Description
This practical handbook has been developed to assimilate a large amount of useful information into a readily accessible format. Covering both oral medicine and oral surgery, it provides clear and concise details of drugs, dosages and drug interactions. A successor to Professor Scully's "Patient Care" published by the BDJ in 1989, and written to complement the very successful "Oxford Handbook of Clinical Dentistry", this book will be of use to dentistry undergraduates in their clinical years and to postgraduate trainees and practitioners especially those in hospital dentistry.
