Implant Zero Bone Loss Concepts 2019. - Author: Tomas Linkevicius. - Bone loss is still a major issue that dentists encounter, but it is a complication that can be prevented. - By combining clinical experience with peer-reviewed scientific evidence, the author of this book has put together a guide that any implant specialist will find invaluable to prevent bone loss in their patients. - Different strategies are presented that can be used to achieve zero bone loss years after treatment. - Because successful treatment depends on both the surgical and prosthetic components, the book is divided into two parts, each focusing in-depth on what must be done in each phase to promote bone stability. - Case presentations detail many types of clinical situations, implant choices, and prosthetic solutions, all backed by evidence-based clinical studies that have proven success.
