- Summary:
- For specialist practitioners, researchers, and dental students, Schuurs (Academic Center for Dentistry, Amsterdam, the Netherlands) explains the pathology of hard dental tissues. He discusses developmental disturbances in the number of teeth, morphological anomalies, and structural abnormalities of enamel and dentine, then anomalies of eruption, caries, erosion, resorption, tooth wear and other signs of aging, tooth fractures and traumatic dentoalveolar injuries, and discoloration, as well as common congenital syndromes with dental anomalies.
