George Laskaris is renowned for his excellent Color Atlas of Oral Diseases. This new title by Laskaris represents the ideal companion to the atlas, providing a logical extension from the diagnostic atlases toward treatment of the diseases.

The main purpose of the book is to satisfy the dentist's interest in the diseases of the oral cavity through a topographic approach. The atlas-like presentation follows a well-defined structure concerning etiology, gingival involvement, other involvements, clinical features, differential diagnosis and treatment. Excellent colour illustrations are explained and supported by a short and concise text.

This comprehensive reference offers an extensive collection of images for diagnosing and treating oral cavity diseases and systemic diseases with oral manifestations. Created by George Laskaris, a leading specialist in oral medicine, the work reflects decades of experience and meticulous documentation of thousands of patient cases, complemented by stunning photographs. Key features include over 1,000 high-resolution, full-color close-up photographs from a collection exceeding 130,000 images, alongside concise explanatory texts. The book is systematically organized, providing essential information such as diagnostic and therapeutic guidelines, disease characteristics, differential diagnoses, histopathologic findings, lab results, and treatment strategies. An appendix presents tables for differential diagnosis based on lesion morphology and color, as well as biopsy considerations. This atlas serves as a vital resource for physicians and dentists involved in oral disease management, and it is also invaluable for dermatologists, otorhinolaryngologists, pediatricians, internists, hematologists, and rheumatologists assessing oral manifestations of systemic conditions.
