New Books - April 2014

eBooks

Adhesion aspects in dentistry / Jukka P. Matinlinna and K.L. Mittal.
Leiden, 2009.


"So this unique book covering various ramifications of adhesion and adhesives in the broad domain of dentistry provides an important source of information. Among the topics covered include testing aspects of dental materials, dentin bonding, restorations, and adhesion promotion. This book, containing bountiful information, reflects the cumulative wisdom of many world-renowned researchers and should be of interest to anyone involved in any aspects of dentistry. We further hope this book will serve as a fountainhead for new research ideas and new application vistas will emerge as new adhesive materials and techniques become available." Text from publisher description
