Terapia Periodontal No Quirúrgica

Marisa Roncati devotes this manual to the non-surgical management of the periodontal patient, from the first visit and diagnosis through to re-evaluation and a lasting maintenance programme. The author insists on two decisive fronts: the patient's home care and instrumentation — hand or mechanical — executed with precision, capable of removing the pathogens while respecting the biology of the tissues. The graphic apparatus, with abundant clinical images and instructional drawings, serves for acquiring and correcting operative technique according to the methods she has modified. The use of the diode laser in mucositis and early peri-implantitis and a large collection of cases with long-term follow-up complete the route.
