Phillips’ Science of Dental Materials 12th Edition

Phillips' Science of Dental Materials 12e

Last edition Elsevier The 11th edition of this leading reference is an outstanding, scientifically based source of information in the field of dental materials science. It presents up-to-date information on materials that are used in the dental office and laboratory every day, emphasizing practical, clinical use, as well as the physical, chemical, and biological properties of materials. Extensive new clinical photographs in this edition illustrate the topics, and color plates are integrated close to related concepts as they’re discussed in each chapter. A new glossary of key terms found at the beginning of every chapter defines terms in the appropriate context of the chapter’s discussion. Also in this edition, critical thinking questions throughout the book stimulate the readers’ curiosity on specific topics, test their existing knowledge, and heighten their awareness of important or controversial subjects.
