Summary:
As the practice of dentistry has evolved, significant advances have been realized in the success and predictability of technical procedures, the efficacy of instrumentation, and the means by which information is distributed. Interactive CD-ROMs and videos that guide viewers through selected restorative techn iques are currently being developed as instructional tools for contemporary medical and dental professionals.

Through the use of advanced technology, this information can be accessed by any site that possesses an ISDN line, enabling licensed healthcare professionals from around the world to expand their knowledge and technical proficiency.
