Buy this book......take it from me!!

As a student studying under B.J.Moxham in Cardiff University you may think that I'm biased in my judgement but in all honesty this book will be extremely helpful in your first year. In addition to this it is one of very few books that will also get you through a huge porportion of your second year course as well!! It contains all the anatomy of the head and neck you will cover in your first year and then in your second year it will take you through your oral ecosystems course(development of teeth etc.). To sum it this book is good value for money and concise and I would definately suggest you buy this as very few books can be said to be useful in your first and second year!!

berkovitz- oral anotomy , histology and embryology
|
|
as a first year dentist i would highly recommmed it to those out there who are 1st years too. the book is well detailed, maybe more than it should be , but it covers everything that it needs to do. the use of many histological and other general pictures helps immensely in understanding many of the topics. if your looking at buying berkovitz i would suggest you look at oral bioscience by d.b ferguson. it covers many of the same topics, maybe more to the point, but can be hard to understand. due to lack of diagrams/slides.

the best oral biology book...no doubt
|
|
This book written by Dr berkovitz is absolutely excellent, there are lots of illustrations, each one with detailed information explaining what can be seen. The book is laid out very well and in a logical and easy to follow manner and the best thing is that it is written in english, by that i mean the language which most students understand and not the language that scientists speak. Dr bekovitz is probably the most leading scientist in this area and this is reflected in his book. This is excellent for people studying Oral anatomy but also for those who are just interested in the topic as it starts from the basics and proceeds in an easy to understand manner to the more detailed aspects. The only disadvantage is that it is quite big and doesn't fit into any normal size bags, but then the upside to that is that people on the trains read the title and think you are really clever!!
