A fundamental knowledge and understanding of dental materials is an absolute requisite to performing optimal dental care. This tenet is true not only for general dentists, but also for specialists alike. It is true not only for the developing dental student, but also for the practicing dentist. It is clearly evident that the authors of Dental Biomaterials have both an in-depth knowledge of dental materials and a fundamental appreciation for the importance of this information in contemporary clinical dentistry. Owing to the broad range of expertise of the authors, this textbook distinguishes itself from most dental materials texts by its remarkable ability to address a myriad of dental materials in the context of actual clinical applications. Emphasizing the clinical significance of dental materials is an obvious and conspicuous goal of this text that pervades the entire content of its pages. In fact, to that end, the authors notably include numerous highlighted sections entitled "Dental Significance" throughout the chapters to underscore the clinical importance of the subject matter. This approach is exceptionally effective at fostering a basic understanding of dental materials for the dental student. It piques the interest without stifling the student with abstract concepts. This text also is a valuable and reliable resource for the practicing dentist.
