This
unique book describes highly complex biology of the oral cells and
tissues in a refreshingly clear and straightforward style. It presents
basic science and clinical correlations that demonstrate the
significance of traditional basic science to oral biology and clinical
dentistry.

Preface

Since the deciphering of the genetic code, scientists have gained
enormous insight into how cells and tissues function. It is now evident
that our understanding of the structure and function of oral cells and
tissues must be based on knowledge of subcellular mechanisms common to
most cell types. More than ever, the basic sciences are essential in
oral biology, helping us to understand the nature of oral cells and
tissues in health and disease. This book seeks to bring our
understanding of the basic biology of the oral cavity to bear on the
daily clinical practice of dentistry. To accomplish this, whenever
possible, the chapters conclude with sections on the basic science and
clinical correlations of the information presented. It is my hope that
individuals seeking an overview of the cellular components of the oral
cavity, whether they are dental students or researchers new to the
biology of the oral cavity, will find this book to be a useful
framework for their studies.

Keeping up with the flood of new information and defining the book’s
boundaries were constant challenges. Nevertheless, I have made every
effort to make the text as comprehensive and as straightforward as
possible for students at any level. I was inspired to write this book
because of the pleasure I get from learning about new discoveries and
from knowing that there are students who, although anxious to study the
purely clinical aspects of their education, see and appreciate the
profound beauty of the cells and tissues of the oral cavity.
