This book aims to provide the dental student with a description of all the gross, neurological, and developmental anatomy (apart from that of the dentition itself) necessary for the practice of dentistry and its major specialties. It is designed primarily as a textbook for the undergraduate student who is pursuing a practical course in topographical anatomy, but contains enough detail for the postgraduate dentist reading for additional qualifications. This book is intended for undergraduate dental students, practicing dentists (medical students studying head and neck anatomy).

 MUST HAVE for Dental Students Esp. NBDE PART I, May 27, 2008
By Brian S. Lee

I'm prepping for NBDE I, and I'm really glad I found this book. It's essentially all you need for the Anatomy Section. It's a tough book to read but when you understand it, you're in a position to teach your classmates.
BRS Anatomy, First Aid NBDE, Decks don't even come close to the depth and effectiveness of this book. It covers all the major systems you need in the anatomy section, including neuro and embryo,(with obvious emphasis on the intratemp, pterygo, oral, and pharyngeal regions.)
I have trouble remembering structures and their location without understanding their fxns. That's why Netters or Clemente just doesn't do it for me, there's no explanations. This book is the best because it ties up structure with fxn, which in my opinion is the right way to learn anatomy.
For example: When other books just tell you 1st order neurons of pain and temp of the head and neck synapse on trigeminal gang except for proprioception, this book gives you pictures on why proprioception is the exception. Shows how it goes straight up to synapse on the mesencephalic nucleus. But before all that, this book will give you a general neuroanatomy overview on major sensory and motor systems. So you actually understand the crap you're reading. Not just memorizing words.

This is a very practical and comprehensive book for dental anatomy, giving a complete overview of the subject, rather concise in certain difficult area of the subject like neuroanatomy, a good introductory book for dental student which I recommend strongly.
