It is more and more frequent in complex rehabilitations that the aesthetic assessment\npre vails over function. This bookâs objective consists in outlining an\noperative management path of the vertical dimension where the optimal restoration\nof function coincides with the aesthetic result. The vertical dimension is\ncrucial both for a proper reconstruction of the occlusion and for a rehabilitation\ndirected to the whole stomatognathic system. The text proposes in a simple\nand practical way the key concepts drawn from Prof. Slavicek and Prof. Satoâs\nphilosophy, cutting across all the rehabilitative branches of dentistry, from\nremovable to fixed prosthesis, from implant prosthesis to orthodontics, either\nthat of the growing age or the one implemented in adult patients.
