Hey Folks,

Does anyone have a "compiled" list of dental materials with their clinical uses/relevance? I feel like my school SEVERELY underprepared me for the clinical relevance of various materials (bases, liners, glass ionomer uses, etc.) and focused far to heavily on the scientific properties of each. Now that I'm in clinic I know the step-wise sequence of doing things, but god forbid someone ask me WHY I'm doing it!
