Textbook of Geriatric Dentistry

By Holm-Pedersen, Poul Holm-Pedersen, Harald Loe

This second edition contains updated as well as entirely new chapters, reflecting the pace of both clinical work and research in geriatric dentistry. Several contributors provide authoritative chapters in their respective areas of expertise. These cover such topics as clinical assessment; treatment planning; preventive dental services; clinical management of medically compromised and/or cognitively impaired elderly patients; and the role of the dentist and dental hygienist in interdisciplinary teams. The main purpose of the book is to assist the practicing dentist and dental student in dealing with the increasingly complex and more demanding clinical situations they confront in the practice of geriatric dentistry.
