Formerly the titled Textbook of Dental Pharmacology and Thearapeutics, a new team of authors has extensively revised this successful text, incorporating the many advances in this field over the last few years. In 27 chapters, this book comprehensively covers both the basic and applied pharmacology required in modern dental courses, emphasising those topics which are particularly relevant to dental practice. With new key fact boxes, clinical cases and further reading, this new edition will be easier and more fun to use for the dental student.
