Description : Fixed prosthodontic therapy is one of the most demanding disciplines in the field of dentistry. This avenue is usually pursued only after other possibilities have been exhausted, often when the durability of teeth has been reduced, when one or more teeth are missing, or in the presence of conditions that cannot be treated conservatively. Enhance your expertise in this area with this comprehensive text, focusing on all the essential protocols for success at every stage of therapy: planning and performing treatment, evaluating the esthetics and function of restorations, and implementing follow-up practices to maintain long-term success. Discover the importance of meticulous treatment planning to meet the short- and long-term demands and needs of each patient; learn key principles and techniques for effective and minimally invasive tooth preparation; avoid common mistakes caused by rushing into procedures without proper guidance; embrace the latest in recently developed techniques and technologies for creating high-quality prosthetic restorations; explore the intricacies of cementation for optimum adhesion and retention; and learn how to strategize for long-term restoration success and oral health. Whether you’re an experienced clinician or an ambitious dental professional seeking to expand your practice, the protocol-driven approach advocated in this text will equip you to achieve consistent and exceptional results with fixed prosthodontic therapy.
