This textbook provides an extensive examination of oral histology and oral histopathology. It systematically addresses the microscopic characteristics of normal oral structures alongside the cellular alterations associated with pathological conditions. Essential insights are included regarding clinically diagnosed and biopsied samples of oral lesions, as well as the underlying mechanisms that drive the pathological processes.
The text is organized into three distinct sections: Part One, Oral Histology, establishes a foundational understanding of the structural and developmental aspects of various oral tissues. Part Two, Oral Histopathology, offers a detailed classification of diseases while elucidating the significant microscopic features associated with each. Finally, Part Three, Investigative Oral Pathology, serves to equip students and clinicians with knowledge about the methodologies employed in the microscopic diagnosis of oral diseases.
This comprehensive approach to oral histology and histopathology proves beneficial for both students and clinicians engaged in fields such as oral pathology, oral surgery, special needs dentistry, and oral health therapy. Furthermore, it fulfills the academic requirements of preclinical and clinical dentistry students.
