A textbook primarily for undergraduate and postgraduate clinicians, focusing on the treatment planning, design theory, indications, contraindications, and clinical techniques for crowns, fixed bridges, and splints. It aims to explain the rationale ('why') behind restorative procedures rather than just the technical execution, covering components, planning, clinical procedures, failures, and repairs.
This book helps dentists, prosthodontists, and students form and organize their thinking and formulate correct diagnoses and therapies that start with appropriate treatment planning.
