"Implants and Others--When Teeth Go Missing" is the newest brochure to join the Stepping Stones to Success family of products.

Implants are a proven and increasingly common treatment option for patients with missing teeth; however, implant misinformation is widespread among the general public.

The brochure is written in easy-to-understand terms and focuses on questions dental staff members hear daily. It addresses the reasons missing teeth should be replaced, presents a simple description of how an implant "works," and covers the limited nature of insurance payment for implant services.

Written by Carol Tekavec, CDA RDH--a 28-year practicing clinical hygienist, insurance columnist and ADA Seminar Series speaker--the brochure is the sixth in her Stepping Stones series.
