Description

Many diseases can have an impact upon oral health and/or the safe delivery of dental care. Consequently, oral health care providers need to be comfortable with assessing the risk of providing dental care to their patients with systemic disease, as well as the evaluation of oral conditions that may represent manifestations or consequences of systemic disease.

Risk Assessment and Oral Diagnostics in Clinical Dentistry aims to enable the dental practitioner to comfortably and capably assess when medical conditions may impact dental care and diagnose oral conditions using routine testing modalities.

This clinical guide contains succinct and detailed text with visual aids regarding how to obtain and perform diagnostic tests, how to interpret these tests, and the implications of test results upon the management of medically complex dental patients and patients with oral conditions.

Colour photographs show conditions, testing equipment, and test results. An appendix highlights the ten most common oral medicine disorders encountered in dental practice.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

This book offers a solid overview for generalists at any level on common oral diseases and a practical approach to managing medically compromised individuals. While it serves as a useful metric for risk assessment in dentistry, some readers may find more in-depth discussions in specialised texts like Oral Medicine and Medically Complex Patients by Lockhart (Wiley-Blackwell, 2013).
