| Review: |
| (Book News, Inc.) --- A text providing information for the dental student and the clinician addressing prosthetic care of older patients, with an emphasis on decision making and ethical questions. Budtz-Jorgensen (gerodontology and removable prosthodontics, U. of Geneva, Switzerland) presents ten chapters addressing epidemiology; age-related changes of the masticatory apparatus; masticatory function and nutrition; prosthodontic treatment planning for older adults and for the frail or dependent elderly; treatment with fixed prostheses and with removable partial dentures; root-supported overdentures; treatment of edentulous patients; and preventative measures and maintenance care after treatment. Plentiful color photographs illustrate the symptoms, equipment, and techniques described in the text. |
