Comprehensive and easy-to-understand, Foundations of Periodontics for the Dental Hygienist, 5th Edition equips dental hygiene students with up-to-date, evidence-based coverage of periodontal anatomy, the periodontal disease process, and classifications of periodontal disease.

Rich with engaging learning features and student resources, the Fifth Edition has been revised and updated throughout to reflect the hygienist's increasingly important role in periodontal therapy and to help students confidently apply what they've learned to clinical patient care situations. Updated content familiarizes students with the latest evidence-based information on host modulation agents, regenerative techniques and materials, the clinical use of lasers, and more. Current Classifications of Periodontal Diseases from The American Academy of Periodontology equip students for confidence clinical patient care. Comprehensive Patient Cases with clinical photos, radiographs, and periodontal charts cultivate students' patient care planning capabilities. Straightforward outline format helps students easily identify, learn, and review key concepts. Hundreds of full-color illustrations and clinical photographs reinforce concepts in vivid detail.
