Publisher's Synopsis
Laskaris' Color Atlas of Oral Diseases, a highly successful diagnostic
atlas now in its third edition, aids physicians in solving diagnostic problems
and preparing their own outline of treatment. The entire spectrum of both local
diseases and oral manifestations of systemic diseases is presented. Each disease
is illustrated by outstanding representative clinical color photographs
juxtaposed with a concise text delineating the clinical signs and symptoms.
For the third edition, the text has been thoroughly revised to keep pace with new
concepts in oral medicine. The structure of the text has been clarified and made
more practically useful, with references to etiology, clinical images,
differential diagnosis, labaratory diagnostic tests, and therapy guidelines.
Also new in the third edition: four new chapters, and more than 240 new,
exquisite illustrations of lesions and pathologic conditions affecting the oral
cavity.
