Читать книгу Vertical 2: The Next Level of Hard and Soft Tissue Augmentation - Istvan Urban - Страница 6

I would like to thank my family for their love and endless support, and our two sons, Isti and Marci, for their existence, spirit, and positive outlook on life. You make our life complete. As a child (and ever since), my parents never interfered in any of the decisions I made, as they believed in the development of the individual with only minimal guidance. I believe they were right, and I thank them for that.

My teachers, who were my teachers during my training, continue to be my teachers and will remain my teachers. Special thanks to Dr. Henry Takei for his inspiration and unsurpassed qualities as a humanitarian, both as an educator and as a periodontist. Special thanks also to Dr. Jaime Lozada for his belief in me as a student at Loma Linda University and his confidence that I would go on to do vertical ridge augmentation. I would also like to thank Dr. Sascha Jovanovic for introducing me to performing GBR in a biologically sound way. Thanks also to Dr. Joseph Kan, Dr.Perry Klokkevold, Dr. Anna Pogany, Dr. Bela Kovacs, and Dr. Lajos Patonay, and to all my other teachers. Without meeting all of you and being your student, there would be much less to say in this book.

I would like to express my appreciation to Quintessence Publishing, specifically to the management, Horst Wolfgang Haase and Christian Haase.

I would like to express my gratitude to Ms. Krisztina Szample for creating the schematic drawings, and to Denes Doboveczki for assisting in the photography for this book.

I would also like to thank Ms. Jacqueline Kalbach of The Avenues Company for her support in the preparation of my manuscripts, and of this book.
