Textbook and Color Atlas of Traumatic Injuries to the Teeth encompasses the full scope of acute dental trauma, including all aspects of inter-disciplinary treatment.
Clinical treatment is put into context with coverage on prevention of traumatic injuries, cost-benefit considerations, and psycho-social aspects of dental trauma.
Prognosis is carefully discussed, and is presented along with information specially designed for dissemination to patients and third parties.
The role of established clinical therapies has been vigorously updated and new chapters have been added to reflect esthetic procedures including bleaching of discolored teeth, and the use of minimally invasive veneers.
Other topics new for consideration in this volume include: the optimization of pulp and periodontal healing, splinting of teeth, and the use of Mineral Trioxide Aggregate in endodontic interventions.
