George Laskaris is renowned for his excellent Color Atlas of Oral
Diseases, one of Thieme s all-time bestsellers. This new title by Laskaris
represents the ideal companion to the atlas, providing a logical extension from
the diagnostic atlases toward treatment of the diseases described here.
Each disease is described in capsule form, with epidemiology, etiology, the main
clinical features, and the appropriate diagnostic tests. After this, a section
follows on general therapeutic guidelines, which involve topical or systemic
treatment, environmental factors and alternative or experimental treatments.
Finally, each report includes a section of the most important references on that
condition.
This efficiently conceived therapeutic guide to oral diseases will be
an invaluable aid for all residents and physicians who may be called upon to
evaluate oral diseases.
