Stewart's Clinical Removable Partial Prosthodontics

This reference is intended for dental students, residents, and practitioners, and is presented in chronological sequence of patient treatment, from the early diagnostic appointments through mouth preparation, the creation of a master cast, lab procedures for framework construction, fitting the framework, maintenance and repair of removable partial dentures, and attachments for dentures. Each chapter builds on information presented in the previous chapters, providing a foundation in removable partial denture design, construction, and placement. The text is supported with numerous b&w and color photos and illustrations. This fourth edition features a section describing the Prosthodontic Diagnostic Index, as well as a new chapter on implant-assisted removable partial dentures.
