Blurb

Supra–Gingival Minimally Invasive Dentistry: A Healthier Approach to Esthetic Restorations provides a real–world approach to healthier supra–gingival minimally invasive restorations, as an alternative to more invasive mechanically retained restorations, such as full crowns. With an emphasis on diagnosis, meticulous treatment planning, material selection, and technique, this book presents a thoughtful, everyday approach to providing healthier and more predictable esthetic results. Embracing the desire to provide more minimally invasive and conservative treatment for patients, this book demonstrates the importance of a thorough understanding and appreciation of the consequences of the choices for restoring anterior and posterior teeth, leading to healthy, beautiful, and functional treatment results for the patient.

Supra–Gingival Minimally Invasive Dentistry begins with a discussion of the hidden and sometimes subconscious reasons why crowns continue to be the most popular indirect restoration in dentistry and why supra–gingival minimally invasive restorations are a better choice. The book then goes on to cover the latest knowledge on adhesive dentistry and porcelain and composite restorative materials, followed by esthetic diagnosis and treatment planning, anterior esthetic indirect restorations, posterior esthetic indirect restorations, and longevity through management of occlusal forces and avoidance and management of complications and failures. This uniquely comprehensive book on a useful and popular topic will be enthusiastically received among practicing dentists and students of dentistry seeking to improve themselves and their patients experience.
