Phillips' Science of Dental Materials, 12th Edition, is a reference that examines the physical, chemical, and biological properties of materials used in the dental office and laboratory. Authored by Kenneth J. Anusavice, the text emphasizes clinical use alongside basic science principles.
The volume is organized into four main parts: general classes and properties of dental materials, auxiliary dental materials, direct restorative materials, and indirect restorative materials. Topics address fundamental solid properties, impression materials, direct composites, and restorative ceramics.
By balancing materials science with practical manipulation, the reference connects technical knowledge across dentistry and dental laboratory work, emphasizing biocompatibility and material safety.
