The second edition of this educational atlas on cats expands on its initial goal of helping veterinary surgeons communicate with owners by adding to the content of the first edition with 16 new sheets. Needless to say that the previous topics have been revised and updated with the latest developments in each area.
This book aims to increase the effectiveness of communication between the dentist and the patient, especially in the case of certain therapies that are difficult to understand or where there may be an overload of information. After a brief introduction to tooth anatomy, the main interventions in implantology, periodontics, fixed and removable prosthetics, endodontics, conservative dentistry, and surgery are described.

How to measure what for does it really matter to them when physical health is not fully recoverable? How to help physicians and administrators identify the correct objectives and improvements? What scientific instruments can estimate the prospect of patients and society in allocating limited resources? The development of the Patient Reported Outcome Measurements (PROMs) helps answer many of these challenges.
