PURPOSE OF BOOK: To enlarge and speed up the usage of small dental implants in all areas of dentistry and to encourage the adoption of implant dentistry into the undergraduate curriculum of dental schools. To encourage and teach dentists, especially general dentists how to get started in implant dentistry by using minis first and to grasp the fact that it is easier and safer to place a dental implant to replace a tooth than to cut 2 abutment teeth to replace a tooth using a conventional bridge.
Note: Small dental implants are also known as MINIS or RDIS[Reduced Diameter Implants] or MOSTDIS[Minimized Osseointegrated Screw Titanium Dental Implants]. In this book, they will be mainly called MOSTDIS. COSTDIS[ Conventional Osseointegrated Screw Titanium Dental Implants] are conventional large dental implants.
