Pronóstico Periodontal

Deciding which tooth is to be treated, which kept and which extracted depends on prognosis, the part of periodontal reasoning that most conditions the treatment plan and the one that is hardest to systematise. Pedro Martínez Canut devotes this work, written in Spanish, to that clinical judgement: how periodontal prognosis is established and what part it plays in the decisions the practitioner makes every day. It is aimed at the periodontist and the general dentist who want a firmer basis for their predictions and to communicate them to the patient with sound reasoning.
