General and Oral Pathology for the Dental Hygienist

From Dentistry Made Simple Dentistry Made Simple

A fundamental guide for students and professionals in the dental hygiene field. Authors Leslie DeLong and Nancy W. Burkhart organize the material into two primary sections that address general pathophysiology and specific oral diseases. The first portion explains how systemic issues like cardiovascular and endocrine disorders impact patient care, while the second portion utilizes a clinical classification system based on visual features to help identify mouth lesions. Each chapter includes practical tools such as case studies, clinical protocols, and differential diagnosis lists to support real-world application. By integrating scientific concepts with patient management strategies, the text prepares clinicians to perform thorough oral cancer screenings and adapt treatments for medically complex patients. This resource is further supported by an online learning platform containing review questions, image banks, and interactive media for both students and instructors.
