The book includes more than eight hundred high-resolution images, illustrations, and tables. Tools and instruments are explained as well as the common terms used in operative dentistry. Simulating systems for caries lesions and their corresponding restorative treatments are shown in the phantom lab. Radiographic images and clinical photos are included to help students make the correct caries lesions diagnosis. From easy procedures, such as practical step-by-step rubber dam techniques to retainer application, and teeth preparation and correspondent restorations with amalgam or composite restoration, this book is an important resource for prospective dentists and those new to the field.
Its November 2001. A university in dire straits, financially bankrupt burdening a debt in excess of R100-million, a disillusioned and demoralised staff complement still reeling from the trauma of retrenchments, coupled with an academic project facing collapse as student numbers dwindle by a third to less than 10 000. Is there a future for such an institution, described by some as a ‘basket case’ with very bleak prospects of survival? This was the landscape that confronted the newly-appointed Vice-Chancellor and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the University of the Western Cape. Fast forward to December 2014. The CEO retires from office, bestowing upon his successor a financially sound institution with a flourishing academic project, recording unprecedented achievements, enriching the lives of more than 20 000 students, and widely acknowledged as a research-led university. This book narrates how visionary leadership with the steadfast belief that your past does not determine your future, galvanised an entire organisation into believing that a better outcome was indeed achievable, and the will to move forward as a collective with a redefined purpose and commitment to achieve that which was once deemed impossible.
