Fundamentals of Treatment Planning: Guidelines on How to Develop, Plan, Write, and Deliver a Prosthodontic Care Project

Lino Calvani turns treatment planning into an explicit, step-by-step method rather than the tacit knowledge each clinician improvises. He covers the objectives of planning, the first interview with the patient, extraoral and intraoral physical examination, diagnosis and prognosis, the types and structure of prosthodontic treatments and, above all, how a plan is written and presented. Chapters are given over to the analysis of complex rehabilitations in phases, from diagnosis and emergencies to prosthetic and restorative treatment, aftercare and review, and to the older patient or the patient in fragile health. Useful for prosthodontists, postgraduates and generalists. In English.
