This textbook covers all aspects of materials science relevant to the practice of dentistry. It is aimed primarily at undergraduate dental students, although it will also be useful for practising dentists, dental technicians and dental assistants. The 9th edition has been extensively revised to include the many advances in dental materials and their use that have occurred during the past nine years.
John McCabe is Professor of Dental Materials Science and Angus Walls is Professor of Restorative Dentistry, both at the School of Dental Sciences, Newcastle University, UK.
