Preface to the second edition

Vijay Prakash, Ruchi Gupta

It gives us great pleasure and at the same time significant

responsibility to bring the second edition of our book on

Prosthodontics. Through our teaching experience and interaction with

undergraduates, postgraduates and fellow practitioners, we found

that understanding of Prosthodontics is often complex and

challenging. We believe that it is one subject which should be taught,

read and understood three dimensionally. We have attempted to

demystify the subject and have written in easy-to-understand format.

In this edition, the book is redone to shape into concise textbook form

that have plenty of flowcharts, illustrations, line diagrams and tables.

Another distinctive feature is that the book is in full colored version

that includes updated text and diagrams for better understanding of

the subject. The coloured line diagrams will aid in having better visual

impact and clarity to the students.

This book is divided into five sections, each section is dedicated to

each branch of Prosthodontics. These five sections include: Complete

Denture, Removable Partial Denture, Fixed Partial Denture,

Maxillofacial Prosthodontics, and Implantology. Each section is

written in such a format that it covers the entire syllabus laid down by

the Dental Council of India (DCI). Within the scope of the book, latest

topics such as CAD– CAM in dentistry, porcelain laminates and

immediate loading implants have been covered. At the end of each

chapter, Key Facts provided which will help the students preparing

for the entrance examinations and viva-voce. At the end of Section V,

Question Bank is given as Appendix. This question bank will expose

students to variety of questions usually asked in various university

examinations at both undergraduate and postgraduate level.

Finally we consider our privilege to share our knowledge and

experience over the years with the budding dentists. We sincerely

hope newer generation of dentists will continue to inspire and

innovate methods to improve patient care and take our profession to

newer heights.

You can refer the front inner cover of the book to explore online

additional reading material. Besides these, you will get access to the

complimentary e-book also.

Preface to the first edition

Vijay Prakash, Ruchi Gupta

It gives us a sense of immense pleasure and pride to bring out the

Prosthodontics: Exam Preparatory Manual for Undergraduates. The

understanding of prosthodontics with its variations can be complex

and challenging especially considering the rapid advancements in the

technology and newer materials. Students often complain about the

lack of understanding in one or more areas of this subject.

This book is divided into five sections and each section is dedicated

to an individual branch of prosthodontics. It is delibrately written in

the question–answer format so that the students can understand,

remember and reproduce it in the examination. The answers are

accompanied by line diagrams for better understanding and

reproducibility. In the entire book only line diagrams are given so that

the students can easily grasp and redraw in the examination. Attempt

has been made to keep the answers as simple, comprehensive and at

the same time complete. We have referred to a number of textbooks

and journals to comprehensively provide relevant answers to the

questions. We have included Key Facts in every chapter and have also

provided a Question Bank at the end of the book for the complete

preparation for the examination.

Although we have made all attempts to cover almost all the

syllabus laid down by the Dental Council of India but still we

recommend the students to read the standard textbook along with this

manual. This book is not meant to replace but to complement the

standard textbook.

Finally, we sincerely hope all the readers will benefit from this

book. We wish the students all success in life and sincerely advice

them with this success mantra—

“Life’s battles don’t always go to the stronger and the faster man,

But sooner or later the man who wins is the man who thinks he

can”.

Acknowledgements

grace on us to accomplice this book. Accomplishment of any work

requires the efforts of number of people and this is no exception.
