This practical resource describes and illustrate each step of the basic surgical procedures
involved in the placement of implants in qualified patients. Each procedure is briefly but
lucidly described, carefully illustrated in a series of drawings of the techniques and instrumentation used, and reinforced through clinical photographs. In addition to the basic implant surgical principles, evidence-based indications and procedures for guided bone regeneration in apical fenestration and crestal dehiscence defects, and for simultaneous sinus floor elevation via the lateral window and osteotome techniques are featured.
