Practical reference book in the emerging field of bioceramics in endodontics, focusing on overall makeup and relevant clinical cases Bioceramics in Clinical Endodontics is a highly unique resource that blends together detailed information on the physico-chemical and biological properties of bioceramics with the clinical application of bioceramic in endodontics, exploring the history and chemistry of bioceramics, their mechanical properties and advantages over other materials, and clinical cases with high-definition pictures and videos demonstrating their use across a wide variety of applications. Written by highly qualified authors with significant experience in the field, Bioceramics in Clinical Endodontics includes information on: * Material characteristics of bioceramics that Endodontists/Clinicians should be aware of. * Evidence based decisions between coneless and coned obturations, and healing of periapical lesions over a recall period of 3-5 years * Endodontic treatment of patients using bioceramic sealers * Endodontic mishaps treated with bioceramic repair material * Evidence based approach for apexification using bioceramics * Use of bioceramics as a root end filling material and foundational guidelines to finding new applications for bioceramics * Comparison of Bioceramics with gold standard endodontic materials A highly unique exploration into the subject, Bioceramics in Clinical Endodontics provides an essential core overview of the field of bioceramics in endodontics and related applications, making it a must-have resource for dental practitioners, along with undergraduate and postgraduate students in endodontics and other related programs of study.
