Adhesive Techniques in Restorative Dentistry

Beschreibung

This book is a compendium of minimally invasive adhesive techniques employed in Restorative Dentistry. The ten chapters provide detailed practically-oriented information on the full plethora of restorative techniques ranging from; dental bleaching of vital and non-vital units; the provision of composite resin bonding for functional optimisation and aesthetic enhancement; the management of tooth surface loss and the restoration of endodontically treated teeth. There are also dedicated chapters on the restoration of various cavity class forms; the replacement of teeth utilising adhesive techniques through resin bonded bridges and the management of commonly presenting occlusal problems.

Readers will find clear and comprehensive explanations and stepwise clinical protocols for the delivery of direct and indirect adhesive restorations and their associated clinical procedures such as soft tissue management, optimising the adhesive bond and isolation techniques. Dental professionals will appreciate the wealth of clinical images that are a key part of the formulation of the book to educate and inform on both contemporary and traditional approaches to adhesive dentistry provision. Throughout, guidance is provided on appropriate case selection and the underlying science is explained whenever necessary. Written in an easy to understand practical manner the book will be of value for practitioners of all levels of experience, from undergraduate to experienced specialist practitioner as a source of learning or reference.
