Description
Now in full-color, the thoroughly revised 3rd edition of Illustrated Anatomy of the Head and Neck presents comprehensive coverage of all
the information needed in the study of head and neck anatomy. It presents an understanding of anatomical parts and focal points for injection
sites that are essential in the practice of dentistry, dental hygiene, and dental assisting. Special emphasis is placed on such topics
as anatomy of the temporomandibular joint, the spread of dental infection, and the anatomical basis of local anesthesia for pain control.
Also includes flashcards for students who want to test their knowledge of basic anatomy and a new Evolve website offers a variety of
study materials.
