Description: "Root canal treatment often presents the clinician with biological, anatomical, technical and instrumental challenges and problems that can seem difficult or even impossible to deal with successfully. Identification and successful management of such situations represent the main topics of this textbook. The nature and the background of problems frequently seen in daily endodontic practice are presented, measures for prevention are described, and techniques and instruments for clinical management are discussed critically and referenced by scientific literature. Case presentations from a number of colleagues are included, demonstrating successful management of clinical problems." "More than 800 figure and illustrations help the reader to obtain a good understanding of the nature and etiology of endodontic problems and the respective techniques of management. Each chapter includes selected references." "Problems in Endodontics offers a wealth of tips and treatment options for daily endodontic practice that will be helpful for the endodontic specialist as well as for the general dental practitioner."--BOOK JACKET.
