description With the increase in preventive and restorative dentistry, there is also an increase in the iatrogenic conditions that occur in modern dental practice. The goal of modern dentistry is to provide patients with a holistic solution by providing functional restoration.

Proper diagnosis and treatment planning helped restore a tooth that would have been lost.
