Summary: Esthetic dentistry is a global phenomenon that continues to grow and expand. To practise successful esthetic dentistry, practitioners must understand the art and science of the discipline and be up to date and competent in the use of modern materials and techniques. In addition, the successful practice of esthetic dentistry requires good communication skills, empathy with the esthetic concerns expressed by patients, and the ability to build a good rapport between the patient and the various members of the dental team. Patients contemplating changes to their dental appearance, in particular their smile, wish to have their treatment provided by a practitioner they can trust, in an environment that they find reassuring and that gives them confidence. The present book, the first in a carefully planned series on the state of the art of esthetic dentistry, is an important foundation on which to build the knowledge and understanding required to practise effective, patient-pleasing, minimal intervention esthetic dentistry. If you do not know the difference between esthetic and cosmetic dentistry, need to know how to carry out a comprehensive examination and assessment of a patient seeking esthetic dental care, harbour uncertainties about the different approaches to enhancing dental attractiveness and about related ethical considerations, and have unanswered questions in respect to the application of contemporary materials and techniques in esthetic dentistry, then this book will be of great value to you. The highly regarded international team of contributors to this book, who individually and collectively have considerable knowledge and expertise in the field of esthetic dentistry, have adhered strictly to the brief to deal, succinctly but comprehensively, with their allocated subject in a text that is engaging and pleasing to read. It has been a pleasure and an honour to edit and contribute to this book, which is intended to be of immediate practical relevance to students and practitioners alike – a book for everyone engaged in the modern practice of dentistry.
