Short and Extra-Short implants

In this book, exclusively dedicated to short implants, all the necessary subjects for its use in daily clinical practice are addressed. Biomechanical information on the performance of these implants, the importance of their surface, concepts about specific drilling guidelines for implant placements and a summary of the elaboration method of the prosthesis is summarized.
In addition, specific and novel techniques for the treatment of vertical atrophy in the maxilla and mandible are detailed.
