Notes On Dental Anatomy And Dental Histology

A must have title for Dentak Students on Oral anatomy, histology, physiology and tooth morphology.

Master the basics of Dental Histology, Anatomy, Embryology and Physiology. Fundamentals of Oral Anatomy, Physiology and Histology comprises of four units: Oral Histology, Oral Anatomy, General Embryology and Oral Physiology sections elaborating essential concepts in altogether 38 chapters. Oral Histology emphasizes on the morphology and variation of teeth as a part of dental anatomy. The dental histology section describes the development of teeth and associated tissues including enamel, dentin, pulp, cementum and periodontal ligament. Salivary glands, oral mucosa, maxillary sinus, temporomandibular joint and tissue preparation comprise the rest of the second unit, Oral Anatomy. The third unit of Embryology explains the development of the oral and paraoral structures with details of general embryology from fertilization onwards. Physiology is the fourth unit which constitutes important topics related to year one of dentistry that include mastication, chewing cycle, saliva and calcium phosphorous metabolism. - Conforms to the syllabi prescribed by DCI - Offers an easy-to-follow format for each chapter with numerous tables, flowcharts, photos, and simple neatly labelled line diagrams and histomicrographs - Summarizes important take away points under Synopsis in each chapter - Provided Review Questions in each chapter for self-appraisal - Hand drawn histology diagrams

A total of 5 chapters have been added , which will add to knowledge base and understanding of students:- Three chapters in Tooth Morphology section, Evolution of Teeth and Comparative Dental Anatomy, Guidelines for Drawing Tooth Morphology Diagrams, and Functional Occlusion and Malocclusion, which will help students in systematic understanding of morphological development of teeth.- One chapter in Oral Histology section, Introduction to Oral Histology, has been added to abreast students with the basic knowledge of cell structure which forms the basics of histological study.- One chapter in Physiology section, Somatosensory System, has been added, that will update the knowledge of the students.Each chapter opens with an Overview to sensitize students with the content of the chapter .Applied aspect has been added in each chapter to enhance the clinical understanding of the subject.Mind Maps have been added at the end of each chapter, which highlight the important topics of the chapter to facilitate easy learning .Essentials of the chapters in a tabular form for easy retention and recall have been given on Lippincott Gurukul site.

Featuring detailed illustrations and full-color photographs, Illustrated Dental Embryology, Histology, and Anatomy, 3rd Edition, provides a complete look at dental anatomy, combined with dental embryology and histology and a review of dental structures. A clear, reader-friendly writing style helps you understand both basic science and clinical applications, putting the material into the context of everyday dental practice. Going beyond an introduction to anatomy, this book also covers developmental and cellular information in depth. Color photomicrographs make it easy to discern microscopic structures. Expert authors Mary Bath-Balogh and Margaret Fehrenbach provide an essential background in oral biology for dental hygiene and dental assisting students, including excellent preparation for the National Board Dental Hygiene Examination (NBDHE). Comprehensive coverage includes all the content needed for an introduction to the developmental, histological, and anatomical foundations of oral health. High-quality anatomical illustrations and full-color clinical and microscopic photographs enhance your understanding. An approachable writing style makes it easy to grasp and learn to apply the material. A logical organization separates the book into four units for easier understanding: (1) an introduction to dental structures, (2) dental embryology, (3) dental histology, and (4) dental anatomy. Summary tables and boxes provide quick, easy-to-read summaries of concepts and procedures and serve as useful review and study tools. Clinical Considerations boxes relate abstract-seeming biological concepts to everyday clinical practice. Learning outcomes at the beginning of each chapter clearly identify the information you are expected to absorb. Key terms open each chapter, accompanied by phonetic pronunciations, and are highlighted within the text A glossary provides a quick and handy way to look up terminology. A bibliography lists resource citations for further research and study. Student resources on the companion Evolve website enhance learning with practice quizzes including rationales and page-number references, case studies, a histology matching game, review/assessment questions, tooth identification exercises, and WebLinks to related sites. Updated and expanded evidence-based coverage includes topics such as caries risk, fetal alcohol syndrome, periodontal disease, thyroid hormones and disease, stem cells and dental pulp, and developmental defects associated with specific diseases and conditions. NEW color illustrations and photomicrographs add detail and enhance comprehension. NEW practice exercises on the companion Evolve website include quizzes containing 200 self-test questions with instant feedback to help you prepare for examinations.
