About this title

Review:

The editors and contributing authors have produced a text that goes beyond operative dentistry. This text would be excellent for dental students and would be an extraordinary reference text for the practicing restorative dentist. --Parag R. Kachalia, DDS, - Journal of Prosthodontics, November/December 2006

This book is very comprehensive, not only talking about intra-coronal restorations but cast restorations too. In addition to the technical side of operative dentistry, it manages to talk about patient assessment, treatment planning and the limitations of each treatment. This book is brilliant, comprehensive, and accurate. --The GDP, April 2010
