Oral Diagnosis, Oral Medicine, and Treatment Planning

A textbook primarily for undergraduate dental students, explaining how to recognize the clinical presentations of common oral lesions and their management. This revised edition is structured to begin with the earliest contact with a patient, through history taking, various examination procedures, interpreting the clinical and laboratory findings, and formulating treatment. A new section expands the discussions of data acquisition, with ten additional chapters covering each organ system in detail. The illustrations are all in b&w but a companion volume, A Color Atlas of Common Oral Lesions illustrates the oral lesions in color. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
