Our aim is to provide a pocket book of bioscience which is tailored to the needs of dental students. Our approach has been to provide knowledge that is relevant to clinical dental practice and is up- to- date. We want clinicians to reflect on the biological principles and mechanisms, which we hope will encourage deep learning. Science is essential to understand the signs and symptoms of any patient’s disease and the clinician- scientist will be able to offer clear explanations when proposing treatment options to a patient. Most undergraduate programmes now include some early introduction to dentistry alongside biosciences, but until now that change has not been reflected in textbooks. We aim is to bridge this gap and show directly the relevance of the biology to the clinician. The previous handbook on this subject, the Oxford Handbook of Applied Dental Sciences, edited by the late Professor Crispian Scully, had separate sections on physiology, pathology, anatomy, and the rest. This new handbook seeks to integrate the topics and focus more closely on their clinical relevance so readers will want to supplement their reading of this handbook from other texts, especially for detailed anatomy and cell biology. The thirteen chapters lead the reader through the major body systems. In most cases, a one page opening is a succinct summary of a topic, enriched by diagrams and illustrations. The authors have many decades of experience in clinical dentistry and learning and teaching where we have aspired to an integrated and evidencebased approach. The Oxford Handbook format is ideally suited to the dental undergraduate and has proved very popular and practical for students. It is also hoped that clinicians who are seeking to revise their understanding of biosciences or are preparing for higher clinical examinations may find this a useful starting point.
