Product Description A periodontal surgical atlas for students, general practitioners, and specialists. It explains techniques, and adds discussion of indications and contraindications, advantages and disadvantages, and related treatment problems and reasons for failure.

A new chapter has also been added on sutures and suturing. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
