    Summary: "Since its introduction in 2012, cell-free (cf) DNA based Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing (NIPT) has been employed to test for fetal chromosome abnormalities, and gene mutations that lead to a variety of genetic conditions, by millions of pregnant women, in more than 90 countries worldwide. With Noninvasive Prenatal Testing (NIPT): Applied Genomics in Prenatal Screening and Diagnosis, Dr Lieve Page-Christiaens and Dr Hanns-Georg Klein have compiled the first authoritative volume on cfDNA NIPT methods and their clinical implementation"--Publisher's description.

    Prosthetic provision with removable part-replacement was divided into 7 groups according to the type of support and the prognosis was established on the basis of caries activity and several criteria of the periodontal condition, separated according to anchoring or supporting teeth as well as the remaining teeth. Generally regressive changes must be expected which become more marked with reduction in the number of teeth and support possibilities.
