Foreword
he textbook and atlas “Dental Pathology—A
Practical Introduction” occupies a unique niche
in dental-medical publishing. In fact, the book
aims to be a substitute for the famous book “Pa-
thology of dental hard tissues”, written and ed-
ited by the late Jens J. Pindborg, Copenhagen, for
which there has not been a successor for almost
40 years. Dental pathology primarily focussing
on macro- and microstructure of teeth and adja-
cent tissues is very speciic and fully understood
only by those who specialise in this ield or who
have developed interest in the “Organon dentale”.
he author, Prof. Pieter J. Slootweg, Nijmegen,
he Netherlands, has extensively been dealing
with dental, oral, and maxillofacial pathology
during his entire career. His expertise and life-
long experience with this specialty in pathology
has resulted in an authoritative and encyclopae-
dic work presented in this book. he author has
elegantly described what some consider a process
diicult to understand, namely tooth formation.
An overview about macro- and micro-distur-
bances of tooth form and dental hard structure
is given. Also, the book deals with alterations
acquired ater tooth eruption, disturbed tooth
eruption, disorders of dental pulp and periodon-
tal tissues. In addition, the book extensively deals
with odontogenic cysts and tumors.
Besides the concise text, an especially strong
feature of the book is the many photomicro-
graphs and clinical photos, which provide the
reader with an unusual level of high quality visual
documentation.
I truly believe that this book represents the
most extensive review in the ield and that it ills
a gap in the dental and medical literature. It cer-
tainly should become a standard of reference for
dental students as well as researchers in the ield.
