This book discusses on the “Practical Pathology for Dental Students”. The book is structured in a way that it aims to hone the practical and diagnostic skills of the learner in pathology in a user-friendly manner. All exercises have listed key features point-wise for easy understanding and reproducibility, leaving out theoretical details for learning from the main course book so as not to lose focus on key diagnostic and practical points. Brief and point-wise text in each exercise are richly supported by labelled line-drawings with corresponding specimen photograph and microscopic image for conceptual learning. Thus, the book “Practical Pathology for Dental Students” should become a useful companion in a practical class by the students to learn the subject effectively. A new feature in the revised edition is the addition of a few key questions for viva voce at the end of each practical exercise. These questions are expected to help the learner in quick revision and rapid self-assessment before their examination and for facing viva voce confidently.
