• Video clips and case studies demonstrate key procedures such as palpation of the masseter muscle, introsseous anesthesia with the X-tip system, dentin hypersensitivity, and more.
• Diverse and respected contributor pool includes experts from many national- and international-based dental education programs.
• NEW! Updated content and new images incorporate the most recent developments in research and clinical endodontic techniques.
• NEW! Additional topics cover pulp biology, pathobiology, diagnosis, treatment planning, pain control, isolation, access, cleaning and shaping, obturation, restoration, assessment of outcomes, emergencies and surgery. Each online topic comes with assigned reading lists, a PowerPoint lecture, written lesson objectives, and example exam questions.
• NEW! Compliance with theCommission on Dental Accreditation Curriculum ensures that the needs of all dental programs are met.
• NEW! Reorganized sections now divide chapters by those covering clinical endodontics, those covering the biological basis of endodontics, and chapters which detail endodontics in private practice to make content easier for both clinicians and students to navigate.
• NEW! Condensed chapters remove unnecessary duplication of content across the text and make the physical text lighter and easier to use.
