Phillips Science of Dental Materials

From basic to advanced concepts, this New Edition represents the definitive source of information on the selection, use and biocompatability of modern and traditional materials used in preventive and restorative dentistry. Completely revised and expanded, this book features a stronger focus on the clinical relevance of dental materials. Readers will find significant descriptions of clinical procedures involving material manipulation, plus helpful discussions of trouble-shooting. Emphasis is on principles - rather than on characteristics of brand-name products with limited commercial lifetimes.
