Pitt Ford''s Problem-Based Learning in Endodontology

Informationen zum Autor Shanon Patel is a specialist in endodontics; his time is divided between working in specialist referral practice in London, and teaching in the Endodontic Postgraduate Unit at King's College London Dental Institute where he is involved in the training of future specialists. He has published over 20 papers in peer reviewed scientific journals, written 2 book chapters, co-authored the textbook Principles of Endodontics and is completing a PhD assessing the applications of Cone Beam CT in endodontics. Henry F Duncan is a lecturer and consultant in endodontics at Dublin Dental University Hospital, Trinity College Dublin coordinating teaching, clinical delivery of treatment and research in endodontics. He has published extensively and is currently undergoing a PhD assessing the influence of epigenetics and bio-inductive materials on vital pulp treatment. Klappentext 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.

Report

"It would be of great benefit to those preparing forpostgraduate examinations, such as MFDS, with its emphasis onproblem posing and clinical management and its purposeful omissionof exhaustive detail surrounding the methodology of basicorthograde root canal treatment. An exceedingly supportivetext." ( VVT Magazine , 1 March 2012)

"These minor criticisms should not deter the student ofendodontology from purchasing this latest addition to theendodontic literature as it is certainly a departure from thestandard textbook format which presents the study of endodontics ina new and easily read "take- home- message" light. A worthwhilepurchase which will not leave the reader disappointed but ratherlooking forward to the next edition which I am sure won t be toolong before it is at the publisher!." (Sydney Dental Hospital,2011) "The problem-based learning approach lends itself brilliantlyto the field of endodontology in this highly palatable contemporarytext." (British Dental Journal, 25 November 2011)
