Pitt Ford´s Problem-Based Learning in Endodontology combines the theory and
practice of endodontics, providing the reader with information that is both
clinically relevant to everyday practice and also evidence based. It includes a
wealth of cases that span topics such as the maintenance of a vital pulp, root
canal treatment, surgical endodontics and trauma. Each case is accompanied by
full colour photographs and/or radiographs that illustrate the key stages in
diagnosis, treatment planning, treatment and prognosis. In addition, the
detailed commentary provides information on viable alternative treatment
strategies, rationale (biologic considerations) for the treatment described,
evaluation of the current evidence for/against the course of treatment and
finally the prognosis. The book allows the reader to apply their existing
knowledge to a range of clinical scenarios and to gain new knowledge and apply
it to further clinical situations. In addition the reader will be encouraged to
transfer knowledge and diagnostic skills from one problem to another and guided
to improve their self-directed learning and reflective skills. * Over 60
