Approaching periodontology in the “made easy”collection has been a real challenge as this is a complex discipline, and difficult to comprehensively integrate into daily clinical practice.
The co-authors of this book, who are clinicians and university professors from across the European continent, agreed to take on the challenge of distilling their knowledge into a working reference textbook of periodontology.
From the management of the patient to the long-term follow-up, including multidisciplinary treatment options, they present the key fundamentals, synthesizing years of experience into best-practice clinical methods.
Their experience helps to get to the point, which is to develop the appropriate treatment plan for each patient.
This is indeed the purpose of this book: supplying a practical guide to every practitioner, particularly to non-specialized dental surgeons, delivering simple, clear messages, along with some “tricks”.
It is illustrated with numerous clinical examples and with helpful guides
providing answers to essential questions:
- How should the screening or the complete periodontal assessment
be performed?
- How can we identify high risk patients and assess their periodontal profile?
- How can we help our patients understand their disease and find
the right words to help motivate them to achieve and maintain oral health?
- What are best tools and instruments used for periodontal screening, as well
as those used for treatment?
- When is surgery indicated, and what are the key steps during the planning,
intervention and follow-up phases?
- When is the additional use of orthodontics, prosthetics and/or implant
rehabilitation indicated? And what are the known risks of these additional
procedures?

Readers will find helpful answers to all of these questions as each chapter provides a comprehensive and easy-to-understand resource, reflecting years of clinical experience and scientific evidence, in each topical area in the practice of periodontology.
