Product Overview
The contents of this book can be compared to an advanced postgraduate course in ceramic technology for dentists and laboratory technicians. Internationally known clinicians and researchers give fresh insights to the state of the art and set forth new, well-supported theories. The reader will find authoritative statements on the composition of porcelain, how it can be strengthened, why it breaks, the problems of porcelain bonding, and the cause of failure. Design of preparations and metal substructures is critically analyzed and modern dental alloys for porcelain bonding is assessed. Many brilliantly colored illustrations show the high standard of esthetics now obtainable.
