Abstract: Presents the treatment planning, preparation, fabrication, and use of tooth- and implant-supported prosthodontics, both in theory and in practice. Drawing on knowledge accumulated over 30 years in clinical practice, the author describes and illustrates a variety of techniques to guide practitioners toward an esthetic final result while avoiding many of the pitfalls typically associated with partial and complete-arch prostheses.
