This highly successful text, which has achieved wide acclaim among practitioners and is a recommended text in all major British dental schools, has now been revised and updated.
This revised edition includes expanded sections on implants, emphasizing their role in the replacement of missing teeth compared with bridges and partial dentures. In addition, greater weight is given to fixed-movable designs for posterior minimal-preparation bridges. Other areas covered include the changing attitudes towards composite and porcelain veneers and the introduction of the automix gun simplifying the mixing and placing of impression and other materials.
