The Books „Clinical Periodontology” (I volume) and “Non-Surgical and surgical treatment of periodontal disease” (II volume) are one of the most comprehensive ever written in the past few decades. It is a very useful tool for students at both the undergraduate and postgraduate level and for all clinicians that consider periodontology the solid base for the good clinical practice in dentistry.
The beginning with the description of the new classification of periodontal diseases is the perfect signature of the entire work that seems to be inspired from the very first pages by the overall understanding from health to the most severe cases.
All aspects of Periodontology from diagnostics to specific types of treatments are within this book and they are all matched with very well documented images that have the scope to bring the reader immediately at the chair-side, along with internationally validated and easy-to read protocols.
Each step of the way is paralleled with consistent and up-to date literature that has always been the scientific guidance of the authors Ketevan Gogilashvili and Tea Natsvlishvili, that, in my opinion, are the best example of passionate and professional clinicians the dental world always wishes to see next to our students.
