Description:

The present edition is a thorough revision of the earlier edition in accordance to the syllabus by Dental Council of India. As such, the biochemical complexity has been omitted, while incorporating a few new chapters. Special treatment has been given to chapters on metabolism, vitamins, minerals and hormones to make the book suitable for dental students. Latest information is given on the biochemistry of teeth—tooth structure; chemical composition of teeth; the role of vitamins, minerals, and hormones in the proper development of teeth; and the most common diseases encountered by dentists— dental caries, and the role of saliva in its etiology, and dental fluorosis. This information will be useful to the students during their undergraduate study and even after they have completed their biochemistry examination.
