Summary:

Shillingburg (fixed prosthodontics, U. of Oklahoma) introduces new and experienced practitioners and undergraduate and graduate students to restorative dentistry dealing with fixed partial dentures and cast metal, metal-ceramic, and all-ceramic restorations. Chapters cover the fundamentals of treatment planning, occlusion, and tooth preparation, and specific techniques and instruments, as well as alternative techniques when multiple ones exist. This edition adds information on the increased use of new cements, new packaging and dispensing equipment for the use of impression materials, and changes in the management of soft tissues for impression making. New articulators, facebows, and concepts of occlusion, as well as making removable dies are covered, and chapters on cosmetic restorations have been expanded. The design of resin-bonded fixed partial dentures has been moved to the chapters on partial coverage restorations. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
