Materials Science for Dentistry, Eleventh Edition, is a must-have resource for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in dentistry. This book provides fundamental coverage of the materials on which dentistry depends, covering the structure, mechanics, chemistry and physics that govern the behavior and performance of materials. Particular classes of materials include gypsum, polymers, acrylic, cements, waxes, ceramics and metals. Other chapters review surfaces, corrosion, mixing, casting, cutting and bonding, and mechanical testing. This updated edition, which includes substantial chapters on chemistry, has been extensively refined and reworked to provide the most useful content for a broad readership, from undergraduate students through to senior researchers and teachers. Accessibly written to provide explanations for behavior, formulation, clinical and laboratory instructions and procedures, there is no comparable resource for researchers, students, technicians, instructors and practitioners in the field of dentistry.
