"This book is well written and organized. The approach is evidence based, with the majority of the focus on treatment planning for implants in patients who are partially or completely edentulous. The pairing of the book with the website is very helpful to visual learners and those who have limited experience with implant placement." (Doody Enterprises 28/04/2017)
