Dental Materials Science. Part 1
Dental Materials Science Part 1 is intended for dental students. The first part includes theory combined with very practical tips and laboratory exercise protocols. Topics from general materials science are presented, which cover the structure of materials and their properties - physical, optical, mechanical and technological. The protocols of laboratory exercises are intended for students to work during exercises and self-preparation at home. They specify the purpose and method of conducting the practical exercise; the tasks to be performed; necessary tools and equipment.
Although it is mainly aimed at 1st year students, the textbook can be of assistance to both upper year students and junior dental practitioners.
