First published in 1944, Orban's Oral Histology and Embryology has become the classic text for successive generations of dental students. This thirteenth edition, while retaining the same fundamentals and lucid writing style, reflects upon the recent advances and latest curriculum offered in Indian universities. New to this Edition - All chapters have been extensively revised and updated - Incorporates Summary and Review Questions at the end of each chapter for the benefit of the students - All line illustrations have been modified and poor photographs have been replaced with improved ones for better understanding of the subject - New chapter on Lymphoid Tissue and Lymphatics in Orofacial Region - Preparation of Specimens for Histologic Study upgraded as a chapter Salient Features - Incorporates all relevant changes especially in the field of molecular biology - Discusses molecular biological aspects of oral tissues - Emphasizes clinical relevance of oral histological aspects
Master the basics of Dental Histology, Anatomy, Embryology and Physiology. Fundamentals of Oral Anatomy, Physiology and Histology comprises of four units: Oral Histology, Oral Anatomy, General Embryology and Oral Physiology sections elaborating essential concepts in altogether 38 chapters. Oral Histology emphasizes on the morphology and variation of teeth as a part of dental anatomy. The dental histology section describes the development of teeth and associated tissues including enamel, dentin, pulp, cementum and periodontal ligament. Salivary glands, oral mucosa, maxillary sinus, temporomandibular joint and tissue preparation comprise the rest of the second unit, Oral Anatomy. The third unit of Embryology explains the development of the oral and paraoral structures with details of general embryology from fertilization onwards. Physiology is the fourth unit which constitutes important topics related to year one of dentistry that include mastication, chewing cycle, saliva and calcium phosphorous metabolism. - Conforms to the syllabi prescribed by DCI - Offers an easy-to-follow format for each chapter with numerous tables, flowcharts, photos, and simple neatly labelled line diagrams and histomicrographs - Summarizes important take away points under Synopsis in each chapter - Provided Review Questions in each chapter for self-appraisal - Hand drawn histology diagrams
ESSENTIALS OF ORAL HISTOLOGY AND EMBRYOLOGY forms the foundation for everything students need to know about dental anatomy. It's divided into sixteen chapters which include discussions of cells, tissue and organ biology; development of the orofacial region; the formation, eruption, and exfoliation of teeth; structure and function of teeth; structure of supporting tissues; and the soft tissues of the oral area. * Encompasses histologic and embryologic information with specific considerations of the latest clinical connotations. * Features self-evaluation questions at the end of each chapter, so students can test their knowledge of material. * Contains more than 480 superb full-color illustrations, including low magnification light and high magnification electron microscopic photographs. * Includes several tables and boxes throughout text to highlight and facilitate further comprehension of material.
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
A total of 5 chapters have been added , which will add to knowledge base and understanding of students:- Three chapters in Tooth Morphology section, Evolution of Teeth and Comparative Dental Anatomy, Guidelines for Drawing Tooth Morphology Diagrams, and Functional Occlusion and Malocclusion, which will help students in systematic understanding of morphological development of teeth.- One chapter in Oral Histology section, Introduction to Oral Histology, has been added to abreast students with the basic knowledge of cell structure which forms the basics of histological study.- One chapter in Physiology section, Somatosensory System, has been added, that will update the knowledge of the students.Each chapter opens with an Overview to sensitize students with the content of the chapter .Applied aspect has been added in each chapter to enhance the clinical understanding of the subject.Mind Maps have been added at the end of each chapter, which highlight the important topics of the chapter to facilitate easy learning .Essentials of the chapters in a tabular form for easy retention and recall have been given on Lippincott Gurukul site.
Essentials of Oral Histology and Embryology: A Clinical Approach, 5th Edition uses a patient-centered approach in coveringto help dental professionals build a strong foundation in oral biology and basic science for dental professionals. It provides a clear understanding explanations of the anatomy of oral and facial tissues — and of normal and abnormal orofacial development — so that you can provide effective oral health care for all patients with abnormalities. In addition to the stages of tooth development, it covers eruption and shedding of teeth, plus the parts of teeth – including enamel, dentin, dental pulp, and cementum. Written by Daniel J. Chiego Jr., a noted dental educator and researcher, this book helps you succeed in the classroom and in clinical practice. - Cutting-edge content provides essential knowledge of the basics of oral biology, with a focus on clinical application. - Hundreds of high-quality illustrations include histographs, micrographs, and clinical photos depicting various stages of the development of oral structures. - Clinical Comment and Consider the Patient boxes help you apply scientific information to clinical practice and patient care by includingwith clinical tips, points of interest, and patient situations. - Self-evaluation questions and practice quizzes help you review for classroom and national board exams. - Quandaries in Science boxes explore the philosophical and scientific dilemmas associated with head and neck embryology and histology. - Learning objectives and kKey Vocabulary terms are listed at the beginning of each chapterhighlighted in text discussions and defined in a back-of-book glossary. - Suggested readings at the end of each chapter make it easy to look upprovide easy access to classic and new research studies. - NEW content includes biofilm and its association with systemic disease, the causes of TMJ, clinical applications with dental pulp, new enamel proteins, synthetic oral mucosa, and more. - NEW full-color illustrations, micrographs, and histographs are addedsupplement content narrative throughout to help improve comprehension. - NEW!
