McCracken's Removable Partial Prosthodontics, 10th Edition

Featuring both clinical and laboratory aspects of providing removable partial dentures to manage the condition of missing teeth, MCCRACKEN'S REMOVABLE PARTIAL PROSTHODONTICS has been a standard text in dental schools for close to 30 years. This evidence-based text provides the necessary information to diagnose, design, develop, and sequence a treatment plan. Thoroughly revised and updated, content extends from initial contact with the patient to post-placement care.
Brand new chapter covering the biomechanics of removable partial dentures
Material revised in response to new longitudinal studies on class design, oral hygiene, mouth preparation, patient adaptability and support of surrounding oral and maxillofacial tissues.
Discussions on impression methodology and light cure materials have been expanded to reflect the most current techniques.
Updates for changes to clinical modalities include concise information on: the use of the Periodontal Screening and Recording (PSR) examination to identify patients at risk for periodontal disease; the use of lasers for removal of hyperplastic tissue; the deletion of a recommendation on the application of hydrocortisone to a freshly lacerated surface; and a continued emphasis on infection control.
Extensively revised and updated literature review appears in the Selected Reading References section in the back of the book.
