The Guidebook to Molar Endodontics

“
The Guidebook to Molar Endodontics
presents molar endodontics within a clearly structured and systematic framework, guiding the reader through both the biological foundations and clinical intricacies of treatment. ... the book provides a comprehensive and clinically focused overview of molar endodontics. It is likely to serve as a valuable reference for postgraduate trainees and practising clinicians seeking structured guidance to support evidence-based clinical decision-making and refine their endodontic practice.” (Ricku Mathew Reji, British Dental Journal, Vol. 240 (7), April, 2026)
