Most practitioners have had extensive training in recognising the common and pathological diseases that may occur in the mouth caused by varies conditions that affect oral tissues in adverse ways, sometimes existing on a temporary basis and most importantly in some cases on a more permanent and perpetually destructive scenario. It is for this reason that all practitioners are fully learnered in this highly important subject. However, it may not be the case that we as practitioners come across most of the disease photographed in this section although it is an necessity to be continuously educated to recognise the diseases in order to, in some case to help patients at early stages immediately when particular conditions are visible. I would believe that most of my colleagues have got visual guide to help them assist in determining and recognising some of these conditions. In my practice, I have a fantastic guide that I refer to immediately when I notice an oral condition which, may not be something that I might find familiar or common and this reserve reference has in many cases since 1992 when it first become available to us saved my patients from further trauma and undoubtedly in one occasion a condition from exacerbating to any further major condition which may have metastasized to a point where it may have lead to a fatal result. If you are a practitioner on the website at this moment, I would recommend that a perfect manual to have at your finger tips in your nearest draw would be:
Soreness Extractions Bad Breath Plaque Oral Thrush Nausea Feeling of Fullness in The Mouth Bad Habits Facial Expression Infection Control TMJ/Mascular Chewing Ability Emotional & Physical Distress Gender Differences/Age Life Style Considerations Did you know? Histology & Pathology Under Construction
All the written descriptions below are in very brief form due to the prevention of self diagnosis of patients and improper or inexperienced diagnosis by practitioners not fully informed in these pathological diseases. It must be assured that it is prudent for the referral to a specialist in oral pathology.

This atlas is very limited. A simple STD such as gonorrhea, and some forms of tumors are not included in this book. It's OK for an amateur to purchase, but professionals should not buy this book or at least not rely on this atlas. On the positive side the book does give explanations and descriptions of what the lesion is, such as location, colour etc. It also has a self-assessment quiz on appendix IV with 20 questions to test your knowledge. Don't waste your time buying this atlas unless you can't find something better.
