However, it is precisely these basic procedural skills every dentist must master in order to perform well in general dental practice with minimal clinician and patient anxiety. This book deals exclusively with the basic oral surgical procedures performed daily in the dental office. The clinical chapters are all identically divided into indications, contraindications, specific risks, local anesthesia, step-by-step clinical procedure, wound care and closure, and postoperative controls. The text is supplemented by only a few relevant literature references. The strength of this book lies in its series of clinical images, as well as videos embedded as QR codes and viewable with a smartphone or tablet. This combination of images and videos is intended to give students, early career professionals, and practitioners more confidence in planning and performing oral surgical interventions.
