliary.
