Initiated by the FDI Commission on Dental Products, this volume examines the current state of the science of a wide range of dental materials, notes significant accomplishments and suggests future research objectives. The eight papers have each been prepared by experts in the field and then revised and updated in the light of comments from distinguished reviewers. They provide an up-to-date state-of-the-science report for all concerned with materials which help to restore function impaired through loss of teeth and will also serve as a basis for continued improvement in products and techniques which will improve the oral health of all people.
