Product Description

Product Description

This illustraed text aims to offer dental hygiene students and practitioners the knowledge of head and neck anatomy they need. Explanations and examples demonstrate the spatial relationships of structures: anterior-posterior, medial-lateral, superior-inferior. The text offers study aides including chapter outlines and objectives, a glossary, identification exercises, review questions (with answers at the end of the book), a pronunciation guide and tables. It emphasizes specific anatomy of the temporomandibular joint for an understanding of disorders associated with it. Clinical chapters on use of local anesthesia and the spread of dental infection are included. Clinical photographs and line drawings depict specific anatomical structures.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good for first year dental students, 8 May 2003
This book is good to put all the essential anatomy learn into a dental prospective, but as a pure anatomy book the organisation may be difficult. It has the basics, such as a chapter on blood supply which goes through the main vessesls for example branches of the external carotid artery and what they supply. But if you're looking for text on a specific area, such as paranasal air sinuses along with the blood supply and nerve supply, this isn't the book you want. I used this after having read the core anatomy from a more traditional book, as the chapter on anaesthetics was good for exam questions. Same with the chapter on dental infections. Apart from that, I don't recommend this for essential anatomy; other books are better for that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Book, 30 April 2007
By Mr. S. Docherty (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I thought this was a fantastic book on head and neck anatomy. It covers every aspect including: surface anatomy, osteology, TMJ, vascular system, lympathetics etc etc.

The clarity of the pictures are fantastic. There are a good size and everything is in colour so it is easier to understand. The labels are very clear.

As a dental student I found that this has helped me greatly and would recommend it highly.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good...but could be better, 17 Jan 2008
By Mr. M. J. Hicks (Stockport, Manchester) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This was the first anatomy book I bought. It's at a reasonable price (unlike anatomical basis of dentistry at £60!!!) and has great illustrations. However, some of the data is misleading.

The insertion and origin points of some muscles isn't exactly right. You'll find that the authors go into great detail telling you where abouts the muscle is, but don't actually tell you the exact point which is hard because it confuses you. In Manchester Uni, our anatomy spotter is 1 minute per station, and 3 questions per station and you simply don't have the time to write a description of the point where a muscle inserts, you just want to write it and be done.

However, it is the only anatomy textbook I have found to have a good section on Lymphatics of the head and neck - with pictures! It also has a chapter on the TMJ which is useful and Local Anaesthesia. The book is split into systems (i.e. Muscular system, Vascular system, etc.) which is good because it makes things easier to locate.

My advice is to you is to buy this book - BUT make sure you have another anatomy book (Anatomical Basis of Dentistry is good - but pricey, Grays Anatomy for Students is good too) to refer to, because occasionally the data in this book is misleading.
