Preface

      Problem solving in dentistry has to be developed as an innate art because it is used routinely by clinicians. This art needs to be developed as an undergraduate student for clinical practice as well as for diagnostic purposes.

      The purpose of this book is to help students reorganise factual knowledge in their mind. Rather than compartmentalising preclinical sciences into subject matter, e.g. anatomy, oral biology, biochemistry, pathology, and material science, this book aims to integrate knowledge and produce links between the areas that can be used in a practical setting.

      While this book acts as a core text for teaching clinical skills to dental undergraduate students, it may also be useful for those practicing or teaching dentistry or in preparation for practical professional examinations, such as the Overseas Registration Exam and the Licence in Dental Surgery.

      We would like to thank those who have contributed pictures for this book and have reviewed the manuscript and made useful suggestions.

      We would like to express our gratitude to Philip Sellen, Joseph Green, and Chris Mills for their assistance with the photography and videos in this book.

      This book could not have been written without the encouragement of a number of people, including Professors Robert Paterson and Andrew Watts for their continued support over many years and for some pictures that are reproduced in this book.

      The time involved in writing this book would not have been possible without the understanding and support of family and friends.
