Scheid: Woelfel's Dental Anatomy: Its Relevance to Dentistry 8th edition

A market-leading dental anatomy textbook for dental, dental hygiene, and dental assisting students, Woelfel's Dental Anatomy focuses on anatomy of the human mouth and teeth, and is designed to help the student understand the relationship of the teeth to one another, and to the bones, muscles, nerves, and vessels associated with the teeth and face. This text does more than simply explain dental anatomy; it links the anatomy to clinical practice, giving readers a stronger and more practical understanding of tooth structure and function, morphology, anatomy, and terminology. Chapters have been revised and reorganized into three parts-Comparative Tooth Anatomy, Application of Tooth Anatomy in Dental Practice, and Anatomic Structures of the Oral Cavity-to make the material more accessible to dental hygiene programs.

The companion website offers Student Resources for an enhanced learning experience with an interactive image bank, image labeling exercises, and PowerPoint presentations. Instructor Resources include a test generator, an interactive image bank, PowerPoint presentations, and answers to the book's critical thinking questions.

Key Features

• NEW: Illustrations and ilustrations are full-color to reach the visual learner.
• Several pedagogical features to help students learn and retain the information, including a chapter topic list, learning objectives, new terms bolded as they are introduced, pronunciations, and summary tables.
• Learning Exercises help reinforce the topics presented. These exercises are presented within the body of each chapter at intervals where the authors feel an active learning experience would be helpful for you to understand and/or apply the topic.
• Review Questions with Answers: Many chapters or sections end with a series of review questions to test the learner's mastery of the objectives. These questions, in many cases, cover topics similar to those included on past dental and dental hygiene national examinations. For the convenience of quick and convenient feedback, the answers are presented immediately following the questions.
• Critical Thinking Questions: Most chapters end with Critical Thinking Questions so students can apply what they've learned in the chapter to answer more complex questions or exercises.
• Research Data: This text is unique in providing you with both original and reviewed research findings based on the study of thousands of teeth, casts, and mouths.
• Appendix of Comparative Dental Anatomy: This text's unique appendix is designed to help the learner visualize the many tooth similarities and differences that are often difficult to understand with words alone.

Liebgott: The Anatomical Basis of Dentistry 3rd Edition

Now in full color, The Anatomical Basis of Dentistry helps you master the essentials of gross anatomy! Complete, accurate coverage highlights the regions of the head and neck that are of clinical relevance. Core information provides a foundation of knowledge essential to providing a successful chairside experience for both you and the patient. Using a clear, accessible style, with practical Clinical Notes boxes, this book closely relates the basic science of applied anatomy to the clinical practice of dentistry.

Key Features

• A focus on core information specifically highlights the regions of the head and neck along with the abdomen and thorax, serving as a foundation for the other basic sciences and for subsequent clinical courses.
• Coverage of applied anatomy draws correlations between the basic science of anatomy and clinical practice of dentistry.
• General Concepts chapter includes anatomical terminology and provides a general description of each body system in preparation for the regional anatomy topics that follow.
• A regional approach reflects the order in which the regions are commonly taught, by showing structures representing several systems -- which parallels the manner in which structures are encountered in patients.
• Full-color cadaver dissection photos clearly depict the location of anatomic structures, showing anatomical details impossible to view in clinical examination.
• Chapters on limbs provide a more complete picture of the body, covering areas that may be possible sites for intravenous and intramuscular injections.
• Applied Anatomy chapter relates anatomy to the clinical practice of dentistry, covering topics such as the anatomy of local anesthesia, imaging (including intraoral, extraoral, and MRI), fractures of the face, and the spread of dental infection.
• Clinical Notes boxes relate basic science concepts to actual scenarios that may be encountered in clinical practice.
• Review questions in multiple-choice format help you assess your understanding and provide good preparation for the NBDE.

New to This Edition

• Full-color photos and drawings clearly demonstrate core concepts and reinforce important principles.
• New information on the back enhances your understanding of body systems with coverage of the surface features of the back, movements of the spine, and a new Clinical Notes box on back strain.
• New information on the neck includes the movements of the head and neck, and a new table detailing the muscles responsible for those movements.
• Added coverage of applied anatomy includes a new section with illustrations of Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), a new section on Alveolar Ridge Tomography, and more images of the TMJ.
• An Evolve website includes a 300-question test bank and image collection for instructors and a self-assessment exam for students.
