Prefabricated Posts. From Conventional to Digital

Restoring endodontically treated teeth is undoubtedly a complex procedure. A sound knowledge of biomechanical and clinical principles, careful planning, and the selection of appropriate materials and restorative techniques is essential to achieve the best functional and esthetic outcomes. This concise and exquisitely illustrated book, based on the philosophy and clinical experience of its authors and on sound scientific evidence, is divided into 10 chapters in a didactic sequence to make it easier for dentists to apply the techniques in everyday practice. The focus is on preserving the heathy tooth structure as much as possible using both conventional and digital methodologies.
