Textbook of Periodontics, 3/E for BDS Final Year and MDS Students | 1300+ Colored Images with GTR, Implant Surgery, Viva-Voce and University Questions: 1

Textbook of Periodontics, 3/E is a comprehensive, only-Indian-referenced periodontics textbook covering both undergraduate and postgraduate dental curricula. Structured across 12 sections and 70 chapters, it moves from the normal periodontium, classification, and etiology, through the pathology of gingival and periodontal disease, diagnosis, nonsurgical and surgical therapy, implantology, and a dedicated interdisciplinary section connecting periodontics with seven other dental specialties. This edition covers recent advancements in periodontics including lasers, photodynamic therapy, tissue engineering, gene therapy, nanotechnology, periodontal vaccines, minimally invasive surgery, and piezosurgery. Every topic is reinforced with self-explanatory colour diagrams, figures, and clinical images (1,300-plus in total), easy-to-understand line diagrams and flowcharts, and colour-coded informational boxes that break down complicated concepts. Each chapter closes with Viva-Voce questions and recent university exam questions, and online support material adds clinical-case videos and an implant-related surgical case series. Who This Book Is For: BDS Final Year Students: covers the full periodontics course from normal periodontium and etiology through nonsurgical and surgical therapy for university examinations. BDS Students: works as a comprehensive undergraduate reference across every stage of the periodontics curriculum. MDS Students: extends into implantology, regenerative osseous surgery, periodontal microsurgery, and recent advances for postgraduate-level study. Practicing Dentists: provides implant surgical protocols, laser techniques, and interdisciplinary treatment guidance for chairside clinical decisions. Why This Book Helps: Bridges UG and PG learning in one text: a single comprehensive volume takes readers from foundational periodontal biology through advanced implant and regenerative surgery. Turns concepts into visuals: over 1,300 colour diagrams, figures, clinical images, line diagrams, and flowcharts make complicated periodontal concepts easier to retain. Prepares directly for exams: Viva-Voce questions and recent university questions are built into every topic, rather than left for a separate guide. Keeps pace with modern practice: dedicated coverage of lasers, implants, guided tissue regeneration, and recent advances like tissue engineering and piezosurgery reflects current periodontal therapy. Connects periodontics to the rest of dentistry: a first-of-its-kind interdisciplinary section links periodontics to prosthodontics, endodontics, restorative dentistry, orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, oral surgery, and psychiatry. Key Features: 12 sections, 70 chapters: spans normal periodontium, etiology, pathology, diagnosis, nonsurgical and surgical therapy, implantology, and interdisciplinary dentistry in one text. 1,300+ colour diagrams, figures, and clinical images: self-explanatory visuals support every major topic. Dedicated Implantology section: covers implant basics, surgical protocols, guided bone regeneration, sinus elevation, and peri-implantitis management. Interdisciplinary coverage of 7 specialties: the first periodontics textbook to structure its content around periodontics' relationship with prosthodontics, endodontics, restorative dentistry, orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, oral surgery, and psychiatry. Viva-Voce and University Questions in every topic, plus online case videos: built-in exam preparation alongside a clinical-case and implant surgical video library. Read more
