Book description
This book has long been awaited by professionals - a complete,
modern, practical and usable book on the application of homoeopathy to
oral medicine, general dentistry and oral surgery.
It will not be out of place on the bookshelf or in the office of any
dental surgeon, committed homoeopathist or medical doctor.
The first and lesser part of the book is a basic introduction to the
principles of homoeopathy. The second and greater part is in
encyclopaedic form, being a combined therapeutic index of orofacial
disease and materia medica of virtually all the therapeutic substances
mentioned in the text. It also constitutes a self-tuition course in
dental homoeopathy. Appendix One suggests the structure for an initial
dental pharmacy in clinical practice, and Appendix Two contains a
modern view of the important matter of mercury toxicity.
Dr Colin B. Lessell, Vice-Chairman of the British Homoeopathic Dental
Association, brings before you a digestible text of homoeopathy as
applied to conservation, periodontology, orthodontics, prosthetics,
implantology, endodontics and orofacial surgery. The important matters
of nutrition and the recognition of disease within the mouth are also
considered in some detail.
