Another addition is a chapter dedicated to the principles of endodontic treatment of traumatized teeth.

This allows the dentist to appreciate and compare the manifestations and treatment outcomes of typical trauma types.Key features include: Authors are international authorities on the subject; illustrated with radiographs and sophisticated, but clear color artwork; and, highly practical and accessible: documents the treatment process succinctly and step-by-step. This book is the ideal ready-reference on dental trauma for practitioners and students of clinical dentistry.
Review comments on the previous edition: 'Overall, this book is excellent and I believe would be an essential member of a dentist's library. It is the sort of book that can be quickly read, and information and guidance can be located easily when the need arises. The price makes the book very affordable and I wholeheartedly recommend it as an essential reference source for the general dentist and dental student' - "Australian Endodontic Journal".'The text, although short, is pithy and reads easily, and is supported by high quality illustrations, radiographs, and intra-oral photographs' - "European Journal of Orthodontics".
