Abstract
This chapter discusses those steps in the preinsertion, postinsertion, aftercare, and maintenance procedures that are common to the protocols of all of the mainstream applications of the abutment-providing modalities covered in this book—root forms, plate/blade forms, and unilateral subperiosteal implants. When studying or treating a case, this chapter should be read in tandem with the chapter in the book that is specifically related to the modality and treatment selected for the case at hand. The protocols for each modality contain some common steps—for example, one must incise along the ridge crest in the same manner and according to the same principles whether treatment is performed using root forms, plate/blade forms, or a subperiosteal implant. However, the extent of the incision is unique to each modality. Therefore, any specific considerations related to common steps are covered separately in the step-by-step procedure chapters that follow.
