Description

During the first two years of dental training, students are required to gain knowledge of anatomy, histology and embryology. The Textbook of Oral and Maxillofacial Anatomy, Histology and Embryology provides in-depth discussion of each of these areas in three separate, dedicated sections.

Based on the curricular guidelines of dental councils and universities, this collection - with contributions from teachers of anatomy and oral biology - provides a complete understanding of the clinical applications in this area.

With detailed illustrations and line drawings,this student-friendly and exam-oriented volume is essential reading for undergraduates. It will also serve postgraduate students in dentistry and those pursuing courses in dental nursing and dental technology. With contributions from a team of international medical and dental teachers, this book provides a systematic and straightforward approach to the study of anatomical, histological and embryological aspects of the maxillofacial and oral structures. The text is illustrated with numerous colour and black and white photographs.

Readership: Primarily targeted to the undergraduate students of dentistry. Also of interst to students of dental hygiene, dental surgery assistance, and technology courses.
