Rezensionen

"Considering the fact that this is the first book on
peri-implant maintenance written for the dental hygienist, it may
serve as a first step towards developing protocols for daily
practice." (International Journal of Dental
Hygiene, 21 May 2014)

"With the increasing prevalence of dental implants, not
only would I recommend this book to its intended audience of dental
hygienists, but feel it is a good read for all dental professionals
and undergraduates who will inevitably come across dental implants
at some stage of their career." (British Dental
Journal, 7 February 2014)
