This book provides undergraduates on pre-clinical courses on operative dentistry with an up-to-date introduction to the restoration of teeth. It avoids the purely mechanical approach by stressing the role of dental caries in influencing cavity form. Considerable emphasis is placed on the prevention of dental diseases, and the clinical usage of dental materials reflects current practice. The author presents a straightforward approach to the clinical procedures of tooth preparation and restoration.
