Product Description:  
 
Teeth are among the best sources of evidence for both identification purposes and studies of demography, biological relationships, and health in ancient human communities. The anthropologist's specimen may be a cast that a dentist has taken from a living mouth, or actual teeth from an archaeological site or forensic case. This text introduces the complex biology of teeth and provides a practical guide to all essential aspects of dental anthropology, including excavation, identification, microscopic study, and tooth age determination. Dental Anthropology is a concise yet comprehensive resource designed for students and researchers in anthropology and archaeology.

5 out of 5 stars.  If your future career involves teeth..., September 25, 2009
If your future career or profession involves teeth, then this is a text for you. A comprehensive guide to anatomy, variation, development, and disease on the subject. Includes a collection of drawings, pictures, and graphs to assist with learning. A great addition to the textbook arsenal of any bioarchaeologist, forensics student, or dental student.

5 out of 5 stars.  Great for bioarchaeologists, forensics or dental students!, March 22, 2008
This book was written by my professor at University College London. It is really thorough and it explains everything you need to know about teeth.
