I have been a practicing dentist for 29 years and restoring implants since 1991. I am in the process of becoming board certified to now place my own fixtures. Misch does a fantastic job of bringing into view a number of treatment modalities and what the potential pitfalls can be if each particular step is not followed. Much better than the text book that the school is using. Anyone that is considering restoring and or placing fixtures and intends to get predictable esthetic and functional results needs to read this book.

This is a must have book for those who actually care to learn about implant dentistry from one of the leading figures in the field. Each chapter is well written and complete. You can access each chapter if you seek out specific information, or you can read the entire text front cover to last page.Highly recommend this book.

For quite a few years this remains the most comprehensive and enjoyable book in my implant library.

Timing was good. Just didn't list what edition it was and I was disappointed.
