Foreword by Jeffrey OkesonThis textbook presents a modern and comprehensive approach to restoring dental function while recognizing the broader complexity of the masticatory system. It guides clinicians in diagnosing and managing temporomandibular disorders and other orofacial pain conditions that may influence dental treatment. Emphasizing careful diagnosis, patient history, and evidence-based decision making, the book helps dentists avoid common misconceptions and sequence treatment appropriately. With practical strategies and up-to-date knowledge, it supports clinicians in achieving functional, esthetic, and patient-centered outcomes. An essential resource for dentists seeking a more holistic and scientifically grounded approach to occlusion and restorative care.ContentsChapter 1. Introduction/Decision-MakingChapter 2.
