Abstract
|
:
|
Human Diseases is now often a mandatory component of training for dentists, and forms an important part in many undergraduate and professional exams. However, the amount of material to master can be overwhelming for students who need a manageable overview before they can apply the details learnt. Providing a broad base in key areas, this text allows readers to rapidly acquire an understanding of the common and important acute and chronic diseases that dentists and dental students may encounter in their patients. The authors have significant experience in teaching the topics, and the text is carefully presented to highlight the key facts a reader should take from each chapter. An essential revision guide for a range of audiences, this book will also be invaluable to medical students, house officers, GPs, nurses, and paramedics.
