"Clinical Outline of Oral Pathology, Third Edition" integrates the precepts of basic oral pathology, oral radiology and oral medicine. It assists in constructing a differential diagnosis, arriving at a definitive diagnosis and providing appropriate management and treatment. Diseases of the oral cavity have been categorised according to presenting signs and symptoms. Chapters include lesions associated with AIDS or HIV seropositivity for up-to-the-minute coverage. The primary objective of this text is the development of an approach to the patient, providing the student with a protocol for developing a differential diagnosis, evaluating patient responses and clinical signs so as to limit the differential and ultimately securing a definitive diagnosis so that a treatment plan can be generated.

The new edition of this fundamental text covers basic, "need to know" topics in endodontics, written at a level that's ideal for both the undergraduate dental student as well as the practitioner. The book's unique approach includes detailed coverage of the basic sciences and separate chapters on practical topics such as, referral, patient education, procedural accidents, and radiography.

"Restorative Dental Materials" provides thorough, up-to-date coverage of the latest dental materials and backs this with fundamental information needed to correctly use dental materials, in the clinic and dental laboratory. A problem-solving approach is emphasized throughout this book and it incorporates case studies throughout to illustrate concepts in the chapters. At the end of each chapter, students have the opportunity to work through selected problems and verify their solutions. This edition also features major revisions of core concepts such as cements, esthetic materials, and bonding, as well as new chapters on preventive materials and impression materials.
