Wheeler's Dental Anatomy, Physiology and Occlusion
by Major M. Ash
from Saunders
The updated 8th edition of this classic reference provides a visually-oriented presentation of dental macromorphology and evidence-based chronologies of the human dentitions, while reflecting definitive shifts in modern dental practice. New features include an enhanced reader-friendly approach, new color illustrations, and a greater emphasis on clinical applications. A new, interactive CD-ROM offers three-dimensional animations of masticatory movements - including tooth contact relationships and temporomandibular joint movements - that bring the text's illustrations to life. Plus, an interactive mock examination mimics the National Board exam for outstanding review and practice.
- Essential concepts of occlusion relevant to restorative dentistry are covered.
- Evidence-based chronologies of the human dentitions provide research standards for tooth development and eruption.
- Dimensions of teeth from all aspects are considered in relation to space problems and arch size.
- Discussion of bony supporting structures provides information necessary for oral surgery, periodontics, and dental implants.
- Detailed descriptions and illustrated morphologic features of usual/unusual teeth essential for learning biologic variation of tooth morphology.
- Radiographs and pulp chamber and canal morphology in sectioned teeth provide an excellent reference for root canal therapy.
- Clinically useful chronologies show the age of attainment to avoid damage to developing teeth.
- Age prediction chronologies can be used to assess the unknown age of a patient.
- Periodontal therapy is discussed in detail, outlining the relationship of tooth morphology to the periodontium.
- New lifelike color drawings of the right maxillary and mandibular permanent teeth from the mesial, occlusal, distal, lingual and buccal views are featured in the book and on the CD-ROM.
- CD-ROM teaches the evaluation of contours of simulated dental restorations in relation to ideal arch form using Quicktime Virtual Reality.
- An interactive 250 multiple choice question examination on the CD-ROM provides a thorough self-assessment tool.
- Expanded coverage of the development process of the primary and permanent dentitions related to diagnosing potential space problems and malocclusion.
- Thorough discussion of the evaluation of temporomandibular joint and muscle disorders including anatomical illustrations of the nerves and muscles of the head and neck region.
- Appendix of tooth trait categories reviews key information for students.

The Anatomical Basis of Dentistry
by Bernard Liebgott
from Mosby
THE ANATOMICAL BASIS OF DENTISTRY, 2/e, is a comprehensive textbook of gross anatomy tailored specifically for undergraduate dental students. Unlike most anatomy books, this text highlights those regions of the head and neck that are of clinical relevance to the dental student. It follows the curriculum of the course in gross anatomy that every dental student must complete. Therefore, chapters dealing with the abdomen, back, and thorax are included. New, expanded coverage of the limbs has leant itself to two brand new chapters: The Upper Limb and The Lower Limb. Correlations are drawn between the basic science of applied anatomy and the clinical practice of dentistry. Applied anatomy is included throughout the book and in a separate chapter to help students retain a clear picture when these structures are encountered later on in their clinical years. The art program has been completely reworked resulting in digitized illustrations of the highest quality, most in a striking two-color format. Also included are 149 pages appearing in full color, emphasizing important concepts and anatomy of the skull and regions of the head.
Head, Neck and Dental Anatomy
by Marjorie J. Short
from Delmar Cengage Learning
This comprehensive text presents head and neck anatomy pertaining dental auxiliaries in a clear concise manner. Both dental assistant and dental hygiene students will benefit from the thorough presentation of anatomy and the strong review of tooth morphology. To aid in the learning process, the text includes numerous upgraded illustrations to show the information, not just present students with a dry listing of detail. Review questions at the end of each chapter enable students to review concepts and prepare for class exams. One of the hallmarks of the text is the clear, concise presentation in a meaningful style to engage students and enable them to retain the content for subsequent courses.
Dental Anatomy: Its Relevance to Dentistry

Oral Anatomy, Histology and Embryology, 3E
by Berkovitz
from Mosby
Designed to provide dental students with a detailed introduction to oral anatomy, embryology, and histology, the New Edition of this highly regarded textbook gives dental students the information they need in a lavishly illustrated resource. Emphasizing student-friendly textbook features, the 3rd Edition has been rewritten to offer a specialized background that includes more relevant topics and new research in areas such as molecular biology, confocal microscopy, immunocytochemistry, and immunohistochemistry*while building on its excellent tradition of extensive, high-quality color photographs and illustrations. A new paperback format makes the book more convenient and accessible for easy reference to key topics in the classroom or any setting.
Spanish version of 2nd edition also available, ISBN: 84-8174-139-6
Anatomy for Dental Students
