Description
Today's dental curriculum has moved away from dividing subjects into separate blocks. The emphasis now is on students understanding the interrelation between the anatomy, physiology and biochemistry of the oral facial complex. "Oral Bioscience" is a textbook of oral biology for dental students that matches this need, covering the biochemistry, physiology and molecular biology of the mouth.
