Microscope-assisted precision (MAP) dentistry. A challenge for new knowledge

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to acquaint the dentist with the learning needs associated with the use of microscope-assisted precision dentistry (MAP) and identify certain concepts that will assist in the education process. Although the learning curve is considered to be lengthy and often difficult, the authors believe that the clinical benefits of MAP dentistry are well worth the necessary effort to achieve a level of competency with this methodology.
