"The subject of occlusion has traditionally been very difficult to learn, understand, and manage. As a result, an unwanted mystique has been built around it that has intimidated a large part of the dental profession. It is now more important than ever that dental practitioners familiarise themselves with a subject that so intimately affects their daily professional lives. In dental schools, there is a shift from traditional teaching to more interactive methods. In classic didactic textbooks, readers are frequently seen as passive recipients of information, without any engagement in the learning process. Problem-based learning increases the effectiveness of delivering information and makes learning a more memorable experience for the reader. The book aims to enable readers to rebuild a solid foundation of knowledge of occlusion by providing practical, learnable, usable information and techniques which have been demonstrated in a practical and easy to understand style. Scenario-based cases will be presented and discussed with regards to good occlusal practice in simple and advanced restorative dentistry, and all current evidence-based practical concepts in the field of dental occlusion will be included to aid clinical practice"-- show more
