This book is aimed at providing knowledge of basic physiology in a concise form to first year dental students. The book includes all the topics from the syllabus laid down by the Dental Council of India. They have been simplified with tables, diagrams, and flow charts for easy understanding.The basic functions of different systems of the body, their control and clinical importance have been emphasized to provide a base for students' understanding of medicine.

The book fully covers the syllabus prescribed by Dental Council of India and presents a thorough exposition of physiology for undergraduate students. The exposition is systematically divided into eleven sections. Each section begins with a brief overview highlighting the topics covered. The subject is then explained in a graded manner with a large number of diagrams, flowcharts and tables to facilitate an easy understanding. About the Author : - Dr.(Mrs.) Indu Khurana, Associate Professor, Department of Physiology, Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences, Rohtak, India. She has a rich experience of more than 25 years of teaching and research. She has to her credit the discovery of a new reflex 'the oculodepressor reflex (ODR)' and three distinct patterns of oculorespiratory reflex (ORR), (British Journal of Ophthalmology, 1997). On account of her contribution to the field, her biographical profile was included in the Marqui's 'Who's Who in Science and Engineering'.

This preparatory manual is a single source reference for postgraduate exam preparation. Intense efforts have gone in preparation of the book to make it complete in all aspects. In-depth coverage of every subject in the form of synopsis is the highlight of the book. To enhance rapid reading, quick learning facts have been framed as an effective learning tool. Multiple-choice questions have been designed to suit both national and international competitive postgraduate entrance examinations.

Essentials of Medical Physiology highlights essential and relevant content of physiology with absolute clarity and includes concise step-by-step explanations complemented by numerous tables and abundant illustrations. The text has been organized systematically into eleven sections: General Physiology, Nerve Muscle Physiology, Blood and Immune System, Cardiovascular System, Respiratory System, Excretory System, Gastrointestinal System, Endocrinal System, Reproductive System, Nervous System and Special Senses. Each section has been subdivided into various chapters. This book fulfills the needs of medical as well as dental students. Its conciseness makes it the preferred book for students of alternative medical sciences (Ayurveda, Homeopathy, etc.) and allied health sciences. This book will also be very useful for students pursuing Masters in Physiology.

Master the basics of Dental Histology, Anatomy, Embryology and Physiology. Fundamentals of Oral Anatomy, Physiology and Histology comprises of four units: Oral Histology, Oral Anatomy, General Embryology and Oral Physiology sections elaborating essential concepts in altogether 38 chapters. Oral Histology emphasizes on the morphology and variation of teeth as a part of dental anatomy. The dental histology section describes the development of teeth and associated tissues including enamel, dentin, pulp, cementum and periodontal ligament. Salivary glands, oral mucosa, maxillary sinus, temporomandibular joint and tissue preparation comprise the rest of the second unit, Oral Anatomy. The third unit of Embryology explains the development of the oral and paraoral structures with details of general embryology from fertilization onwards. Physiology is the fourth unit which constitutes important topics related to year one of dentistry that include mastication, chewing cycle, saliva and calcium phosphorous metabolism. - Conforms to the syllabi prescribed by DCI - Offers an easy-to-follow format for each chapter with numerous tables, flowcharts, photos, and simple neatly labelled line diagrams and histomicrographs - Summarizes important take away points under Synopsis in each chapter - Provided Review Questions in each chapter for self-appraisal - Hand drawn histology diagrams
