Key Features
Presents a unique, integrative approach to oral dental science by
covering aspects of gross anatomy, tooth morphology, radiology, oral
histology and embryology in one volume
Features approximately 1100 high-quality colour images, one quarter of
which are previously unpublished
Contains useful ‘clinical application’ boxes to clearly show relevance
of subject area to routine dental practice
New to this Edition
Completely revised section on tooth morphology with improved specimens
and digital photography
Contains a new chapter on the effects of ageing to highlight the
important changes taking place in the oro-dental tissues in an
increasingly ageing population
New design aids learning by the inclusion of clearer diagrams and high
quality, larger format digital images
