Dental Materials and Their Selection

Dental Materials and Their Selection
- Used Book in Good Condition
Principles of materials science are closely integrated with everyday dental practice in this revised textbook. Written in a practical, straightforward manner, it provides a fundamental knowledge of material structure and properties, and real-life clinical examples show how to apply this information to restorative treatments. This didactic combination will enable students, technicians, and clinicians to select appropriate materials for various clinical situations.
