Color Atlas of Common Oral Lesions 4th Edition

"While many oral lesions are said to be "common", the individual doctor, hygienist or other clinical staff may not encounter them frequently. If a team member or the doctor can describe the lesion as for example a white patch, ulcer or multilocucal radiologic lesion, the atlas which contains over 600 color pictures and radiographs can be consulted as a quick simple reference to help establish the diagnosis or a list of possibilities. The reason for this simplicity is that the Color Atlas is divided into sections based on the clinical presentation of lesions and not by disease process. For example a white patch may represent infection such acute pseudomembranous candidiasis or squamous cell carcinoma. In addition, tables of differential diagnoses can be found in the back section of the book. If the disease process can be identified such as infection and a diagnisis established, updated common prescriptions are also included."
