Operative Dentistry : A Practical Guide to Recent Innovations
(Clinical Sciences in Dentistry) This book describes
contemporary developments in operative dentistry. It covers recent
developments in caries detection techniques and treatment, as well as the
use of the latest composite and porcelain restorative materials, bleaching
and crown provision techniques. There is a chapter on non-carious tooth
tissue loss, which is an increasingly common problem through the
widespread consumption of carbonated beverages. This book provides enough
practical detail for the dentist to feel confident in expanding old skills
and trying new ones. The plethora of new dental materials and techniques
can prove daunting, but guidance is given as to which material or
technique will prove most useful in particular circumstances.
