Forty-five international academics and practitioners contribute 23 chapters to a clinical resource for dental practitioners and students which provides an up-to-date description of all major aspects of the science and practice of modern oral medicine. Featuring chapters on the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of patients, the text has been extensively revised throughout. Several chapters have been entirely rewritten by new authors, including those on red and white lesions, pigmented lesions, neuromuscular diseases, renal disease, hematologic disease, and immunology. Others have been extensively rewritten, including those on ulcerative, vesicular and bullous lesions, benign tumors, oral cancer, orofacial pain syndromes, temporomandibular disorders, and salivary diseases. Also included are new chapters on pharmacotherapeutics, headache, and genetic diseases. Illustrated throughout with full-color photographs, and diagrams. The accompanying CD-ROM contains case studies and an expanded bibliography. Annotation c2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
