Editorial Review
Book Description
Accurately diagnose oral pathology with the most comprehensive
collection of images available
Product Description
Be prepared to diagnose and manage any condition you encounter in your
practice! This bestselling reference gives you direct access to a
complete range of full-color clinical images and patient radiographs
that illustrate the differentiating characteristics of lesions in the
oral and maxillofacial region. Significantly revised and updated content
throughout this edition brings you the latest information on the
etiology, clinical features, histopathology, treatment, and prognosis of
each disease entity, as well as cutting-edge topics such as
bisphosphonate osteonecrosis, the oral complications associated with
methamphetamine abuse, solitary fibrous tumors, gene mutation, and
plasminogen deficiency.
Over 1,300 clinical photos and radiographs, most in full color,
facilitate identification and classification of lesions.
Current concepts of pathogenesis and disease management help you
understand the diseases that affect the oral and maxillofacial
structures, formulate an accurate diagnosis, and institute proper
treatment.
Each chapter is logically organized by body system or disease group,
enabling you to easily identify a specific condition.
A comprehensive appendix of differential diagnosis among oral and
maxillofacial disease processes helps you rule out invalid diagnoses.
The bibliography divided by topic presented at the end of each chapter
enables you to pursue supplemental literature.
Highly accomplished authors and contributors with a broad range of
clinical and classroom teaching experience provide well-balanced
coverage of the entire subject.
Chapter outlines at the beginning of each chapter allow immediate access
to specific topics.
Over 200 new illustrations have been added to this popular, visual
reference.
A new section on bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis thoroughly
explores and illustrates this recently identified complication resulting
from medications used to prevent bone loss in patients with multiple
myeloma, metastatic tumors, and osteoporosis.
A new section about the oral complications of methamphetamine abuse
details characteristic oral manifestations such as "meth mouth caries"
and factitial injuries.
Expanded coverage of oral piercings, intraoral tattoos, and other body
modifications includes unusual entities such as tongue splitting and
charm needles.
A new section on transient lingual papillitis sheds light on this common
cause of transitory tongue irritation.
A new section on solitary fibrous tumors familiarizes you with this
popular designation for certain benign fibrous neoplasms.
A new section on hypoplasminogenemia (ligneous conjunctivitis), or
plasminogen deficiency, includes images from a patient case that
illustrate the characteristic gingival lesions associated with this rare
but fascinating systemic condition.
A new section on hereditary mucoepithelial dysplasia describes the
characteristic oral manifestations that can lead you to accurately
diagnose this condition, potentially preventing a woman with this
disorder from having cytologically unusual cells misdiagnosed as
carcinoma on her cervical PAP smears.
A new section discusses the clinical and microscopic features of chronic
ulcerative stomatitis, an immune-mediated condition of the oral mucosa
that presents with erosive lesions and is often mistaken for lichen
planus.
The chapter on Forensic Dentistry has been thoroughly revised and
updated by leading forensic odontology author, Dr. Edward Herschaft, to
include the latest information on this fascinating topic.
Several chapters have been updated to include the most current knowledge
of specific gene mutations associated with hereditary oral disorders.
