Editorial Reviews
Review
“This book is certainly appropriate for core reading, and highly recommended for all dental team members who are interested in developing their own teamworking knowledge related to implant provision. As a quick reference and an aide-mémoire when discussing procedural stages it provides a quality reference manual.” (Team in Practice, January 2011)
