Full Description
Dedicated guide to the examination, planning, and execution of hypodontia treatment
Clinical Guide to Hypodontia delivers a comprehensively illustrated overview of the multidisciplinary decision making approach for patients with hypodontia. Optimal care of patients with developmentally missing teeth requires collaboration from a range of disciplines and has lifelong implications. Recognizing this, the Editor has designed the book around a patient's journey. In doing so, the book systematically addresses the key factors specific to hypodontia that directly impact patient care from genetic risks, associated syndromes and clinical variation, to joint MDT clinics, individual specialty treatments and patient related quality of life.
Each pattern of hypodontia has a dedicated chapter focusing on the meticulous explanation of the decision making process around each treatment option, including symmetrical and asymmetrical space closure, space opening and tooth replacement, multiple adjacent missing teeth, options for primary teeth, and associated hard and soft tissue surgery. High-quality clinical images clearly illustrate the concepts discussed in each chapter.
Readers will also find:
An introduction to joint planning clinics and patient information
The understanding of how dental specialties can come together as part of a wider medical team for hypodontia care
Practical discussion of potential complications and patient follow up
Clinical Guide to Hypodontia is ideal for any practitioner that wants a deep understanding of hypodontia from students to specialty trainees in restorative dentistry, periodontics, prosthodontics, orthodontics, oral surgery, maxillofacial surgery, and pediatric dentistry.
