Dental Materials Science: Lectures & Laboratory Classes Notes. Part 2

This is the new edition of the second part of the English language edition designed for first-year students majoring in “Dental Medicine”.

The book includes two main sections – "Lecture notes" and "Laboratory classes reports". Information concerning the structure and properties of the dental materials is published in the first section where theory and practice are skillfully combined. The second section presents graphically separate laboratory classes reports which are included in the curriculum. They are designed for the students' self-study and to facilitate their learning at the Faculty of Dental Medicine and at home.
