Which assumptions underpin Saliva - An Important Factor for a Successful Prosthesis?

DentalReach Practice Perspective:

There’s an old axiom, “you never miss the water till the well runs dry”. How true is that, especially for saliva! The fact is, a world without saliva is. The concept should be tested against diagnosis, prognosis, treatment alternatives, biological cost, patient preference and a measurable review outcome.
