Description

The third edition of this undergraduate text has been extensively updated and expanded to reflect recent research, materials, and techniques in fixed prosthodontics. It brings the reader up to date, but its adherance in fundamentals remains. Concepts and clinical procedures are described and illustrated, and presentation of the material is enhanced by the larger page size of this edition. It includes new chapters on: all-ceramic restorations; resin-bonded fixed partial dentures; and restoration of periodontally weakened teeth.
