Handbook of Oral Pathology and Oral Medicine

Discover a concise overview of the most common oral diseases in a reader-friendly book

Handbook of Oral Pathology and Oral Medicine delivers a succinct overview of a range of oral diseases. The book contains up-to-date evidence-based information organized by clinical topic and supported by over 300 clinical, radiological, and microscopic images. Each chapter includes topics following universally respected curricula of oral pathology and oral medicine.

Divided into seven parts, it covers core topics such as pathology of teeth, pulp, and supporting structures, pathology of jawbones, pathology of the oral mucosa, pathology of the salivary glands, clinical presentation of mucosal disease, orofacial pain, and miscellaneous topics of clinical relevance.

Written for undergraduate dental students, dental hygienists and oral health therapists, Handbook of Oral Pathology and Oral Medicine is an ideal quick reference and is also useful to dental educators and practitioners.

S.R. Prabhu is Honorary Associate Professor of Oral Medicine at the School of Dentistry at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia. He is a Fellow of Dental Faculty of all four United Kingdom and Ireland based Royal Surgical Colleges. He has taught oral pathology and oral medicine in a number of dental schools internationally, and has authored numerous book chapters, papers and reviews, and edited books.
