Oral Medicine contains a brillant collection of colour pictures, augmented by appropriate discussion. Both common and unusual afflictions of the oral cavity are described. Sections on clinical manifestations, histologic findings, differential diagnosis, and treatment, complemented by significant references, have been written by selected authorities in the field. Dermatologists, dentists, and even primary care physicians will find this volume to be indispensable in their practices
