Synopsis

This book provides the fundamental principles of human anatomy as they relate to the specialized needs of dental and medical practitioners. The author was driven to compile this work to address the urgent need for a resource that adequately detailed the relevance of anatomical knowledge to the dental profession. Breaking with tradition, the book provides a detailed understanding of the primary tissues of the human body, their properties and the roles they perform to support life. The author does not stop there but moves on to an examination of the vital organs, their functions, and their interdependency. This text also comprehensively examines the comparative anatomy of various animal groups, shedding light on how evolutionary adaptations influence the dental professional's work. The book builds on the notion that students and practitioners of dentistry need a deep understanding of anatomy to practice safely.
