Successful implant therapy requires far more than technical proficiency; it depends on meticulous diagnostic data collection, careful organization of information, and thoughtful analysis to support sound clinical decision-making that synthesizes medical and dental histories, clinical examinations, radiographic and 3D imaging, prosthetic requirements, anatomical limitations, and patient-centered considerations. This book seeks to help by providing clinicians with a structured, systematic approach to diagnostic evaluation, treatment planning, and procedural execution. Emphasizing concise, procedure-oriented frameworks in the forms of checklists and guidelines, it offers a focused review of the critical elements required for proper case assessment, planning, and execution, reinforcing best practices and enabling clinicians to better navigate the inherent complexity of oral implantology and ultimately deliver safer, more predictable, and higher-quality outcomes for their patients. Consent forms and postoperative instructions are included for use in daily practice.

In this fully revised and updated edition of his bestselling book, Dr Arun Garg delineates how full-arch implant rehabilitation (FAIR) can transform the lives of patients with complete edentulism or hopeless teeth. With the FAIR protocol, axial implants in the anterior are combined with tilted implants in the posterior to support a full-arch prosthesis; this FAIR prosthesis is immediate, fixed, esthetic, and highly functional, and it can frequently be loaded without bone grafting. The book describes the rationale behind the FAIR protocol, details the technique step by step along with its modifications, and demonstrates its use in various patient scenarios with comprehensive clinical case presentations. This new edition boasts several new chapters on digital dentistry and how to incorporate these tools in the workflow, including the role of CBCT, photogrammetry, and facial scanning, as well as additional chapters focusing on patient-perceived barriers to treatment, prosthetic protocols, and marketing your full-arch practice.

Ceramic implants mark a turning point in the field of dental implantology. Zirconia can offer not only remarkable biocompatibility and esthetics but also exceptional strength and durability. Titanium has long been considered the gold standard, but under the right indications, zirconia can truly be the superior choice. Patients have higher esthetic expectations than ever before, and some want to avoid introducing metals into their bodies. This text covers the biomechanical and biologic properties of ceramic dental materials, the challenges that remain in the field, and practical considerations such as material selection and surgical implementation, so you can confidently meet the diverse needs and wants of every patient who walks through your door.

With their book Plastic-Esthetic Periodontal and Implant Surgery – A Microsurgical Approach, the two nationally and internationally renowned authors, Dr. Otto Zuhr and Prof. Dr. Marc Hürzeler, have already written one of the most important works on oral surgery. They now present their patient-oriented treatment approach for implantology and periodontal surgery in their new book “Decision Making at the Crossroads between Periodontology and Implant Dentistry – A Call for Personalized Oral Medicine”.

Due to extensive current scientific evidence available in dental medicine, it is no longer appropriate for dentists to be for or against preserving severely damaged teeth or to be for or against implants. The time has come to break away from dogma and combine both worlds – tooth preservation and implant therapy – into a coherent approach for the benefit of patients.

In this groundbreaking three-volume compendium, the authors demonstrate, among other things, how to achieve healthy and stable gingival and peri-implant soft tissue, considering the latest evidence and the individual risk profiles and needs of patients.

The work contains a wealth of information, providing all the necessary biologic and technical principles (Volume 1) as well as the surgical techniques (Volumes 2 and 3) required for practitioners in the fields of implantology, periodontology, and oral surgery. The in-depth work comprises a user-friendly format, including numerous detailed case studies with step-by-step procedures and extensive lists of materials. It is brilliantly illustrated with top-quality photographs and radiographs as well as other illustrative material, and is supplemented by a number of videos. This outstanding work is without doubt a real breakthrough and should be included in every dental library!

This book masterfully illustrates the importance of soft tissues for the esthetic and functional success of implants. The authors trace their paths for each clinical scenario step by step and share how to master the technical management of the periodontal tissues. The proposed treatments combine innovative and traditional solutions to tackle every situation, including “impossible” clinical cases. This work represents an undisputed point of reference for peri-implant soft tissue surgery and offers a guided journey between biology, esthetics, and surgery.

Eric Van Dooren and Florin Cofar’s new book, produced in collaboration with Victor Clavijo, Gustavo Giordani, and Venceslav Stankov, explores the intersection between conventional esthetic dentistry and the digital world. Eric Van Dooren, regarded as one of the world’s leading periodontists, shares the knowledge he has accumulated over the course of his career and highlights the digital protocols that improve and enhance esthetic treatment results.

The book examines the fields of fixed prosthetics, implantology, and periodontics from an esthetic point of view. The authors provide keys to simple and complex esthetic treatments, whether performed with analog or digital protocols. An entire volume is dedicated to orthodontic treatments and their harmonious integration into the treatment plan. Finally, the last volume focuses on implant-prosthetic treatments and the frequent interventions they require.

Single-tooth replacement in the esthetic zone is one of the most common indications for dental implant placement. Immediate dentoalveolar restoration (IDR) is a technique established to broaden indications for immediate loading on individual teeth with compromised hard or soft tissue architecture. With this protocol, lost tissues are reconstructed in the same surgical session as implant placement and provisional crown delivery, reducing the number of interventions and promoting better esthetics with greater predictability. This book provides step-by-step explanation of the protocols for IDR, featuring minimally invasive and flapless procedures, use of the maxillary tuberosity for graft harvesting, immediate loading, and correct crown contouring for adequate emergence profile. Many clinical cases of different complexity are demonstrated to highlight the versatility of this technique and the excellent outcomes possible.

When osseointegration was first introduced by Brånemark as a therapy for the replacement of the natural dentition, it was accepted as an appropriate and predictable solution for young and middle-aged edentulous patients. No one anticipated the positive results and high level of acceptability that this therapy would bring about. The decision regarding whether to save a tooth or insert an implant is one that the implant clinician makes based on previous experience, recently approved therapeutics, and the best interests of the patient. This high-quality and timely publication will serve to enhance the armamentarium of implant clinicians in this regard. The editors have engaged leading thinkers in surgery and prosthetics to share their methods, ranging from prevention to regeneration. The text provides contemporary information for achieving constructive endpoint goals and for managing solutions to peri-implantitis and should have a place in every dental library.
