This outstanding book covers all areas of oral histology and embryology pertinent to clinical dental practice. Introductory material includes

to birth. It also covers developmental problems such as cleft lip and palate, specific phases of tooth development, and biofilm substances
that form on the surface of teeth. New Clinical Comments boxes and Consider the Patient scenarios help readers apply key concepts to
actual practice.
