A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This text offers an authoritative account of general medical and surgical conditions as they apply to the practice of dentistry and oral healthcare. Now established as the standard reference on the subject, Medical Problems in Dentistry is essential for students learning for the first time or practitioners needing to keep up-to-date with their knowledge.

In this 6th edition, the content has been rewritten and refocused to place even stronger emphasis on the medical problems that directly influence dental practice. All content has been reviewed by a specialist Advisory Board to ensure complete accuracy and currency of information. Addition of many new images, 'key points boxes' and increased alphabetisation of entries further serve to make the book even easier to use and more relevant than ever.

Additional features include:

. New coverage of key areas of development in medicine including auto-inflammatory disorders, biological response modifiers, craniofacial transplantation, drug reactions, drug-resistant microbial infections, osteonecrosis and immune reconstitution syndrome
. New chapters on alternative and complementary medicine, health promotion, men's issues and occupational health
. New international and national guidelines, recent references and up-to-date websites

Medical Problems in Dentistry 6th edition is ideal for the whole dental team: students, general practitioners, hospital-based staff and candidates for postgraduate exams.
