Ten Cate’s Oral Histology: Development, Structure, and Function, 2nd South Asia Edition

Ten Cate’s Oral Histology, 2nd South Asia Edition by Antonio Nanci provides a comprehensive foundation in the development, structure, biology and function of oral and dental tissues.

This definitive oral histology textbook covers general embryology, development of the head, face and oral cavity, tooth development, enamel, dentin, dental pulp, periodontium, oral mucosa, salivary glands, facial growth and the masticatory apparatus.

The book integrates modern cellular and molecular concepts to explain the genes and biological mechanisms involved in embryogenesis, tissue development, cell function and extracellular-matrix events. Clinical applications are emphasised throughout, helping students understand the relationship between normal oral histology and dental disease.

Detailed full-colour photographs, photomicrographs, drawings, diagrams and charts make complex histological concepts easier to understand. Its user-friendly organisation emphasises conceptual learning rather than memorisation.
