Description
Cysts of the jaws and mouth are common lesions which are increasingly attracting interest with respect to their causes, pathogenesis, behaviour, diagnosis and management. This is evidenced by the extensive literature which continues to be published on this subject. This third edition of "Cysts of the Oral Regions" records current thought and practice and provides a fully referenced overview of the whole subject. The text starts with a classification which closely follows that of the World Health Organization. Thereafter, each of the entries is thoroughly described in a separate chapter, together with a review of the relevant literature, detailed clinical analysis, radiological features, pathogenesis, and pathology. A comprehensive bibliography appears at the end of the book.
