Oral medicine is a highly important clinical specialty that every dentist needs to muster very well because in daily practice he/she
will encounter a lot of patients with a wide variety of oral manifestations of systemic diseases.
Dr. George Laskaris from Athens University provides us the fourth edition of his excellent Atlas of Oral Diseases with a new focus on
diagnosis and treatment of oral manifestations.
This new edition has 43 chapters. Each disease is presented following the same structure: key points, introduction, clinical
features, differential diagnosis, pathology and treatment. After the presentation of the normal mucosal variants the text speaks
about development defect, mechanical injuries, chemical burns, thermal and electricity lesions, metal and other deposits, oral
complications of radiation and chemotherapy, contact allergic reactions, oral lesions due to drugs, gingival, periodontal, tongue
and lips diseases.
The author inform practitioners about many more conditions such as viral infections, oral manifestations of HIV and bacterial
infections, autoimmune and genetic diseases, immunodeficiencies, as well as benign and malignant tumors.
This fourth edition enjoys real success and provides the readers with a precise clinical description and numerous clear and
representative pictures from his personal collection.
It is a scientific book which represents the clinical experience of Dr. George Laskaris addressed primarily to dentists practitioners,
but also to dermatologists, otorhinolaryngologists, pediatricians, general internists, dental and medical students, and other
medical specialists.
