Description
Description
Dental Adhesion and Adhesive Systems: Biology, Mechanics and Best Clinical Practice provides an overview of current research on materials, mechanics and clinical practice relating to dental adhesion, i.e. the adhesion or bonding to the natural substance of teeth, enamel and dentin. It examines the nature and strength of adhesion to dental hard tissues, properties of adhesive materials, causes and mechanisms of failure of the bonds, clinical techniques for bonding and newer applications for bonding such as bonding to the soft tissue. The book begins by examining evidence-based dentistry in relation to dental adhesion, resin-dentin and enamel bonding, degradation of resin-dentin bond; biofilm and caries, the new generation of adhesives; the science and mechanics of dental bonding; technologies for enamel and dentin bonding prediction dynamics of bonding and dentin; adhesion to root dentin; bond improvement; maximizing clinical outcomes for indirect restorations with adhesive dentistry
Key features
Key features
- Provides and up-to-date overview of dental adhesion research and best clinical practice
- Discusses both existing and potential new dental adhesion and bonding systems
- Although Dr Umer Daood has written the majority of chapters in the book, he has assembled an international collection of the world’s leading experts in the field to contribute chapters
- Discusses the key problem of the imperfectly bonded dentin-adhesive interface which is susceptible to hydrolytic degradation and bacterial and enzyme attack, and the impact of caries
