Anesthesia Considerations for the
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon
Matthew Mizukawa, Samuel J McKenna & Luis G.Vega
Although office-based anesthesia administration has been essential in the evolution of
outpatient surgery, it is becoming more complex as people live longer and with more
comorbid diseases. The purpose of this book is to strengthen the margin of safety of officebased anesthesia administration by helping practitioners determine whether the patients they
treat are good candidates for office-based anesthesia.
This book is organized into three sections. The first section provides a review of the principles
of anesthesia, including the pharmacology of anesthetic agents, local anesthesia, patient monitoring, preoperative
evaluation, the airway, and management of emergencies and complications. The major organ systems of the body are
reviewed in section two, and the most common comorbid conditions that affect these systems are described in terms
of their pathophysiology, diagnosis, management, and anesthesia-related considerations. Section three reviews patient
groups that warrant special consideration in the administration of office-based anesthesia, such as geriatric, pediatric,
pregnant, and obese patients. Spiral-bound and featuring tabs for quick and easy reference, this important book
belongs on the shelf of every clinician who provides anesthesia in the office setting.

Oral Pathology in Clinical Dental Practice
Robert E. Marx
While most dentists do not perform their own histologic testing, all dentists must be able
to recognize conditions that may require biopsy or further treatment outside the dentist
office. This book does not pretend to be an exhaustive resource on oral pathology;
instead, it seeks to provide the practicing clinician with enough information to help identify
or at least narrow down the differential for every common lesion or oral manifestation of
disease seen in daily practice as well as what to do about them.
Organized by type of lesion, mass, or disease, each pathologic entity presented includes
the nature of the disease; its predilections, clinical features, radiographic presentation,
differential diagnosis, and microscopic features; and the suggested course of action
for the dental practitioner as well as the standard treatment regimen. In keeping with
the concise nature of the text, all but the rarest disease entities include at least one photograph to illustrate the clinical
condition. This book distills the comprehensive information from Dr Marx and Dr Diane Stern's award-winning pathology
reference text (Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology: A Rationale for Diagnosis and Treatment, ed 2[Quintessence, 2012]) into
practical guidelines for restorative and general dentists everywhere.

Tooth Preparations: Science & Art
Clovis Pagani
Well-executed cavity preparation remains the primary hallmark determining the success
of indirect restorative procedures. This book details the basic principles and sequencing
of cavity preparation and outlines the different preparation designs indicated for a variety
of clinical situations. With a focus on biologic care, preservation of tooth structure, and
precision, the author provides special guidance on incorporating these principles into
daily practice, and the sections on instrumentation underscore how to improve clinical
dexterity and concentration.
By featuring sophisticated 3D illustrations throughout to detail each preparation design
step by step, this book elevates this fundamental part of operative dentistry to an art
form.
