Book Description

Clinical Problem Solving in Dentistry is designed to explain to dental students the processes of diagnosis and treatment planning, through consideration of clinical cases and problems which involve aspects of all the dental specialties. Dental students need to learn to cope with the fact that the problems of an individual patient do not necessarily fall into neat categories. They may require a combination of operative, periodontal and prosthodontic treatment - as the book is based around clinical cases and problems, it enables them to do this, and also prepares the student for their final exams and the real world of clinical practice.
