Description
Fully updated for this second edition, The Principles of Endodontics integrates theory with clinical practice to produce a modern and relevant guide to a core aspect of dental practice. This essential guide covers all the key areas of the subject, from patient management and treatment planning, to advanced restorative techniques. Chapters on treatment outcomes and dealing with complications and post-treatment disease prepare the reader for every eventuality in the field. Two new chapters on the restoration of the endodontically treated tooth and on the dento-legal aspects of endodontics have been added to bring this text up-to-date with modern clinical practice. Fully illustrated throughout, colour photographs and line drawings help readers to understand complex theories and procedures. Each chapter contains references to essential sources of further reading, while the straightfoward and clear style of the text demystifies the complex subject.
Reviews / Votes
The strengths of this book not only lie in the detailed yet accessible style of writing but also in the high quality of the line drawings and photographs used throughout the book. The photographs include radiographs. clinical cases, materials and equipment, and these in particular provide excellent reinforcement to the text. ... the authors of this book have succeeded in their aims to provide a comprehensive text to aid in the safe and effective practice of endodontics. The book would without a doubt be an excellent endodontic textbook for both undergraduate students and the dentists who are undertaking exams or just wishing to update their knowledge. Review from the previous edition Anyone looking for an authoritative and comprehensive revision text covering all aspects of endodontics need look no further. British Dental Association News This is a very well written book which has a modern and fresh approach. It is clear the authors have succeeded in producing a textbook which explains a difficult subject matter with relative ease and clarity. Dental students will find this book an excellent resource during undergraduate endodontic training but this book would also make an ideal refresher textbook for experienced practitioners and a revision aid for graduates undertaking postgraduate examinations i.e. MFDS. British Dental Journal The book is well illustrated, well indexed, and references have been left out of the main text and grouped together in a separate section; the result is uncluttered, easy-read text. This is a very welcome addition to the field and is destined to be very popular and deservedly so. International Endodontic Journal The second edition of The principles of endodontics has been worth the wait since the publication of the first edition back in 2005... The book is planned and designed well, making it easy to read... I would definitely recommend this book for any novice to endodontics or experienced GDP wishing to renew their knowledge. Concise, detailed, contemporary and well-delivered information makes this book a definite buy. M. Ali, for British Dental Journal, July 2013More details
