Many of our Faculty members celebrated a book recently published entitled Mandibular Implant Prostheses: Guidelines for Edentulous Geriatric Populations. Edited by Dean Elham Emami and Professor Jocelyne Feine, it is the fruit of a collaboration amongst 平特五不中鈥檚 faculty members and other leading researchers in the field. Published by Springer this summer, it aims to advance clinicians鈥� knowledge and competence in treating older edentulous patients with mandibular implant overdentures.
The book is published at a time when aging is at the forefront of global health discussions. In addition, the burden that elderly patients face in maintaining their oral health-related quality of life and well-being is a true concern for dentists. Mandibular Implant Prostheses offers a comprehensive step-by-step guide to practice that is based on up-to-date clinical and research data; it offers advice on how to discuss treatment planning, as well as treatment options, with patients and describes patient management in the surgical and prosthetic phases.
