Publisher's Synopsis
For a thorough understanding of both the art and science of endodontics, there is simply no better text than this new seventh edition of a classic. Students and practitioners will gain a better understanding of pulp development, structure and function, pathology, and microbiology, as well as instrumentation, diagnosis of pulpal disorders, skills important to cleaning and shaping, obturation, surgery, and retreatment. This comprehensive treatment requires a unique, 3-part approach: The Art of Endodontics, The Science of Endodontics, and Related Clinical Topics combine to cover root canal therapy in depth. The book's final chapter discusses the future of endodontics. New to the seventh edition, the book concludes with a section called Endodontic Challenge, which features over 400 multiple choice questions, many case based and illustrated, to test readers' knowledge of important endodontic principles and synthesize concepts that will improve diagnostic, treatment planning, and treatment skills.
