Estimates indicate that edentulism has declined by 10 percent every decade and that only ninety percent of edentulous adults obtain and wear complete dentures.  However, this ten percent decline will be offset by 79% increase in the adult population older than 55 years of age.  Clinical implications are twofold: practicing dentists will find that a sizable minority of patients will continue to need complete denture services and if training in complete denture prostheses is eliminated from the dental education, millions of patients will be forced to seek denture services from alternative providers……denturists!

SOFT TISSUE DISEASE

 

Some oral soft tissue diseases exhibit distinctive clinical features and require little more than visual recognition to make an accurate diagnosis. Others share common features making an accurate diagnosis more challenging. Recognizing the clinical features most helpful in differentiating one lesion from another is an essential part of the diagnostic process.
 
In this manual, each lesion is illustrated by one or more color photographs depicting the typical clinical features and common variations. Recommendations for treatment and follow-up, including sample prescriptions and concise drug monographs, are included.
