Summary:

"Gain a clear picture of oral biology and the formation and study of dental structures. Illustrated Dental Embryology, Histology, and Anatomy, Sixth 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." -- Elsevier's website.
