Specialized literature abounds in books about surgical aspects of oral implantology , but there is no comprehensive and systematized textbook on the implant-supported prosthodontic rehabilitation of the patient . This book entitled Implant Prosthodontics - A Patient-Oriented Strategy under the editorship of Professor Stefan Wolfart fills this gap in the literature giving a comprehensive , explanatory , and abundantly illustrated book including five parts and twenty-seven chapters . The first part presents the Basic Principles of implant prosthodontics by analyzing patient profile , esthetic , dental prosthesis , emergencies , and implant-abutment profiles , timing of implant placement and loading protocols . Part two covers Treatment Concept and Treatment Planning starting from the medical and dental history , examination and diagnosis , establishing seven basic rules of implant prosthodontic planning for each individual clinical situation . Part three , Clinical Procedure , presents radiographic analysis , surgical guide , surgical procedures , provisional restorations , impression-taking technique , the maxillomandibular relationship record , fixed and removable restoration , occlusion concept , intraoral optical impression , prosthetic complications , and aftercare and recall . Part four , which deals with Restorations Concepts , analyzes one by one the single tooth gap within the esthetic zone , the multi-tooth gap or the free-end situation , severely reduced dentition and the edentulous arch . The final part is dedicated to Laboratory Procedures , fixed and removable prostheses on implants . The book ends with an Appendix of materials , instruments , equipment , and software . Implant Prosthodontics - A Patient-Oriented Strategy is a fundamental guide for both implantologists and prosthodontists , but also for general dentists and dental technicians in which they will find a complete and systematic presentation on the implant-supported prosthodontic rehabilitation of the patient illustrated with over 2,000 figures and many flowcharts .
