Dentists require a comprehensive understanding of drugs used in clinical practice in order to safely prescribe and manage medication use in their patients. Handbook of Dental Therapeutics provides practical coverage of drugs in dentistry. This text draws together the latest recommendations for Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand, covering common drugs dentists administer and prescribe, perioperative management considerations, oral adverse effects and drug safety. Dedicated chapters on how therapeutics affect children, pregnant and breastfeeding women, and elderly patients enable readers to prescribe and administer medications across the lifespan. Concisely written, the text is a practical guide which includes dosage recommendations and practice points. Diagrams, graphs and tables summarise complex information to ensure readers have readily accessible information on the drugs most commonly used in dentistry. Handbook of Dental Therapeutics is an essential text that equips dental students and dentists with succinct, clinically relevant information about all aspects of drugs in dentistry.
