O'Kane and Laura C. Barritt provides foundational knowledge on these topics. The text integrates fundamental concepts of general neuroscience with vital information on neural mechanisms of the orofacial region and associated pain pathways.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book is organized in two parts covering basic neuroscience and orofacial neuroscience. Part one is subdivided into four units on the central nervous system, brain and spinal cord gross anatomy, sensory systems, and motor systems. Part two features three units focused on orofacial structures and tissues, dental structures, and orofacial pain and anesthesia. Each generously illustrated, succinctly written, and consistently formatted chapter includes an introductory overview and learning objectives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Highlights\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThroughout the book, relevant clinical correlations emphasize the relationship between basic neuroscience and clinical practice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConcise, high-yield illustrations, schematics, charts, and tables enhance understanding of general and orofacial neuroanatomy concepts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelpful overviews at the beginning of each chapter highlight key concepts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNational board style questions at the end of each chapter emphasize board-relevant information that enables self-study\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a must-have resource for dental students taking neuroscience during their first or second year of dental school.
