Dental Anatomy: A Self-Instructional Program (10e)

This self-instructional text is well suited for the classroom or independent study. It teaches tooth anatomy/morphology and guides students through learning fundamental information concerning oral structures and tooth anatomy.

• Three dimensional drawings of the tooth in each section.

  • Increases students' ability to accurately identify which part of the tooth is being explained, thus improving transference of learned material to real-life situations. Ex.___

• Completely redrawn art— Includes a separate drawing highlighting each part of the tooth as it is explained.

  • Improves students' comprehension by enhancing how students learn the information and concepts taught in each frame. Ex.___

• A variety of examples throughout.

  • Provides students with solid, accurate examples that can easily apply to real-life situations. Ex.___

• End-of-chapter pedagogy— Includes chapter summaries, exercises and self-tests.

  • Encourages students to check their comprehension of material periodically and provide immediate reinforcement. Ex.___

• New author team—Includes Dr. Smith, the author of a new companion text for head and neck anatomy designed to complement this text.

  • Provides a fresh perspective and complete revision of content as well as pedagogy drawing on many years of teaching experience. Ex.___

• More information about classification of occlusion, contacts, spillways and embrasures (Ch. 1).

  • Further clarifies difficult concepts and provides practical application. Ex.___

• Eruption sequence presented as a bar chart.

  • Easier for students to learn from rather than memorizing the usual list. Ex.___
