Book Description

In the 1970s Samuel Seltzer and I.B. Bender pioneered the concept of developing biologically based recommendations for the clinical practice of endodontics and restorative dentistry. This text represents the evolution of that book and of the philosophical principles on which it was based.

Best academic book in endo., January 11, 2009

This book is only for serious endodontists/postdoc residents who want to understand the scientific basis of endodontics. This body of work is beyond undergraduate students who will find it too science oriented and not enough clinically based. It’s a recommended read for any endodontist trying to attain cutting edge understanding of the science behind his field. Sam Seltzer was a pioneer and one of the smartest guys I knew.

Scientific basis for the practice of endodontics, March 4, 2010

There is no better publication on pulp and periapical biology and the application of evidence based principles into endodontic practice. In my opinion this should be required reading for residents in endodontic graduate programs.
