This book aims to provide clinicians and students with the scientific and clinical information necessary to improve their outcomes in implant dentistry. The authors have succeeded described in detail all approaches and planning rationals to benefit the most those who are new to implant dentistry. The opening chapter deals with pre-clinical studies which support the biological understanding of implant rehabilitation. This is followed by one chapter that describes the clinical outcomes up to five years of follow-up of the Grand Morse™ Implant System. The next chapter covers all the current technology for implant-guided surgery. Chapters four and five describe successfully the prosthetics options for digital rehabilitations which cover single units, bridges, and fixed full-arches using the partnership with a dental lab or the chairside equipment. This is followed by chapter six, which deals with treatment considerations for a well-established technique for double fixed full-arch rehabilitation with immediate loading, and summarized all the workflows to facilitate the procedure from initial visits to prosthesis delivery. The final chapter highlights biomaterials options to achieve predictable soft and bone tissue repair or regeneration, as well as the use of slow active oxygen release therapy to optimize the healing of soft tissues. All the content presented in the book is profusely illustrated with photographs and diagrams. We hope this book provides a great experience for all clinicians interested in implant dentistry.
Giuliano Bonfante (1904-2005) was an Italian linguist who lived through the tumultuous historical period of the twentieth century, in which he took an active part, personally, politically, and intellectually. This intellectual biography, translated from the Italian of Maria Luisa Porzio Gernia, his successor to the Linguistics Chair in the University of Turin, follows the course of his adventurous life, in Italy, France, Spain, Switzerland, and the United States during the years of Fascism and the Second World War, and back to Italy and a prolific, successful scholarly career. Throughout, he developed his ideas on the Indo-European languages and their relation to modern languages, especially the Romance languages. Bonfante's most conspicuous scholarly legacy is in the field of historical linguistics, where he transformed our understanding of Indo-European languages and the relationships between them. He also pointed out the archaic and conservative character of Latin, contrasting with the innovative character of Greek. His love of literature informed much of his work, as did his belief that language is above all expressive, that it is poetry.
