Clinical Aspects of Dental Materials provides a basic, practical understanding of dental materials and materials science for dental hygiene students. The content is divided into three major sections, Theoretical Perspectives, Laboratory/Clinical Applications, and Case Studies. Part I, Theoretical Perspectives, covers the basics of dental materials, including science and theory. Part II, Lab/Clinical Applications, relates the clinical relevance of materials science to dental hygiene practice. Part III includes case studies that help students integrate other dental hygiene knowledge with materials science. The content is presented in an easy-to-follow outline format (similar to our Wilkins text), with limited amounts of technical information, covering only what is necessary for dental hygiene practice. Clinical relevance is stressed throughout, making the book practical and applicable for students. "Doody's Core Titles™ 2009."

This comprehensive exploration of restorative dental materials presents everything readers need to know to correctly use dental materials in the clinic and dental laboratory, from fundamental concepts to advanced skills. The scientific basis for technical procedures and manipulation of materials is provided, and the book's problem-solving approach focuses on applying new information to practical situations. At the end of each chapter, a case-based scenario presents the opportunity to work through problems and verify solutions. Extensive figures and tables of data throughout the book clarify the text. * Comprehensive information on restorative dental materials provides insight into both the fundamentals and the latest practical knowledge in the field. * Problem-solving approach presents cases with solutions at the end of each chapter, providing an opportunity to apply and test important principles. * Thoroughly revised content includes the latest information on: optical, thermal, and electrical properties; mechanical properties; preventive materials; composites; and impression materials. * The latest standards in the field are covered, including biocompatibility and standards of dental materials. * Easy-to-follow organization progresses according to the way in which material is most often taught in dental schools. * An appendix contains useful references such as weights and measurements, conversion tables, metric weights, and more. * Each chapter concludes with a list of references for further reading, divided by topic sections.

Fundamental principles of material science are closely integrated with everyday dental practice in the newly revised edition of this classic textbook. Written in a practical, straightforward manner with the student practitioner in mind, this book presents the essential knowledge of material structure and properties. A glossary of terms and discussion questions are included with each chapter to help students focus on the concepts they will need as practicing dentists. Promoting problem-based learning through the use of real-life clinical scenarios, the authors show how to apply the framework of material science to restorative treatment plans. This didactic combination will enable students, technicians, and clinicians not only to select appropriate materials for various clinical situations, but to handle them correctly for optimum clinical performance.

The use of polymers for dental purposes started with the invention of vulcanised rubber. The development of the dough technique made it possible to use polyacrylates in dentistry. The physical and mechanical properties of the cured base denture can be optimised by the proper selection of an initiator, plasticiser, pigment and cross-linking agents (di- or trifunctional methacrylates) The developing of the redox initiators for the polymerisation of methacrylates at room temperature made possible the direct application of these materials as filling resins. This book has been written in an effort to emphasise the use of polymeric materials in dentistry nowadays.
-
All aspects of materials science relevant to the practice of dentistry are covered in this textbook. It is aimed primarily at undergraduate dental students, although parts will be useful for practising dentists, dental technicians and dental surgery assistants. The new edition has been extensively revised to include the many advances in dental materials that have occurred during the past eight years, and includes new chapters on glass-ionomers and resin-modified glass-ionomers. The sections on dental adhesives and ceramics in particular have been expanded significantly. In addition, the scope has been widened to cover the clinical handling of materials.

Dental Biomaterials provides a unique insight into the myriad of dental materials by examining them in the context of actual clinical applications. Throughout the text there are sections entitled `Dental Significance' to emphasize the clinical importance of the material under discussion, resulting in a text that is perfect for students by imparting an unparalleled basic understanding of dental materials. It will also be a valuable reference for practicing dentists as it is highly objective and evidence-based. This approach provides sound advice for dentists charged with the difficult task of distinguishing between the plethora of materials available. It is amazingly broad in scope, providing basic information on polymers, metals and ceramics, including new product categories such as flowable composites, resin-modified glass ignomers and compomers, as well as providing a lucid insight into the highly confusing area of dentin bonding systems. It includes a review of contemporary materials and conservative restorative options and in doing so addresses materials used in virtually every dental discipline, including endodontics, periodontics, prosthodontics, orthodontics and pediatric dentistry. Of particular note is the attention given to esthetic restorative materials and properties.
