Illustrated Dental Embryology, Histology, and Anatomy, 6th Edition, is the ideal introduction to one of the most foundational areas in the dental professions — understanding the development, cellular makeup, and physical anatomy of the head and neck regions. Written in a clear, reader-friendly style, this text makes it easy to understand both basic science and clinical applications, putting the content into the context of everyday dental practice. New to this edition is evidence-based research on processes of soft tissue regeneration, repair, and aging; challenging factors of inflammation and immune response; newer dental hard tissue remineralization and restorative treatments; and the latest orthodontic concerns. Plus, high-quality color renderings and clinical histographs and photomicrographs throughout the book truly bring the material to life.
- NEW! Evidence-based research thoroughly discusses processes of soft tissue regeneration, repair, and aging; challenging factors of inflammation and immune response; newer dental hard tissue remineralization and restorative treatments; and the latest orthodontic concerns.
- NEW! Updated clinical and microscopic photographs with exacting companion diagrams throughout help bring key concepts to life.
- NEW! Stronger emphasis on patient diversity facilitates more effective clinical practice.
- NEW! Quick-reference tables provide instant access to essential information.
- NEW! Discussions of the latest periodontal topics include biologic width, gingival phenotype, esthetic discussion, and the use of biologics such as platelet-rich fibrin.
- NEW! Expanded coverage of new insights includes programmed cell death, the future of stem cells, environmental toxicity, cytokine involvement, dry mouth and hypersensitivity treatments, and cone-beam CT diagnostics.
- Comprehensive coverage includes all the content needed for an introduction to the developmental, histologic, and anatomic foundations for the orofacial region.
- Helpful learning features in each chapter include key terms accompanied by phonetic pronunciations and a glossary.
- Clinical Considerations discussions relate common atypical to abnormal findings to everyday clinical general practice, as well as dental specialty practice.
- Learning tools on the companion Evolve website include chapter quizzes and review lists for upcoming competency examinations, plus fun gaming experiences.
- Expert authors share their expertise and offer valuable insights and guidance.
