Description
First published over thirty years ago, this book has become the established introductory textbook for dental students. Carefully structured to provide a very wide range of information in appropriate depth, "Principles of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery" is particularly valued for its accessibility and reader-friendly style. The text is further expanded and clarified throughout by a large number of illustrations. The new fifth edition has been completely updated to include the established pattern of maxillofacial surgery within the essential roots of undergraduate dental education and to reflect advances in the speciality including implants, anxiety management and the management of traumatic injuries, tumours and facial deformities.
