Wiley-Blackwell A Practical Approach to Operative Dentistry by Gordon B. Gray, Alaa H. Daud
Perfect your transferable dental clinical skills with this new and highly practical reference
A Practical Approach to Operative Dentistry delivers a thorough exploration of the theoretical and practical aspects of operative dentistry, followed by an illustrated step-by-step guide of common clinical procedures.
Designed to remind students of the key steps of a variety of operative procedures, it is heavily illustrated with over 400 images of clinical procedures and covers core topics such as:
- Instruments and matrices, isolation, dental charting, and the use of minimally invasive dentistry
- Treatment of intracoronal restorations, including pit and fissure caries, posterior approximal restorations, anterior restorations and restorations in the cervical third
- Exploration of extracoronal restorations, including gold restorations, porcelain fused to metal and ceramic crowns
A Practical Approach to Operative Dentistry is the perfect textbook for undergraduate dental students. It is also useful to dentistry graduates undertaking clinical rotations during their Dental Foundation Training, and overseas graduates preparing to take the Overseas Registration Examination (ORE) held by the General Dental Council, or the License in Dental Surgery (LDS) exam of the Royal College of Surgeons.
