Title: Implant treatment planning and rehabilitation of the anterior maxilla: Part 1. Author: John V, Gossweiler M. Journal: J Indiana Dent Assoc; 2001; 80(2):20-4. PubMed ID: 11693002. Abstract: Implant-supported restorations have become very popular in the management of the partially or completely edentulous patient. Success depends on attentive treatment planning and coordinated teamwork between the surgeon and the restoring dentist.

This case illustrates some of the problems that can arise during the course of treatment.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
